The Society of Experimental Archaeology „Harjis” (PL)

The Society of Experimental Archaeology „Harjis” runs a project that aims to recreate outfit, weaponry and realities of the Przeworsk Culture, that is, people living in the first centuries of our era in the territory of present-day Poland. We began popularisation of historical knowledge about the Barbarian Europe in 2007. In our first active years we focused mainly on popularisation of archaeology. 

For the last three years the primary direction of our activities concentrated on widely understood experimental archaeology. Thanks to this attitude we have gained the official patronage of the Institute of Archaeology of the University of Lodz. In addition to the popularisation, we put special emphasis on scientific activity. We try to publish the results of our experiments regularly in scientific journals.
