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 [email protected]

The french form of beheading was to have them kneel upright during a beheading instead of putting their neck on a block.
It's how Anne Boleyn was decapitated by the swordsman from Calais.
