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
Who dares to challenge Sparta? Who? Who?
Ah but the owl is the symbol of Athens
Quality joke
I've found my new coffee mug! Owl with the Trogdor arm and consummate speckling. 😁
Owl people are real. This is confirmation. We once shared the world with bird people.
See, in ancient times they had to paint their memes on pottery.
That's its wing, not a shield.
The shield is partly visible on the right side, wrapping around the vessel and out of sight
Why bother with the slop?!
curiosity!
i'm a dead cat.
