Historical Reenactment

The accurate recreation of history in all its forms, military and civilian, to further our knowledge and connection to the past.

 

My other great interest beside coins and other historical items is Historical Reenactment, or Living History. I am a member of the New Varangian Guard, a reenactment society dedicated to reproducing all aspects of life in the 10th to 13th centuries, focusing on cultures who had contact with the Byzantine/Romaion empire at the time. In addition to this I have a deep love of plate harnesses, particularly that in the German style from the years 1450 to 1550.

It is my intention to update this website with picture of myelf as I amass my kit, pictures of other items of interest, snippets of information and links to good reenactment sites. At the moment I will just have three sections on the various kits I am working on, in order of priority.
