Emma is currently an AHRC DLA funded PhD student at the University of Aberdeen doing a project titled: ‘Crafting Communities: Investigating Pictish Craft and Evaluating Community Engagement through Experimental and Experiential Archaeology’. She is researching the role of craft and craftspeople in the archaeology of the Picts of early Medieval Scotland, a project which will encompass analysis and investigation of original archaeological artefacts, experimental craft processes which will output replicas of artefacts and data from the experiments, and community outreach through workshops on the archaeological crafts.
