How has experimental archaeology affected the way we understand the past? James discusses five of the studies and influential people who have been involved in the discipline over the years. Dr. Dilley gives a short overview of his own experimental research into early Upper Palaeolithic hunting technology. His research focussed on a fascinating period called the Aurignacian, when modern humans were moving into Europe and making tools from new materials.
