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]

Where did they get the coconut? That's a temperate zone.
~~A swallow - it could grip it, by the husk!~~
Coconut cups became popular in Europe precisely because they required a far-off and exotic material to be made of. "Look at this neat thing I'm rich enough to afford!"
Cool!
