To the north of the church fragment, on the former monk's cemetery, the very well-preserved bones of a Lorsch monk from the Middle Ages were uncovered in October 2016. The following anthropological investigations provided astonishing clues in relation to the gracefully built man, around 45 to 55
This autumn break, from October 10 to 25, the open-air museum in Eindhoven will organize the medieval toy & play weeks. In 1560, the painter Bruegel made a beautiful print portraying many children's games the youth played during medieval times. Think of knucklebones, pasterns, hoops, and much more.
More than 30 professional and amateur companies of historical spectacles take part, divided into several categories: music, dance and song; theater and street performance; animal training and show; crafts and demonstrations; military art; various activities and services; technique and accessories; living history sites.
All Saints' Procession
All knights can be trained to become a real knight on September 26-27: after demonstrating that you can fight sword and are courteous and creative, you will receive a certificate to take home. The ladies - what is a knight without a lady after all - have plenty to do. They can felt bracelets or learn archery. In the Middle Ages, the ladies were of course not allowed to learn swor
Autumn is uncomfortable and dark? We show that there is another way! We brighten up this evening with self-made, colorful lanterns. The lantern procession goes through the entire open-air museum, which is romantically illuminated by torchlight. If you want, try out your Halloween costume. Fairytale stories about chestnuts, told comfortably around the campfire, round off the day.
Textile researchers have a challenge when looking for information in our field, which is part of what makes it fun! We have to think outside the box, looking in places others may not consider. Bring your favorite sources, ask about what you are looking for, or tell us your stories of the search. Join us on Discord in the textile chat on the EXARC channel on November 27, 2021, at 1500 CET.
The discovery of weapons is an inherent part of archeological material. Most of these artifacts were more than just simple tools for hunting or impressive status symbols – they were actually used for disputes. This fact is proved by injuries on skeletal remains, strain patterns on weapons and through historical sources.
The Israeli Forum for Experimental Archaeology was established in order to connect archaeologists, field and laboratory researchers and practitioners of ancient crafts, with an emphasis on collaboration, knowledge sharing and public engagement.
Our members come from a range of fields; academics, Living History groups, museum workers, educators, craftspeople, archaeologists and more. Thus, we aim to link persons involved with experimental archaeology in Israel and create a place to share, consult and learn, along with other experts engaged in the field. In addition, we endeavour to create experiment databases and coordinate experiments, workshops, and conferences. Our dogma is that through experimental archaeology, people from different backgrounds can advance research by sharing knowledge, experience and facilities.
