Fieldwork in JordanAbbey will be travelling out to Cyprus and Jordan this February. She will be working with the Jordan Living History Association and the Roman Army and Chariot Experience team in the hippodrome in Jerash, with the aim of understanding and archiving chariot racing. Abbey will also have the pleasure of working with Mr Said Huneidi owner of The Royal Institute of Arabian Horsemanship, that will allow her to gain insight into the art of Furussiya, cavalry skills used by the Mamluks (13th– 16th c.). Abbey will also be hoping to track down some Arabian Oryx with the help of The Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature. She hopes that from this trip she can successfully bring the Jordanian culture and wildlife 'alive' using Dynamic Realism.
