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

Those shoes look darn comfy
Looks like they're basically moccasins. Comfy in the right context but basically no support. They would need replaced frequently too...often enough that I wouldn't be surprised if common people did repairs themselves.
Carbatinae were indeed quick to wear out!
The rest of the outfit not so much
