involving a bunch of like minded individuals who get together to re-create a slice of time from our medieval past.
Medieval reenactment is not something that you can do effectively by yourself. It is a group activity. The more people the better.
Participants choose to dress up as a character from the middle ages.
The middle ages were also known as the medieval times.
Medieval reenactment is also known as medieval living history and refers to a period of European history which occurred between
the time frame of 1000AD to 1500AD.
Those who are involved with Medieval reenactment usually belong to a group who focus solely on one period of history of about
20 or so years, although some groups cover are not so time specific and can cover a time period of 200 hundreds years or so to
reflect the varying interests of their different members.
Different groups have different rules. Some fight and some don't. Some act and give performances for the public. While some
will put on craft displays showing various medieval crafts such as leather working, blacksmithing or armor making.
Some groups focus on jousting where knights charge at each other on horseback with lances with the occasional rider being
knocked off his horse (unhorsed).
