On 7 October 2023 a conference was held at the Faculty of History and Philosophy at the University of Riga to celebrate ten years of the Baltic Experimental Archaeology Summer School. The school is organised by the society Latvijas Arheoklubs and is located on Lucavsala Island, in Riga, Latvia. A series of papers in both Latvian and English were given about experimental archaeology and its importance in exploring material culture and providing accurate interpretations. Papers were also presented about experiments that had been conducted at the school and current research projects.
