I have worked as a field anthropologist in several historic and prehistoric sites, in Spain (roman and muslim context) and Israel (Natufian site of Ain Mallaha-Eynan)

The goal of SIAH is to study and promote historical bows, their characteristics, and the appropriate techniques for their correct use in the Iberian Peninsula.
Additionally, our focus extends to the cultural aspects of these historical periods and backgrounds associated with each type of bow.
We believe it is crucial to bring visibility to historical archery. Hence, we decided to establish an association dedicated to the rigorous study of this practice—a space that consolidates knowledge for anyone seeking to initiate or delve deeper into historical archery.

Svibna Institute is a non-profit non-governmental organization that has been operating in the field of sustainable rural development since 2005. The impetus and inspiration for our work is the nearby Ajdovska Cave near Nemška vas, an archaeological site – a den of a cave bear from 50,000 years ago, a sanctuary and necropolis from the younger Stone Age, and at the same time also a natural value of national importance – a karst cave and a summer refuge for a maternity colony of bats.
I started experimenting with bronze casting, ceramics, glass beads, smithing and other things while studying Prehistoric Archaeology in 2013.
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).
Dugout canoes are one of those enigmatic objects from the past that really encapsulates a place and time. For us here in Somerset, traversing the waterways and reed swamp across the Levels during the Iron Age is defined by these craft.
