Why do you reenactment / Living History
#17
All of those:

I want to experience the past.
I want to have fun with buddies sharing interest
I want to educate others about the past
I want to conduct experiments
I want to learn by doing
I am interested in making reconstructions

The principal reason is that this way the past can be made real (again, at least in some way) and experience it more actively, instead of just keeping it in dusty books, mossy ruins and poor lighted cabinets...those things were made for a purpose, those buildings were once new, and people lived, worked, and died like today.

In short, I see it as a sort of 3D History, it gives more depth and dimensions to it!
