Hi,
I thought i would be appropriate to introduce myself before posting anything here.
My name is Thomas, I am from Holland. I study history at the university of Leiden.
My interest lies with testing historical theories with practical means.
Last semester i studied on a theory about stirrups (medieval period, i know). During my study of this theory i had some great help from a jouster, who proved my theory by putting it to the test in real life.
So reenactment has caught my eye as a way to test historical theories.
Cheers, Thomas.
