Between 1300 & 1362, as temperatures fell & the #LittleIceAge set in, #weavers in #Greenland made thicker cloth, #WeftDominant. Fascinating #LongRead on #archaeology, the evolution of #spinning & #weaving technique, & #textile as #money, the findings of Michèle Hayeur Smith. Also mentions Iceland's exports of #fish, which reached the #LadyOfClare in Suffolk!

@DecaturNature That's only available in UK, here's a link said to work for 1 more day: https://wetransfer.com/downloads/36260f5671002a894e68faff1fcf77cd20230119125825/45b2ef?src=dnlThis is for Part1; yet to see a usable link for Part2...@dangillmor Many criticisms may be levelled at birdsite management but large companies which wish to continue operating internationally do have to follow local regulations (if the regulator's orders are legal & proper). It is however much harder for authoritarians to control the media when this is decentralised!

@wjmaggos @tchambers Would this be possible with simple HTML sites? WordPress seems very dominant already? #BackToBasics #WebDesign #IndieWeb

#introduction I'll post about the life, times & legacy of Elizabeth de Burgh, #LadyOfClare, a spirited English noblewoman of the #14thCentury whose legacy includes #ClareCollege & #ClareHall at #CambridgeUniversity. She & her remarkable network of friends were influential patrons of books, music, institutions & all the arts in a #GoldenAge for English craftsmanship.📷 a detail of the #PienzaCope#MedievalArt #OpusAnglicanum #MedievalManuscripts #medievodons @medievodons
