Submit ReviewIn the subfield of experimental archaeology, researchers use historic and pre-historic methods and materials to recreate different artifacts and items in the archaeological record. By doing this we learn how peoples of the past made the things we find during excavation, which adds to the context of the life people lived at that particular time period. This week we discuss 3 examples of experimental archaeology in the news including the boomerang as a multi-use tool, how large pots were created in Crete, and the reinterpretation of an artifact found at Sutton Hoo.
