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

LOL, my dad carried a crescent wrench. He buried my Bowie knife in a tree so hard I could swing on it. You wouldn't want to be at the end of that man's flying wrench.

I had to read that three times. Your father used a crescent wrench for business and social occasions. He had the arm strength to stab a tree and embed the knife. He was a formidable opponent.
