Luke Winter is the director of Historic Concepts Ltd.
I did my PhD at the University of Bradford researching fuel use in the past. My work developed a method of identification for archaeological fuel using comparative analyses to modern analogues. My research is focused on the Orkney Islands, Scotland.

Historical and Archaeological Interpretation
I am a PhD student of Eurasian research department, South Ural State University (Chelyabinsk, Russia), Director of experimental archaeology centre “Archaeos” (Chelyabinsk, Russia) and Member of the Archaeological Foundation Board “Arkaim” (Russia).
Kernavė archaeological site, inscribed into UNESCO World Heritage List in 2004, is an open-air exhibition created by nature and man over many centuries.
The association Bacrie was formed in 2007 from fans of history and archaeology. Its aim is to present and popularize prehistoric history on the territory of the Czech Republic.
The association deals with the life and technology of hunters, first farmers, bronze metal smelters and first ethnic groups – Celts, Germans or Slavs. Bacrie is engaged in research activities and its main project is the building of the Prehistoric settlement Krivolik – archaeological open-air museum and an experimental archaeological center.
Krivolik shows the development of human history, from the advent of modern man (Homo sapiens sapiens) (36,000 BC) up to the Early Middle Ages (900 AD). It goes about the main parts of our history – the culture of mammoth hunters, the transition to agriculture (Neolithic Revolution) and the beginning of metal processing. At the end of prehistory we have the first written report on our territory; we know the first names of the tribes and the rulers of some events.
A visit to the Basotho Cultural Village, which nestles at the foot of huge sandstone mountains in the Eastern Free State, will give you a deeper insight into the lifestyle of the South Sotho from the 16th century to the picturesque present.

The Village regularly hosts art exhibitions as well as live stage performances at the sandstone amphitheatre. Here are also traditional dance and music competitions sure-casing local talent in cultural music by school children and community groups. The art gallery boasts work of local artists and a permanent photographic exhibition of the building process of the village and litem' art in the Eastern Free State.
A guided tour of rock carvings in the flashlight glow is an extraordinary experience. At night in the trail of the light the carvings raise out of stone and clearer and more detailed than in the day.
Midsummer is ancient history in the Nordic region. Already in ancient times, the longest day, the summer solstice, was an important feast. We celebrate the return of summer, fertility, mystery and love. On Vitlycke museum, we celebrate this day with an exciting and mysterious program.
