Slartisfgh is never mentioned in The Bible, but it is here, during one of the early battles, that Matthew spontaneously became liquid.

can this thread also just be abs' cool corner for medieval stuff? because i was just searching medieval jewelry making and came across this great website and it reminded me that i also used to earnestly make websites such as these in 8th grade concerning the complicated ins and outs of arthurian myth.

B. to his venerable master A., greeting This is to inform you that I am studying at Oxford with the greatest diligence, but the matter of money stands greatly in the way of my promotion, as it is now two months since I spent the last of what you sent me. The city is expensive and makes many demands; I have to rent lodgings, buy necessaries, and provide for many other things which I cannot now specify. Wherefore I respectfully beg your paternity that by the promptings of divine pity you may assist me, so that I may be able to complete what I have well begun. For you must know that without Ceres and Bacchus Apollo grows cold.

oh, wait. did i never post about onfim??

http://www.goldschp.net/SIG/onfim/onfim.html

One of the most fascinating archeological finds in Russia has been the discovery of hundreds of "birchbark documents" (messages written on the bark of birch trees with a sharp stylus) that were created from the 11th to the 15th century.


When one was finished with the message, it was simply thrown into the mud, where the presence of water and clay created an unusually bacteria-free environment which preserved the documents. So, we have the ideal medium: cheap, easy to come by, and (thanks to unique geology) preserved for hundreds of years.


The drawings from Novgorod that we have found appear to all come from a Russian boy named Onfim, who lived at the end of the twelfth century or beginning of the thirteenth century in the city of Novgorod. By the estimate of the archaeologists who unearthed his works, he was around seven years old at the time that he made these drawings.


Image

In this first example, he started to write out the first eleven letters of the alphabet in the upper right corner, but got bored and drew a picture of himself as a grown-up warrior impaling an enemy with his spear. To remove any doubt about the identity of the warrior, he even labeled the person on the horse as "Onfim."


Image

Onfim liked to draw people and while his artistic aptitude may have been lacking, he was prolific. In the picture on the left, he draws his mother and father. In the picture on the right, he draws two children playing around a tree (one of them is hidden behind the tree).

Honestly I'd probably disassemble the rifle and scatter the prices far and wide, then just kick it with Onfim for a while
