Silicite - Flint - Chert - rawmaterial determinations
work in museums - archaeological mediation

 

My first area of expertise is archaeological raw material analysis. I specialise in determination of the origin of silicites (flints, cherts) from which archaeological artefacts are made.

 

The second main area of expertise is archaeological education in museums and outdoors. I develop educational concepts, content for exhibitions and work with groups of adults and children.


In addition to my self-employment, I also work for clients in an employment relationship.
