children learn prehistoric hunting in Ehringsdorf

children have the opportunity to discover the hunting techniques of the Stone Age at a workshop of the Museum of Primary and Early History in Thuringia. Based on throwing spears, spear sling and arrows, you will learn how to successfully hunt mammoth, rhino and other animals.

The workshop will take place in Weimar on Wednesday, July 17th and is aimed at children from the age of seven. The event starts at 10, 11.30 a.m. and 1.30 p.m. The participants showed which prey was killed in Ehringsdorf 230,000 years ago.

In good weather, the workshop is held on the archaeological open -air area in Ehringsdorf, and it takes place in the museum in bad weather. Children pay a contribution of 3.50 euros, while adults have to pay 5 euros. Interested parties can register on 03643/818331 or by email to museum@tda.thueringen.de.

In a time when modern hunting techniques are far from those of the Stone Age people, this workshop offers a unique opportunity for children to get an insight into prehistoric hunting life. Through practical exercises and educational information you will develop an understanding of the challenges and skills of the hunters at the time.

This workshop not only conveys historical knowledge, but also creates a connection between the past and the present. By getting to know the techniques and strategies of the Stone Age hunters, they can deepen their appreciation for human evolution and their survival in accordance with nature.
