Newcomer Information

The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) is an international medieval and Renaissance reenactment group, focusing on recreating and researching pre-17th-century European history.

The Students for Creative Anachronism at the Colorado School of Mines, also known as Scola Metallorum, is a chapter of the SCA within the Denver-Metro area or the Barony of Caerthe, which is itself a chapter in the Kingdom of the Outlands.

Most any activity which was done during the Middle Ages or the Renaissance is reenacted in Society. Some of these activities include armoured combat, fencing, archery, costuming, calligraphy and illumination, embroidery, singing and music, dancing, cooking, brewing, gaming, leather working, performance art and most other arts, sciences and crafts. This is by no means a comprehensive list of possible activities, but a general overview of what is avaiable.
