Lyle,
It is my understanding some sort of software is used by the people
analyzing the Dead Sea Scrolls to connect the fragments. As well, several ancient
ruins have been pieced by computer analysis of the blocks. But I agree, it
would be great to scan in all the pieces of a cup or jar and have the
computer figure out where they go.

A couple of weeks ago I watched an episode of CSI NY. A memory stick
cover had been stomped and was in pieces. Each piece of it was scanned
and software manipulated it and put it back together.
Is this totally Hollywood or is this a potentially wonderful reality
for those of us who have excavated kilns for the edification of our
archaeological souls as a former mentor phrased it and have thousands
of potshards to mend?
