Bronze Age
Historisches Handwerk L. Intichar (AT)
We provide demonstrations of historic crafts at medieval fairs and sometimes schools.
We provide demonstrations of historic crafts at medieval fairs and sometimes schools. Our current main focus is textile dyeing. Trained in history and archaeology, we started historic craft demonstrations as spare time activity and in order to not lose contact with our academic professions. Demonstrating historic crafts has also been a preferred way to continue the focus on experimental archeology developed during studies.
Zavod Svibna (SI)
Svibna Institute is a non-profit non-governmental organization that has been operating in the field of sustainable rural development since 2005. The impetus and inspiration for our work is the nearby Ajdovska Cave near Nemška vas, an archaeological site – a den of a cave bear from 50,000 years ago, a sanctuary and necropolis from the younger Stone Age, and at the same time also a natural value of national importance – a karst cave and a summer refuge for a maternity colony of bats.

Workshop: Bronze & Iron Age: Dugout Canoe
Dugout canoes are one of those enigmatic objects from the past that really encapsulates a place and time. For us here in Somerset, traversing the waterways and reed swamp across the Levels during the Iron Age is defined by these craft.
