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

Friend! You look like you need some primo quality copper ingots, previously owned by an old lady!

Normally I would NEVER buy used copper, but... I like the cut of your jib! I'll take ten!

Excellent! I'll have them delivered to you with the next ox cart!
