Field Smithy

Categorization
Date

500 to 200 BCE

Description

A field smithy is an essential accessory in any army camp. The soldiers can perform small repairs of their equipment, and produce metal pieces, such as spearheads and arrowheads, or caltrops. In our impression, we don't only craft military items, but mostly produce small utensils for ourselves, such as tools, or cooking utensils.

The forge is build from clay and is fired using reconstructed bag bellows.
