_____Workshop: In the shield workshop
I'm going to be doing a Facebook Livestream relating to the archaeological evidence for nalbinding in the historical Viking-Age. There have been many discussions over the years as to where people get their interpretations of nalbinding from for Historical Reenactment and Living History.
The Research Center for Interpretation and Experimental Archeology (Pôle de recherche, interprétation et archéologie expérimentale, PRIAE) is a international initiative.
Research, interpretation and experimental archeology center - its main objective is to increase the knowledge about the musical practice of Antiquity and the Middle Ages, as we ll as the inventory, study and valuation of artefacts adjoining.
Julian Cuvilliez is researcher in Archea-Musicology and reconstruction specialist of European chordophones of the Antiquity and middle ages period. He is founder of the Research Center and Interpretation and Experimental Archaeology.
Bones, legs, horns, antlers and teeth - it's wonderful what you can use from animals. When there was no plastic, for example, combs and buttons were made from antlers and were accordingly expensive.
Horn is elastic and becomes soft when heated - not only bow ends are made from it, but all kinds of everyday devices.
Activities for all ages, meet Vikings from across the world showing their crafts and selling their Viking Age replica goods. Vikings arriving early at Foteviken for the market will use the Viking town as a gathering spot for craftsmen. Here they will exchange knowlegde and teach various crafting techniques.
