Norse Platters from Bornais, by Clara Freer & Ian Dennis, Cardiff UniversityEXARC
This paper is based on work by Clara Freer, Ian Dennis, Alan Lane and Niall Sharples on the assemblage from Bornais. Excavated by N. Sharples from 1994 to 2004.
A large settlement located on the machair plain of South Uist in the Outer Hebrides.
Occupation found to spread over five mounds with most mounds contemporary during the Norse period with about 50 – 75 people occupying the site.
It was Occupied from at least 5th century AD through to the 15tb century AD.
Occupation found to spread over five mounds with most mounds contemporary during the Norse period with about 50 – 75 people occupying the site.
Our objectives were:
# Understand the nature of platter production
# Consider manufacturing constraints (including the amount of clay in weight used, the temper, size, styles and different forms found on the Bornais excavations)
# Investigate their use as baking plates, how effective they are and to examine their durability
# Investigate gendered production through an examination of the size of the finger print impressions found on platters from Bornais
# Examine and compare our platters to the ones from Bornais

Growing thatch from ancient spelt: an experiment in mass-production at St Fag...EXARC
Experiments in growing spelt by Steve Burrow (National History Museum, Wales-UK)
Project aims
Rigour
We wanted to thatch our roundhouses with a material that was as close to the original as possible.
Sustainability
Thatching is very expensive, if we can learn how to grow thatch straw ourselves we can save a lot of money
Engagement
We wanted a project to which lots of staff and volunteers could contribute
Experimentation
Growing, harvesting and planting on a large scale involves many unknowns. We wanted to know what they were

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

2. EXPERIMENTAL ARCHAEOLOGY
“A sub-field of archaeological research which
employs a number of different methods,
techniques, analyses, and approaches within the
context of a controllable imitative experiment to
replicate past phenomena (from objects to
systems) in order to generate and test
hypotheses to provide or enhance analogies for
archaeological interpretation” (Mathieu 2002, 1).

Working script for experiments (Lammers 2005, 22)
• Define archaeological problem
• Hypothesis-testing or Hypothesis-forming?
• Structure: “static or dynamic” and “single experiment or
multiple simultaneous lines”
• Conditions
• Mid-evaluation: “check design” and “realisation”
• Preparation documentation
• Perform the test and document
• Feedback or comparison
• Ascertain analogy: check “uniformity” & “unambiguity”
• Conclusion
• Report
• Repeat test
