Event Review: Experimental Archaeology in Denmark 2024

From the 8th to the 10th of November 2024, the Viking fortress Trelleborg welcomed researchers, students, and craftspeople for three days of celebrating experimental archaeology. This was the fourth annual meeting of “Eksperimentel Arkæologi i Danmark”(EAD) [Experimental Archaeology in Denmark], following the success of meetings at Ribe Vikingecenter, Middelaldercentret, and Bork Vikingehavn. It was the first time the meeting was held on Zealandic soil, and at a UNESCO World Heritage site, no less. Participants from both Denmark and Norway attended. True to the tradition established at the three prior meetings, attendees could arrive on Friday, while Saturday and Sunday were dedicated to discussions on fascinating topics related to experimental archaeology.
