Om Podcasten

Dive into the fascinating world of experimental archaeology, where scientists, craftspeople, sound-experts, musicians, artists and re-enactors come together to recreate the past. They investigate human activities from a wide range of eras, areas and civilizations. Their work involves both the use of traditional materials and techniques but increasingly also modern digital technology.Our three formats are ‘Encounters’ with experts within the field, ‘Showcases’ of the work and projects of EXARC members, and ‘Extracts’ from our quarterly EXARC Journal.
