Son yıllarda yeni bir gelişme atağında bulunan ve Büyükşehir statüsüne getirilen İzmit’te, peş peşe açılmakta olan büyük alışveriş merkezleri, yat limanı, buz pateni spor tesisi, Kartepe turistik kayak tesisleri, Kocaeli Eğitim Vakfı spor tesisleri yerli ve yabancı turist sayısını arttırmış olup, bu ziyaretçilerin kentin geçmişi izleyebilmek için, arkeoloji müzesi gezme istekleri, bir arkeoloji müzesi oluşturulmasını desteklemektedir. Kentin ihtiyacına yanıt veremeyen ve yenisi yapılan eski adliye binasının kent içindeki uygun konumu, depremden etkilenmemesi, binanın yapısal özellikleri ve hazır bir bina olması nedeniyle arkeoloji müzesi olarak ideal bir yapı olacaktır.

Emerging cutting-edge technology has been a factor in the changes of many disciplines. This change has also beenobserved in archaeology, particularly in the eld of visualization. A short time before the merging of technologyand archaeology, revival drawings of archaeological remains used to be done by using free hand drawing andtechnical drawing. However, thanks to new technological advances, archaeologists can transform their obtaineddata into realistic simulations in a computerized presentation, and can enjoy an experience before the excavationat the site, as well as be able to present to visitors an opportunity to experience the living conditions and cultureof a settlement in an interactive and encapsulating framework. In a computerized 3D model, this study attemptsto reconstruct the Ayanis Citadel, one of the most magnicent castles of the Kingdom of Urartu which lasted inEastern Anatolia for nearly 300 years from the 9th century. Although many parts of Ayanis have been uncoveredthroughout more than 30 years of excavations, there is still no general opinion about the overall appearance ofthe inner castle. Since there are still many areas that remain unexcavated and with unsolved architectural details,with technological support this attempts to present a possible appearance of the citadel. Within the scope ofthis study, technical and archaeological details of the project will also be presented with a video presentation.
