I have been involved in reproduction of ancient textiles since childhood. I learned to spin on my great-grandmother's spinning wheel over 40 years ago, and have always been fascinated by pre-industrial textiles.

I am teaching Textile & Costume history at Academies in Amsterdam. I am working since 1994 in reconstructing artifacts, clothing and ancient textile technics with special interest in the Mesolithic period.
I first ventured into the history and heritage industry with my husband in 1988, presenting living history for heritage and education. As part of this, we presented both the social and military aspects of the past.
My PhD in Archaeology, at Edinburgh University, examined the objects interpreted as clay drums, from the Trichterbecher culture (TRB - 3300-2700 BC). During this time, I constructed models of the different drum styles in order to investigate the techniques of attaching a drum-skin.
My name is Wulf Hein. My main field of activity is the manufacturing of professional reconstructions of all kinds of prehistoric finds, from a bone sewing needle to a one-to-one scale Neolithic house.
