| description | Experimental archaeologists often seek similar ethnographic studies when designing and preparing experiments. Observing how contemporary traditional artisans work, along with the materials and tools they use, provides invaluable insights to those who want to understand crafts and tools used in the ancient past. While contemporary artisans’ tools may have been modernised, being able to see the motions of the artisan’s hands, the sequences in which an object is made, and the choices made by the artisan all contribute to a more complete visualisation of crafts as they could have been performed in the past. |
