Guided tours at the ArcheoScienceFest
Gain knowledge while stretching your legs? That's possible too! None other than Hans Huisman and Erik Graafstal invite you to join them for a walk and become wiser as you go.

Degradation walk - Walking around the ship
Hans Huisman
Max 25 people
Take a walk around the ship “De Meern 1” with Hans Huisman. During the walk, questions will be answered regarding the wonder of “Why has this ship been preserved?”. Questions such as “What happens to archaeological material in the soil?”, “How well preserved is well-preserved wood?”, and "What do you do with archaeological wood during and after an excavation?" will be addressed.

13:00 – 14:00, 15:00 – 16:00
Tour of the castellum and its surroundings
Erik Graafstal
Max 20 people
Join Erik Graafstal for a walk through and around the castellum and learn all about the techniques used in ‘the making of’ the reconstruction. Which (types of) data underpin the design of the inner courtyard and the appearance of the watchtower? And what were the findings from the on-site analysis of a sample from a foundation pile of Theater Hoge Woerd?
