This one was put up at a re-enactment camp, but used canvas covers.
Grass mats, bark, and hides were more traditional.

@Hunter, we called it a Mesolithic hut. Archaeologists found marks in de ground who were most likely from a shelter, 8500 years old. And we used those marks to build our hut.
What do you mean Enigma, 'we having a ball'? Nowadays we all live like that in Europe, did you not know...? :)

Far right....out of costume for the period...moving back to the 1760's.
Looks like y'all are a bit further back in history.....

Here you can see some stuff I made for a museum in Buitenpost (means Outpost) in the Netherlands.
By te way, the basketery is made by my wife. I often call her, Napewastewin. :D

Sorry, I will make sure my pics are a little smaller next time...:o
Nice work.
Thanks mate.
The picture size is fine, especially for us more "experienced" viewers that appreciate larger pictures....and print.Quote:

Very cool. What are the polished stones you are using, and also, how the hell did you get holes in them? It took me a week to drill a single hole into a Texas flint spearpoint once. (the one and only time I bothered to try it, I even used a diamond tipped drill and modern tools.)
You could use a hot nail... it's amber...:D
But I prefer a small flint drill. More authentic you see.
That is some amazing stuff. You and your wife are very talented.
Simply out standing.......and part of the fun.
Humans haven't changed much over the thousands of years......Still want and need bling.
One of my favorites....Take a guess what it made from.

Thumbnails need to be clicked...., than "back" on the page,... to get back, and some times have to re-load the thread.
Thanks for the format change.
