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

That's incredible

Now I wonder, what was first? The shape or the metal/ ceramic tableware?

I mean, I feel like this is a very common shape for such tray. This thing looks like the material informed the shape of the tray. But maybe the shape comes from something else?
