Hello! My name is Lucia.
I am a woman with wide interests and experience, and always looking for new challenges and learning opportunities!
I started experiments with the construction of coracles and other boats about twenty years ago.
I am an avid practitioner of traditional living skills and primitive technology of all kinds and have followed this interest into the academic field of Experimental Archaeology, in which I hold an MA in Experimental Archaeology and a PhD on the ‘Microscopic Analysis of Prehistoric Tanning Technol
.
I am an independent researcher with a specialisation in non-ferrous metals with a practical background in jewellery making and metalsmithing. My research ranges from smelting ores and exploring early technology, to replicating metalworking techniques from the Bronze Age through Medieval Period.
I first ventured into the history and heritage industry with my husband in 1988, presenting living history for heritage and education. As part of this, we presented both the social and military aspects of the past.
My interest is the craft and technology of making malt and beer brewing over the ages. Wine is fermented from grapes. Mead is fermented from honey. Both grapes and honey contain natural sugars.
I became involved with experimental archaeology while working at the Irish National Heritage Park during my bachelor studies and then pursued experimental research for both by MA and PhD (at University College Dublin), which focused on early medieval house reconstructions.
My PhD in Archaeology, at Edinburgh University, examined the objects interpreted as clay drums, from the Trichterbecher culture (TRB - 3300-2700 BC). During this time, I constructed models of the different drum styles in order to investigate the techniques of attaching a drum-skin.
I am an independent archaeologist working in cultural resource management in Arizona (Ph.D., Anthropology, UCLA, 1981), which mostly involves conducting archaeological surveys for companies or agencies planning activities that may affect archaeological remains.
