Sarcophagus of Tutankhamun to be modeled

http://www.dmnnewswire.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=33812
Specialist software company AutoDesSys, Inc. has announced the release of a new version of its 3D modeling and rendering tools which it says will be applied to the sarcophagus of Tutankhamun, using modeling and rendering processes, and new features such as smooth parametric modeling and cloning. If software is your thing have a look at the above URL: "form*Z is a cross platform design oriented 3D modeler that combines surface and solid modeling, polygonal and smooth (resolution independent) modeling, NURBS and parametrics. form*Z includes 2D drafting, information management, raytrace and radiosity rendering, animation, an open architecture with an API and script language that offer further means for customization". I had a quick hunt around the Web but I can't find anything else about this.
