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 tainos used wooden clubs to minimize the chance of killing their opponents. I wonder if this weapon can be used the same way, while giving you the option to kill. Only injuring your opponent didn't work out well for the tainos when the Spanish came
I always thought the Lakota war club was a bit more impressive for its simplicity and appearance. A fucking river rock strapped to a stick and thrown with deadly accuracy.
Should have been very effective . Is like a manual bullet
