Living History

Graduating in 2012 from the University of York with an MA in Medieval Archaeology. My professional focus is on the archaeology of the Viking Age in the British Isles, concentrating on Viking Age Burial practices.

I have been a PhD scholar in the School of Archaeology, UCD, since 2016. My research relates to food, culture and identity in Ireland c. 1200-1500. My focus is on the culinary aspect of food, with a particular interest in bread.

I am a non traditional student reentering academia after a 30 yr Hiatus. I was a volunteer with the North Carolina Office of State Archaeology for several years in my earlier years. I have now decided to return to gain a degree in Anthropology and Geology.

I am a live interpreter focussing on theatre and storyteling methods in the museum and heritage context.

I have studied Prehistory at Leiden University and got my master's degree there. After a few years of excavating I turned my attention to archaeology & education.

Dr. in Quaternary and Prehistory with European mention in the University Rovira i Virgili of Tarragona (Spain) in collaboration with the University of Ferrara (Italy).

I started bronze casting in 2015 and continued to build my own equipment for public demonstrations on Bronze Age metalworking. 

I started working in the experimental field while still in university. Mostly I do reconstructions of iron objects and medieval shoes. These days I run the museums forge of the archaeological open-air museum "Bajuwarenhof Kirchheim", where I also present other crafts to the public.

PhD Student in the field of public archaeology at the University of Lausanne. My thesis is titled: “Potentiel et limites de l’animation et de la reconstitution historiques dans la transmission des connaissances auprès des publics”.

Photographer with a passion for history. I make lively scenes that show what life must have looked like in various time-periods. I have done this for museums for either (event) promotion or to liven up their exhibition.
