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 [email protected]

Illustrations of the past should go to [email protected]

Photos of the past should go to [email protected]

I found this in their FAQ:

Currently our armour and equipment is supplied by Marutake Industries, a film and drama company that specialises in recreating samurai era equipment (www.yoroi.co.jp).

Here, I think it's this set:

The aesthetic is still pretty cool
