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]

The 1,000 year gap really shows how fast things move now. Imagine not being able to date if something was made 1,000 years ago or today. Even a couple decades is a big change in what we use.

Just imagine how they would have drawn her if it wasn't a kids movie.

Back when I studied Anthropology in college, they would always talk about statuettes like these being evidence of a "cult of fertility". Years later I realized that's just fancy academia language for "porn".

I dunno. I don't think they'd have time for that while kung-fu fighting.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

It's possible that they were fighting because of something someone did earlier. It may (or may not) have had anything to do with being horny. I'm just open to the possibility that the one lead to the other, even if there's no archeological or lyrical record of it. Sometimes you find this stuff in the subtext.

Identifies as thick.

Thanks for the link. I genuinely thought it was too good to be from that era. And the expression on her face has a kind of attitude. Even in kids toys in my lifetime, I've only seen than in more recent figures as opposed to the 80's when I was growing up. Back then they were expressionless, even for figures from toys from well known franchises.

A question of artisan work vs. mass-produced goods, I think!
