Historical Artifacts

1313 readers

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

Looks like a billhook?

There's no edge on that "blade"

Sharp edge is on the other side of the blade

Hard to tell from the angle, but it doesn't look sharp either. Still, that makes more sense maybe.

Other edge* the other side means the back of the flat side.

The GEM SET JADE-HILTED KHANJAR is even more epic to look at!
