Despite the damage caused by earthquakes, the ruins of the Sanctuary of Saint-Syméon (Syria) still stand proudly in the landscape and constitute the distinct but complementary phases of the archaeological study of the monument. The French Archaeological Mission of Saint-Syméon-le-Stylite, carried out by the CNRS-UMR 8167 Orient et Méditerranée and largely funded by the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, has been committed to the 3D rendering of architectural drawings starting in the early 2000s, thanks to a partnership with the École Nationale des Sciences Géographiques. The 3D data acquired over the years give us an important platform on which to apply a working protocol established in the case of La Résidence, a civilian building in the village of Télanissos. A wide range of techniques was applied and used to create a digital model as a support for the navigation and the interactive management of documentary sources that have facilitated a hypothetical reconstruction of the building. The NUBES information system has been used to describe, analyse, document and share digital representations of this building. The main contribution of this work is the combination of archaeological assumptions with documentation methods, in a dynamic and multi-user perspective.
