Historical Artifacts

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]

Illustrations of the past should go to [email protected]

Photos of the past should go to [email protected]

Years ago I went to Istanbul. They have a Military Museum that has tons of helmets/armor/etc, like this piece, from all periods of Turkish history. A seriously amazing collection, if ever you go there.

There is also an amazing Archaeology museum that covers all the civilizations of that region. It's also amazing.
