Historical Artifacts

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

Generally speaking, ruins should go to !historyruins@lemmy.world

Illustrations of the past should go to !historyillustrations@lemmy.world

Photos of the past should go to !HistoryPorn@lemmy.world

Lindybeige is a self proclaimed expert who just calls things as he sees it. He's no researcher, he's no craftsman. Your better of watching Todd from Todd's workshop, he does actual experiments with medieval weaponry.

But lb is just a blabbering buffoon with an British exceptionalist worldview who loves the aroma of his own petards.

Yeah. I just removed him from !nerd_streams@ibbit.at. If you're going to be a nerd, you need to know what you're talking about.
