Twee stenen funderingen zijn nog tot 2 meter hoog overeind gebleven. Ook legden de #archeologen funderingen van huizenblokken (inclusief straten ertussen), luxueuze stadswoningen en een toren bloot. (Foto: gemeente #Nijmegen) /2

[Archaeo - Histories @archeohistories]

A 14th Century AD, brooch depicting three penises carrying a vagina, found in Bruges. Some pilgrims would wear metal badges depicting sexual organs, believing them to protect against disease. They really don’t make jewellery like they used to...

Archaeological excavations of water sites during the previous two centuries throughout the Schelde Estuary in the Netherlands, and along the riverbanks of the Seine in France and the Thames in England, have brought to light a large corpus of enigmatic leaden pilgrimage badges dating from mid-14th to the early-16th Centuries AD. In a small selection of the iconography of the curious corpus includes: ambulant vulvas on stilts, winged and crowned vulva pilgrims complete with pilgrims’ staffs and rosaries, couples having sex, and ambulant winged phalli. The few scholars who have attempted their study have variously labeled the badges as erotic, obscene, rude, naughty, and pornographic. The advanced study of the tokens provides a “unique, and still largely untapped, perspective on late medieval devotional practice, the border between the sacred and profane, [and] the social as well as apotropaic function of ornament.

These badges were brought to light during archaeological excavations of water sites throughout the Schelde Estuary in the Netherlands, the riverbanks of the Seine in France, and the Thames in England. A small selection of the iconography of the corpus includes: ambulant vulvas on stilts, winged and crowned pudenda pilgrims complete with pilgrims’ staffs and rosaries, couples having sex, and ambulant winged phalli. The few scholars who have attempted their study have labeled the badges as erotic, obscene, rude, naughty, and pornographic. The advanced study of tokens provides a contrasting interpretation. Ultimately, this thesis argues that the bawdy badges functioned as apotropaic, or protective devices, meant to safeguard their owners from the threat of the evil eye, which during the worst outbreaks of the Bubonic Plague, was thought capable of transmitting the disease.

Een #magneetvisser heeft zondag in de #IJssel bij #Kampen een compleet #zwaard (zo te zien een #rapier) gevonden. Het is ongeveer anderhalf tot twee kilo zwaar en circa een meter lang.

This oak door featured in Westminster Abbey is Britain’s oldest and only Anglo-Saxon Door.

The door has been standing for over 900 years, dating back to the reign of Edward the Confessor during the 1050s.

The door was cut from a single oak and now measures 6.5 feet high and 4 feet wide and leads into a small narrow room.

The top was almost certainly round-arched and would have been around 9 feet high originally.

Traces of human skin had been rumored to remain on the door, but it has been proven to be cowhide.

De #autotunnel bij #Stonehenge lijkt er nu toch te komen. Het #Hooggerechtshof in #Londen heeft geoordeeld dat de plannen door mogen gaan. Volgens de rechter heeft het Britse ministerie van transport zich "op een juiste manier gericht op relevant beleid".
