Celtic Bog Mummies: How did scientists use 2,000-year-old artifacts to solve a murder in an English bog? The Celtic Bog Mummies program from Kathy Ceceri’s book Around the World Crafts will entice young library-goers with a thoroughly gruesome mystery and send them home with an authentic-looking craft they made themselves. Travel back to the Iron Age, when Celtic warriors (including the fearsome Queen Boudicca) and secretive Druid priests ruled half of Europe. Find out how scientists use clues from the past to uncover the details of Celtic life, including their famous weapons and jewelry. And create a replica metalwork Celtic shield to wear as a pin! All participants in the Celtic Bog Mummies program get a handout with information, directions for the crafts, and other fun and fascinating books, websites and additional resources on Ancient Britain, the Roman Empire, bog bodies, and archeology. Fun for ages 8 and up! |
