Sumario: | The OpenArch project provided the ideal opportunities to explore the anthropological nature of contemporary flintknapping skill acquisition within the context of open-air museums. The University of Exeter’s involvement in the OpenArch project—the ‘Dialogue with Science Roadshow’—was an opportunity for craftspeople and academics to share both practical and theoretical knowledge with one another. Since many of these exchanges had occurred in the presence of visitors, they served as a unique pedagogical tool in conveying past lifeways to the public. |
