The Archeopark
 (BY AUSILIO PRIULI)

 
     
    The Archeopark* is a great open air interactive park created to make us relive our past through the reconstruction of prehistoric settlements; it allows us to cover 15,000 years of history and to learn about the ancient Camunnians and the Po and Alpine people.
In the Archeopark of Boario T. you can: explore a cave where paintings of prehistoric men have been reproduced; observe how the Mesolithic nomadic hunters organized a shelter under the rock; advance into linen fields followed by a flock of goats, go into a Neolithic farm and hold the farmer's tools; pause in the huts of the great village with pile-dwellings stretching onto the lake where the pirogues move forward by means of paddle strokes; go up the hill in order to conquer the "castelliere" (a prehistoric fortified village, built in a high place) and observe, in the artisans' village, weavers and ceramists who work using ancient techniques; go through the maze reconstructed on the ground of the engravings found in Luine, Capodiponte and Cimbergo.
The didactic aspect is particularly important in the visit at the Archeopark; in the workshops of experimental archaeology the visitors, guided by our cultural promoters, can plunge into the daily prehistoric activities: light the fire, use bow- and fly-wheel drills, hammer the copper, make clay vases, grind the corn and cook the bread, shoot with a bow, cross the lake with rafts and pirogues, spend one or more nights in the prehistoric huts.

* It is not a real museum, but a group of very accurate "reconstructions".
