Weapons

Since 2015, I have been a member of the Ukrainian historical reenactment club Chorna Halych. Until 2019, together with my club, I took an active part in historical festivals in Ukraine, Poland, Lithuania, and Slovakia.

Hello! I am a Masters student in Experimental Archaeology and Material Culture at University College Dublin studying lithics and atlatl spear-thrower technology.

Started back in 2010 as a founder member of the Ukrainian living history association Varuforos, which represented the military society of Kyiv in the mid-10th century.

As a retired pilot, I enjoy studying history and especially mythology and pre-historic era. Using methods of "strategic analysis" I try to approach the truth of ancient people's way of life and their technology.

I'm a Palaeolithic arcaheologist and British Academy Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Reading, Department of Archaeology. I am also part of the research team working on the wood remains from Schöningen.

I've started my activity in 2007, as a historical reenactor. After taking my bachelor's degree in natural sciences at Cagliari University, I went to England for a couple of years, I've then taken my Master's degree in Archaeology at the University of Ferrara.

I am a professional archaeologist working in the private sector in Ireland. I have been presenting Viking Age living history and material culture since late 1990. More recently I have been presenting Hiberno-Norse material culture with museum-quality replica artifacts from 10th-century Ireland.

I became interested in preindustrial technology through archery, boomerangs, throwing sticks, and spear throwers in the 1980s.
