Project Title: Weaving Time: Researching the prehistoric heritage of woollen textile production in Scotland through archaeological and creative practice.  

Amber will be using traditional archaeological methods alongside experimentation and creative practice to investigate the origins and development of woollen textile production in Scotland during the Bronze and Iron Ages. Her interests lie in how the act of making as well as the finished textiles contributed to prehistoric identities. 

Amber's research is funded by an ARCS studentship.
