Prehistoric Clothing
In such a long age, in a very different world in these millennia, what do we know about what we were wearing then?

Forging is not just for strong men - with the active and professional help of our employees, older children can try out the forge and forge themselves.

It is an open activity without registration, however, depending on the number of visitors there may be a waiting time. Suitable for children and adolescents from age 11.

TraceoLab is excited to announce that the 7th CONEXP is coming to Liège from October 22-25, 2025! This congress is dedicated to all aspects of experimental archaeology, encompassing all periods, materials, and research questions. Save the date, and more information will follow soon!

Learn how to change flax to linen using traditional techniques. You’ll learn to be a ‘scutcher’ or a ‘breaker’ and change the plant fibre into a simple string. You’ll also have a chance to spin flax on a drop spindle and to learn some simple weaving techniques.

An interdisciplinary conference on the transformative power of fire.

Fire always leaves its mark and a wealth of information behind. Our aim is to bring together research on experimental archaeology, archaeomaterials, archaeobotany, anthracology, pyrotechnology, taphonomic investigations including burned bone, combustion features, or accidental burning. 

We invite everyone interested in experimental archaeology to participate in a two-week International Camp of Experimental Archaeology, connected with a seminar presenting the state of art of this method in Poland and accompanying use-wear workshops.
