Background |
Site Description | The old Friday Mosque of Baarah and and its minaret are said to have been constructed during the reign of Sultan Muhammad IV Dhevadhoo Rasgefaanu (r. 1692-1701 CE). The wooden parts of the present structure have been re-constructed with traditional methods. The mosque and minaret were repaired in 2002 by the National Center for Linguistics and Historical Research. |
Project Description | The Maldives Heritage Survey works to systematically inventory and digitally document the endangered cultural heritage of the Maldives. The materials documented through this work are critically endangered, facing both natural and human threats that jeopardize the survival and accessibility of historical information for this vital node in pre-modern global economic and religious networks at the cross-roads of an interconnected Indian Ocean world. The data made available here was collected by our Field Team using a FARO Focus S350 Lidar scanner, a Nikon D750, and a DJI Phantom 4 Pro drone for photogrammetry. |
