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.

From the display: French sculptor Emmanuel Fremiet merged the contemporary fascination with medieval imagery- particularly gargoyles- with his lifelong zoological studies.

Not gonna lie, if I was some bad, malicious spirit and I saw that guarding the threshold, I'd fuck off on the spot.
