As registration continues for EXARC's 2024 conference on Digitalisation in Open-Air Museums and Reconstructions, we are also very excited to announce the dates and location for our 2025 Experimental Archaeology Conference - EAC14.
I work as a skill-sharing instructor, artist, forage guide, forest-school leader and at the dolmen museum as a Stone Age living history ‘person’ with my daughter of 7 years old.
I've been doing this for several years now and I would love to expand my knowledge/network etc.
Celebrating the European Archaeology Day's every June has become a tradition in Āraiši Archaeological Park, and this year is no exception.
An experimental archaeological approach to the restoration of stoneware techniques such as stonemaking and use is important, but in recent years, a more diverse and extensive experimental programme has been incorporated into research. At the same time, it means that the methodological positioning of experimental archaeology in stone study is also diversifying.
Since 2019 I have been delivering living history sessions to museums with a group called Weorod. Within this group, I have interpreted and analysed dig reports from sites, mainly in southern England.
The Museu d’Arqueologia de Catalunya (MAC) is an essential national museum facility where history comes to life and time becomes a fascinating adventure. The museum integrates five archaeological centres that can be visited throughout the country: in Barcelona, Girona, Empúries, Olèrdola and Ullastret, Cultural asset of national interest (BCIN). In addition, the MAC also manages the Centre for Underwater Archaeology of Catalonia (CASC), based in Girona, the National Archaeological Repositories, located in Cervera, and the "Iberia Graeca" Research Centre, based in L'Escala. In 2009 the museum also promoted the creation of the Network of Museums and Sites of Catalonia, the Arqueoxarxa, which currently brings together twelve archaeological museums from all over the country.
A national reference centre in the research, conservation and dissemination of Catalan archaeological heritage, the MAC offers its visitors a rich and unique range of museum and cultural services and experiences, including visits to museums, open-air museums and sites throughout the country, as well as an extensive and varied programme of temporary exhibitions and complementary cultural and educational activities, which are constantly being renewed throughout the year.
From the appearance of the first hominids to sedentary farming life, the Stone Age is an epoch of superlatives. Reason enough to dedicate a separate ARCHÄOTECHNICA to this chapter of human history. We have therefore invited numerous international performers and scientists to help us get in touch with life during the European Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic.
