With Experiments Past the important role that experimental archaeology has played in the development of archaeology is finally uncovered and understood. Experimental archaeology is a method to attempt to replicate archaeological artefacts and/or processes to test certain hypotheses or discover information about those artefacts and/or processes. It has been a key part of archaeology for well over a century, but such experiments are often embedded in wider research, conducted in isolation or never published or reported. Experiments Past provides readers with a glimpse of experimental work and experience that was previously inaccessible due to language, geographic and documentation barriers, while establishing a historical context for the issues confronting experimental archaeology today. This volume contains formal papers on the history of experimental methodologies in archaeology, as well as personal experiences of the development of experimental archaeology from early leaders inthe field, such as Hans-Ole Hansen. Also represented in these chapters are the histories of experimental approaches to taphonomy, the archaeology of boats, building structures and agricultural practices, as well as narratives on how experimental archaeology has developed on a national level in several European countries and its role in encouraging a wide-scale interest and engagement with the past.ContentsIntroduction - Roeland Paardekooper and Jodi Reeves FloresThe History of Experimental Archaeology in Croatia - Andrea JerkusicHistory of Experimental Archaeology in Latvia - Arturs TomsonsExperimental Archaeology in Ireland: Its Past and Potential for the Future - Tríona Sørensen and Aidan O'SullivanExperimental Archaeology in France: a History of the Discipline- Guillaume Reich and Damien LinderExperimental Archaeology in Spain - Javier Baena et al.The Developmental Steps Of Experimental Archaeology In Greece Through Key Historical Replicative Experiments And Reconstructions - Spyros Bakas and Nikolaos KleisiarisThe Role of Experimental Archaeology in (West) German Universities from 1946 Onwards - Initial Remarks - Martin SchmidtRuminating on the Past: A History of Digestive Taphonomy in Experimental Archaeology - Don O'MearaThe History and Development of Archaeological Open-Air Museums in Europe - Roeland PaardekooperExperience and Experiment - Hans-Ole HansenExperimental Archaeology in Denmark 1960-1980 - As Seen Through the Letters of Robert Thomsen - Henriette LyngstrømThe Origins of Experimental Archaeology in Catalonia: The Experimental Area of L'Esquerda - Imma Ollich-Castanyer et al.Building, Burning, Digging and Imagining: Trying to Approach the Prehistoric Dwelling (Experiments Conducted by the National University of Arts in Romania) - Dragos GheorgiuFrom Ship-Find to Sea-Going Reconstruction: Experimental Maritime Archaeology at the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde - Morten Ravn et al.Experimental iron smelting in the research on reconstructionof the bloomery process in the Swietokrzyskie (Holy Cross) Mountains.
