Abstract:
This text is about a virtual anastylosis of Felipéia, capital of Paraíba, the first city founded in Brazil under the Spanish Crown in 1585, during the Iberic Union. Recently, infographics resources enabled the reconstruction, with great precision, of the old city’s ground plans from Dutch maps from 1634-37, and establish the first hypothesis of a tridimensional configuration of the city. Now, measuring and studies are being done to make possible a piece by piece virtual anastylosis of the buildings and, after that, a tridimensional virtual reconstruction of the historical city, which will enable virtual walkabouts on the streets, squares and buildings.
