"Living-history" performances are not only about military battle
reenactments. We have people doing living history at the Presidio of San
Diego excavation project. They show settlers and soldiers in their home life
activities, including cooking, making adobe bricks, and other such work.

Colonial Williamsburg and other villages run large living history displays.
In New Mexico, the Rancho de las Golonadarias is a set of living history
displays from the 16th throuth 19th century periods in New Mexico.

There is a directory of historical associations that lists living history
groups that should be in most college and university libraries.
