I started experimenting with bronze casting, ceramics, glass beads, smithing and other things while studying Prehistoric Archaeology in 2013.
Specialist in general experimental archeology (since 2012), with extensive practice in the Bronze Age and Neolithic.
When did I start? So long ago I do not exactly recall. I've done very early hunting since the seventies. I learned to make my own arrows and bows to historic models. I'm learning to knap flint into points. I've learned to use the atlatl and darts, the sling (Balearic in this case).
Before the invention of metal tools, hominids had utilised stone, bone and antler tools for millenia to undertake relatively complex carpentry tasks. Here in Somerset we are fortunate to have some of the best preserved Neolithic wooden archaeology in Britain, surviving in our peat bogs out on the Levels.
I am an historic tailor and study prehistoric clothing for 20 years. For about 15 years do living history of the early iron age. Beside all kinds of textile technics, I try all skills early iron age people needed to know as specialy concening fishing.

Sally is an archaeologist and freelance heritage educator with an MSc in Experimental Archaeology. She is also an Honorary Associate Research Fellow at Exeter University.
We don't know whether and how the people of the Stone Age in the Albersdorf area and elsewhere in Schleswig-Holstein celebrated the turn of the year. New Year's Day is a good date to explore the topics of the calendar and the turn of the year while taking walks through the Stone Age park and the Stone Age village.
Target group for this workshop:
1) Archaeology students – Bachelor 3, Master and cand. PhD.
2) Postdocs, professionals and amateurs.
I have recently completed a Graduate Certificate in Experimental Archaeology and Material Culture at University College Dublin. My background is quite varied and goes from I.T. through to Graphics Arts and onto Archaeology.
