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.

Yo dawg, I heard you like jars so I put a jar in your jar so you can jar while you jar.

Okay that's funny, it's from the fourth century and it got a laugh out of me

Imagine being bored and be like "I'll make a jar in a jar" and then somehow make someone laugh a couple of centuries later.
