Historical Artifacts

1194 readers

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

We might just have to call in the lockpicking lawyer.

“I let my kid help one time and he lost the damn key. It’s my own fault really. I just hope that key turns up again soon.”

  • The owner, probably.

I guess it was standard practice by Quick Lube to over tighten them even a thousand years ago.
