Research

 

Our ideas have come from many places, and we would like to acknowledge several of them.  Here are some of the English Language sites which we have referred to in this website.  (If you have other good ones you wold like us to add, please send an e-mail.)

The local educational sites referred to on this site include:

www.htav.asn.au

http://home.vicnet.net.au/~earlyart/

The images of ancient world research in this site are taken from:

www.museumoflondon.org.uk/

www.colchestermuseums.org/

www.camulos.com/virtual/castle.htm

The medieval European images in this site are taken from the above, and:

Resources we use regularly...

We subcontract the following regularly, and highly recommend their work.

Cirque Mystique for juggling and other circus skills.

Early Arts Guild for Brass Rubbing and Musical Performances.

 

What we don’t provide…

We are teachers who do education programs.  We are NOT re-enactments who walk around talking 'foorsoothly'. We only rarely do public entertainment displays, or performances for large groups, and usually only then if they are educational in nature - such as the State Library Illuminated Manuscript Exhibition. (Though if we can't help you ourselves, we can often recommend those who do.)

If you are seeking weddings, or television work, or your school wants just a show and tell lecture to a large group (rather than our focus on small group education sessions), then these companies may be able to help:

Dance and Music Performance presentations, the Early Arts Guild: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~earlyart/

Weddings and public displays:  www.yoretimes.websyte.com.au

Film props and public displays: www.historyupclose.com

Re-enactment Groups….

There are many recreation and re-enactment groups, covering many historical periods.  Here is the most chld friendly and probably the biggest of the Medieval re-enactment groups available in Victoria:
