Knowledge Gathering and Dissemination of the Smelting Process Experience to the Wider Community

Abstract

This contribution discusses ways in which the Koprivnica Town Museum took part in the TransFER project, which had the task of communicating with the public and disseminating the gathered knowledge and skills to the wider audience. It will initially look at the beginning of the project and the circumstances surrounding it, the first attempts at experimental archaeology, the process of mastering the technological processes of smelting, and, finally, it will present the results through various communication tools. These tools basically included workshops and exhibitions in which numerous users of cultural and tourist facilities in Koprivnica and beyond were visually and interactively involved.
