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 !historyruins@lemmy.world

Illustrations of the past should go to !historyillustrations@lemmy.world

Photos of the past should go to !HistoryPorn@lemmy.world

Grim. Is that an allusion to Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac, or it it just to celebrate killing children in general?

Edit: Never mind. I just read the commented links and saw the other sides too. Cain and Abel and Moses and Isaac. Still grim.
