Experimental Archaeologist with a keen interest in education, outreach, and engagement. Co-host of the EXARC show podcast. I believe experimental archaeology is a fantastic tool with which to inspire and engage people.
My research focuses primarily on Medieval Archaeology and Castle Studies, and more recently upon Death, Burial and the Funerary Industry, whilst my teaching focuses on Archaeological Practice, Landscape Archaeology and Cultural Heritage.
My historical focus is on the early Middle Ages and I volunteer at the Lauresham Open Air Laboratory for Experimental Archaeology at the Lorsch Abbey World Heritage Site.
Join us for a seminar exploring Viking women of Norway and Ireland with speakers and topics including….
‘Discovery of Viking female burial, Finglas’ – John Kavanagh, Icon Archaeology.
We have lots of events going on at Dublinia all year round, but we have something special happening over this Halloween mid-term break.
On the long winter evenings, the residents of Haithabu gathered around the warming fire. Stories of sea voyages to distant lands circulated and anecdotes and sagas of heroes and gods were told. This winter evening at the Viking houses is entirely in keeping with this tradition.&
The historic buildings at St Fagans National Museum of History showcase 2,000 years of home building in Wales. From simple handmade homes of sticks and earth to a precision engineered aluminium prefab from The Second World War. Can this collection help us design new homes that are sustainable, long-lasting and resilient?
Wool was the material from which many Viking Age clothing was made. Felted, woven or needle-woven into warming textiles, they also determined the outfit of the Haithabu settlers. Long before knitting technology came to Europe in the Middle Ages, needle binding was a common method of textile production.
