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]

I feel like the other link you posted was pretty informative. It sounded like this particular design was probably mostly decorative. And it was the inspiration for this armour which is pretty cool: https://cdn.i-scmp.com/sites/default/files/styles/768x768/public/d8/images/methode/2019/03/26/b8c93022-46db-11e9-b5dc-9921d5eb8a6d_image_hires_180322.JPG?itok=ayb3KxEd&v=1553594610
