The Archaeological Experiments on Reconstruction of the 鈥楥ompound Bow鈥 of the Sintasha Bronze Age Culture from the Stepnoe Cemetery presents the joint work of a Russian archaeologist Ivan Semyan and his Greek colleague Spyros Bakas. The two archaeologists won a research 鈥淭winning program鈥 grant from 媚姬直播 and began to develop a completely authentic reconstruction of a Sintashta type bow. Merryn Dineley鈥檚 (UK) article considers how malt sugars are made and discusses a range of 鈥榤ashing in鈥 techniques from a practical, technical, and scientific point of view. Vincent van Vilsteren (NL) has studied the hypothesis that the damage to bronze cauldrons of the 16th to 17th centuries was done deliberately. Further there are articles on spinning, fresco mixtures, production stages in the engraving of a Roman gem of carnelian, the position of weaving in prehistoric British society, smelting experiments from Cyprus and research into Punic Amphorae.
There is number of book reviews, such as 鈥楻econstruction, Replication, and Re-enactment in the Humanities and Social Sciences鈥 by Dupr茅, Harris, Kursell, Lulof and Stols-Witlox, or 鈥榃eaving a Realm鈥, a book on Vietnamese clothing from about 1500.

Introduction
During the Bronze Age, the craftspeople of the eastern Mediterranean practiced a form of reuse or recycling: fragments of mortar were used as aggregates in lime mixtures intended for walls or floors (Shaw, 1973, p.222; Brysbaert, 2003, pp.168-173, pp.175-176; Jones, 2005, p.220; Brysbaert, 2008, p.118). Such a mixture was found in a house in the Akrotiri settlement of Santorini, in a part of the wall that was intended to be painted (Jones, 2005, p.220).
