Medieval History and Reptiles

[twasadark]

Do I have any Medievalists on my flist?  I need to ask some very dumb questions regarding basic Medieval literature for a book project I'm working on. 

Also, my turtle appeared again today!  I haven't seen her for a good 3 months and I was beginning to fear that she had managed to crawl out of her fenced in pond area and was killed by one of my dogs, so I'm happy that this is not the case!

Wow! Way cool! I'm a historian who's working on a book about medieval graveyards, of all things, lol. I find the subject fascinating, though. I'm on Anglo Saxon graveyards of the 5th through 8th centuries now. :-)

Are you located in Europe somewhere? You must be if your field is Medieval Archaeology ... how interesting!

Well, you never know what life will reserve you, lol.

But graveyards are a fascinating suject, indeed. I've never took part in necropolis researchs, but when I first visited the catacombs in Rome it was somehow exciting be there after having studied them in my book for so long, lol.

Yep, I'm italian. I'm studing late medieval pottery right now, for my final dissertation which will be probably discussed this summer.
