Ancient & Traditional Technology (A&TT) is the research & execution of ancient, historic or traditional techniques which we are aware of from archaeology. It is the presentation of past crafts & techniques purely as behavior, and does not require costumed interpretation or an experimental goal.

Many public demonstrations such as bronze casting, iron smelting or stone and bone processing are Ancient & Traditional Technology.
