Conclusion
In this paper, we described a technique that can be used to investigate the acoustical characteristics of ancient structures. As a pilot study, a model of a plane rock wall was used. Both computer simulation and measurements were carried out to evaluate the validity of the proposed technique. A GUI-based simulation system was developed for visualizing the results of acoustical ray tracing.
