On display at the Stromness museum. Carved from whalebone and believed to be a child’s doll.

Was discovered at the famous Skara Brae site, and then spent years forgotten in a box at the museum before being rediscovered.

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.
