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

I don't have a reason. I couldn't explain it. There's not a motive. I love this crab vase.

For me it's that it looks kinda happy? XD

Is there a reason for the dating being so ample?

Don’t want to piss anyone off by getting it wrong.

They didn't have to give it such voluptuous smacker but I'm glad they did.
