💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🌋❄️ Volcanologists and historians are using #ice cores, #tree rings, and #medieval records to connect major eruptions to human events.

#Krakatau’s 1883 explosion, the mystery blast of 536, #Samalas in 1257, #Laki in 1783, and #Tambora in 1815, show how #volcano-driven cooling shifted #agriculture, #disease, and #migration. Historical #climate shocks like these offer clues to how modern society may handle rapid planetary change.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🧵🪡 The nearly 70 m (230 ft) #BayeuxTapestry is an embroidered #linen cloth ending abruptly with the death of King Harold at the Battle of #Hastings, leaving scholars to wonder if a final coronation panel was lost.

Ahead of its #London debut, organizers launched a #competition asking #children to stitch their own hopeful ending. Winning classes earn a trip to see the #artifact and visit the #battlefield.

The #shoes, stuffed to maintain their dramatic points, signaled wealth by making walking difficult, advertising freedom from manual labor. #Church leaders condemned the phallic silhouette as sinful vanity as post-Black Death social shifts spread the style widely.

Updated #introduction: I’m a #medieval historian working on the Early Middle Ages, with a focus on church history. I’m currently writing an introductory book on bishops, together with a colleague. Another project looks at the role of bishops in succession crises in England and Germany in 10th and 11th centuries – or rather on their perceptions in written sources.

I wrote a book on the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 and another one on travelling Scandinavians in Europe (my dissertation).

Rungholt was remembered as a drowned medieval town beneath the North Sea.

But Saint Marcellus’ Flood was not only a natural catastrophe.

Peat cutting, drainage, diking, and reclamation had reduced the coast’s resilience long before the 1362 storm arrived.

#FotoVorschlag: Pflasterkunst // Pavement art (or plaster art 😋)

Ein früher #Doorsday vom #Westportal des Magdeburger Doms. Es ist zwar keine portugiesische Pflasterkunst, aber immerhin. 😅 Das Mosaiklabyrinth ist dem mittelalterlichen #Labyrinth in der Kathedrale von Chartres nachempfunden.

For early #Doorsday, the paving in front of the western #portal of #Magdeburg Cathedral. It's not Portuguese pavement art, but close enough. 😅 The labyrinth is a nod to the medieval labyrinth inside Chartres #Cathedral.

Zum #SilentSunday heute die pittoreske Ruine des Klosters Eldena bei Greifswald, die bereits Caspar David Friedrich inspirierte. Die in Backsteingotik erbaute Abtei wurde um 1200 als 'Kloster Hilda' gegründet.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🏛️🔥 As record breaking #heatwaves hit southern #Italy, residents are turning to 14th century '#trulli' homes for natural cooling.

The #limestone structures use hydrothermal material properties and conical roofs to stay 7 to 14º C cooler than outside. Builders like Francesco Fragnelli in the Alberobello region say demand for both #restoration and new 'trulli' #construction is rising.

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🏰🛡️ In 1315 #Scotland's King Robert the Bruce decided to lay siege to #England's Carlisle Castle but retreated after just 11 days.

The siege is a prime example of how #medieval European #castles could stand firm against enemy onslaughts with concentric walls, round flanking towers, and active gatehouse defenses.
