What We Provide
What is Re-Enactment & Living History?
Re-enactment is a unique form of performance art in which individuals or groups recreate historical events or eras, often highlighting military conflicts or cultural traditions. Re-enactors wear historically accurate clothing, use replica weapons and tools, and adopt the customs of the time to bring the sights, sounds, and spirit of the past to life.
Living history goes even further, not only portraying but also experiencing daily life as it was lived in the past. This immersive approach often extends beyond public events into private life, deepening our understanding of history.
It's not just about portrayal
It's about education
Sharing is caring
That’s why we’re passionate about passing on the knowledge we've gathered over years of research—into Roman equipment, battle tactics, military customs, and the everyday realities of ancient life.
Our work is inspired by historical and archaeological scholarship, and enriched through hands-on experience.
History isn’t just a record of the past—it’s a mirror for the present. Many of today’s challenges, innovations, and human behavior have parallels in ancient times. By understanding the past, we gain valuable insights into the future.
The journey never ends!
There is always more to uncover—new discoveries, fresh perspectives, and ever-growing insights.
History is always evolving

Our partnership is built on mutual support, shared goals, and a love for discovery. We find happiness in both big achievements and small moments—experimenting in the kitchen, staying active outdoors, planning new adventures, or creating visual stories. Good food, health, and the simple pleasures of everyday life hold a special place in our hearts. Above all, our strong connection and shared curiosity keep our bond thriving and make every experience meaningful.
Only through change,

Projects
Living History
We enjoy stepping beyond modern comforts to live as our ancestors might have, experiencing aspects of their routines. This hands-on approach deepens our appreciation of history and enriches the authenticity of our work.
Craftsmanship
With a hands-on approach, we recreate historical items, always striving to improve our gear using authentic materials and techniques. While a perfect reconstruction is hardly possible, our dedication brings us ever closer to the originals.
Ancient Places
We travel to historical sites, immersing ourselves in the atmosphere of ancient worlds. Each journey deepens our understanding and appreciation of the past, while providing inspiration for our ongoing projects.
Research & Archaeology
Staying current with archaeological discoveries is a cornerstone of our work. We constantly research and integrate the latest findings to ensure our projects reflect the most accurate knowledge available.
Fighting Training
Regular training in combat keeps us active and sharp while enjoying sports at the same time. Sword and spear practice not only builds strength and skill but also deepens our connection to the eras we study and portray.
Numerus Brittonum
Committed to authenticity, we push the boundaries of the group Numerus Brittonum.
We set high standards through research, craftsmanship, and immersive experiences, driving Numerus Brittonum’s growth and success, while still maintaining a fun camaraderie.
Other Creative Pursuits
Photo- & Videography
Through photography and videography, we document our journey and bring history to life. Our visual storytelling captures both our own experiences and those of others, sharing them with a wider audience, or for personal use if requested—Preserving memories for generations.
Webdesign & Programming
As much as we are inspired by the past, we also embrace the present by exploring the digital world. Creating websites and soon other digital experiences for you to discover and enjoy—Blending historical inspiration with modern technology.
Music Production
We have a background in modern dance music, which predates our focus on Reenactment & Living History. While our musical projects are not yet linked to historical themes, we look forward to exploring ways to integrate music production with our historical endeavors.
