Being sick in the Iron Age

On Saturday 8 July, you are welcome to visit The Iron Age Farm in Dongen. Here you can see and experience how people lived in the Iron Age. The farm is a wonderful tangible example of this. But what do we know about the less tangible customs and practices. This time we will delve into the topic of being sick. How did people treat the sick and injured in the Iron Age? And what did they know about healing? What rituals would have been done? Well and less fun: what if someone died? An afternoon involving herbal knowledge, gods and rituals from an Iron Age perspective. Will we see you then?
