Newer Era

I am a PhD candidate in Analytical Chemistry under the Analysis of Cultural Heritage and Archeological Objects research group at the Institute of Chemistry, University of Tartu, Estonia.

My name is Gerald A. Livings and I am a Jewelry Educator.

I have done historic textile demonstrations since 2001. These range from pre-history through industrialization. I have worked in living history since 2015 doing a variety of historic skills including textiles, draft power, farming, and other historic handcrafts.

I have studied Archaeology (MA) of North-Western Europe and Heritage Management and (Medieval) History (BA) at Leiden University. From a young age I have been involved with re-enactment of the Napoleonic Wars and Dutch Revolt/Eighty Years War.

As a trained archaeologist, I have 30 years of experience in analysing (metal) slag from archaeological excavations in several European countries. To understand the process of slag formation it is necessary to have both theoretical and practical knowledge.

Giulia Previti is a research fellow in archaeology and post-classical antiquities at Sapienza University of Rome. Her interests focus in particular on medieval archaeology and the study of material culture, with a special focus on ceramic materials.

I am a retired veterinary pathologist with a long-standing interest in sustainable technology and historic agriculture. I have 30 years experience interpreting farming to the public (the picture is from the 1990s).

I am an independent artist working directly with the public, using the traditional trade of silhouettes. I interpret  and demonstrate the role of portraiture, and society experiences with portraits, chiefly between 1700-1920 (Modern Era).
