I started in 1997 to work at Ekehagens Forntidsby, where I got in contact with flintknapping. Worked there for 8 years as schoolinstructor, prehistory technologies as flintknapping. I worked with Uppsala, Lund and Malmö universities with different Flint/stone experiments.
I’m Jen. I’m a student of History, Heritage and Archaeology.
I’m an archaeologist, currently working at the Traceology and Controlled Experiments (TraCEr) lab, MONREPOS, Archaeological Research Centre and Museum for Human Behavioural Evolution, RGZM. I'm interested how past human populations during the Pleistocene used their stone tools.

The craft weekends are entirely devoted to the special historical crafts from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages. Every weekend there is a different theme, such as pottery, blacksmithing or clothing and textile processing.
For anyone interested in crafts or history in general, these are the weekends you don't want to miss!
