For some reason on the Lemmy apps, I've used both Boost and Connect, you can't upload multiple photos. So this is the only way.
It works beautifully on sync just FYI
Oh thank you I'll try.
When I first heard of this, I immediately thought of the hero from Irish mythology, Nuada Silverhand.

I wonder if the Irish myth is a recollection of a famous Bronze Age king with this prosthesis.
Oh what a cool piece of history.
All I know is that it's fun to say curculln.
Nuada yo business 😎
Original motivation for Jaimie Lannister? Lol.
That is pretty cool!
I think the story is actually much more interesting! Archeologists have a bunch of theories, including the prosthetic, but there is no proof or anything that this was actually a prosthetic. Other ideas include a sceptre or a cultural artefact used to offer things to gods.
It's the earliest occurrence of a bronze hand and they are still searching for indications what it's actual use was.
