Despite what it can sometimes feel like in a dull classroom, history is a lot more than just “random” dates and dead people. It shaped and continues to shape the world around us. Through the things our ancestors left behind, it can be a lot easier to see just how similar they were to us.
The “Museum of Artifacts” page shares interesting and cool items from history. We got in touch with the page’s creation and administrator to learn more. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to comment your thoughts below.

#1 A Fabric Womb Made By Angélique Du Coudray, A French Midwife Who Was Commissioned By King Louis Xv To Reduce Infant Mortality

From 1760 to 1783, she traveled all over France, visiting poor rural women and sharing her extensive knowledge with them. It is estimated that she trained some 10,000 women.
Du Coudray also invented the first lifesize obstetrical mannequin, for practicing mock births, and published a well-received midwifery textbook

Bored Panda got in touch with the admin and creator of “Museum of Artifacts” and they were kind enough to answer some of our questions. Naturally, we wanted to hear the history behind the page itself.

“So a museum of artifacts was created 9 years ago, first on Facebook and Tumblr. As a history freak I found there is no place where you can find artifacts. So I started to post and then, quickly the community grew so much. There are hundreds of thousands of people who love history but not only in the books.”

#6 Detail From The “Unswept Floor” Mosaic Made By Heraclitus, Showing A Mouse Eating A Walnut. 2nd Century Ce, Now On Display At The Vatican Museums

The page has gotten quite large and now also includes a separate blog, the aforementioned Facebook page and an Instagram account. So we wanted to hear the admins’ thoughts on what actually made it so wildly popular. “When you see a small amber bear that was made 5k years ago, when you see carbonized bread from Pompeii or a dinosaur skeleton that was folded in a super funny way you can imagine that those people were just like us.”

#7 Roman Army Knife (201-300 Ad); Has A Spoon, Knife, Fork, Spike, Spatula And Pick Allowing The User To Even Clean Between Their Teeth After Eating. It Was Part Of The Equipment Of Roman Legions

This folding eating gadget has a three-pronged fork, a spoon,a spatula,a pick, a spike and an iron knife that has eroded away. There is a hinge to allow each item to be folded out when it was needed, or folded away for ease of transporting it.
The spike might of helped in extracting the meat from snails, and the spatula in scraping sauce out of narrow-necked bottles. Some have even suggested the pick with the tiny spoon on the end could have been used to remove earwax.

“They love to see and share objects, sometimes truly amazing, that were part of someone’s lives thousands of years ago,” they shared. We wanted to know how finding things to post worked from the admin side. “Museum of Artifacts is run by one person alone, non profit, never posted a single ad or referral.” Pages like this have the added benefit of making parts of history more accessible to the general public.

#10 Roman Brick From Cherchell, Algeria With A Perfect 2000 Year-Old Imprint Of A Human Hand

The handprint is seemingly that of a large Roman man, who pressed his hand into the brick as it lay out to dry before firing. Closer inspection reveals the fingerprints and skin textures of the man.

#11 A 2,000-Year-Old Green Serpentine Stone Mask Was Found At The Base Of The Pyramid Of The Sun In Teotihuacan, Mexico

It’s believed that these offerings were left as part of a ritual to inaugurate the construction of the pyramid, hence its location at the lower level. The mask itself is extremely lifelike, which gave rise to the theory that it’s actually a portrait. This would be incredible, as archaeologists have little information about the people who constructed Teotihuacan. There are also conflicting theories about the exact use of the pyramid. Even the name isn’t original.

#12 A Roman Bronze Colander From Pompeii, Italy, 1st Century Bce

Given the sheer amount of content the page shares, we also wondered if they had any favorites. “Toys or doodles made by kids a long time ago amazes us. And there are still more questions like Gobekli Tepe, in which we still don’t know much about our past, which was complex and advanced.”

The City Was The Capital Of The Kingdom Of Zimbabwe, Which Was A Shona (Bantu) Trading Empire. Zimbabwe Means “Stone Houses” In Shona

#18 Ancient Near Eastern Clay Vessel With Two Feet (1000–800 Bc), From Northern Iran

A tall vessel with an oval, almost bag-like body, a somewhat elongated neck with an everted rim and a pair of narrow curving handles that spring from the oblique shoulder to the neck. The lower portion of the vessel splits into two legs with well-modeled feet. Details such as ankle bones and the arch of each foot are rendered by modeled forms rather than incised lines. The overall effect is that of a wine- or waterskin rather than a ceramic vessel. It is likely that this association was intentional- as the light porous ceramic body of the vessel allows water to evaporate slowly through the sides, thus slightly cooling the remaining contents.

#19 Château De Chenonceau, Indre-Et-Loire, France

Arguably one of the most impressive inhabited bridges still in existence, the present-day structure, dating back to the 16th century, was constructed upon an arched bridge spanning the Cher River. This unique design allowed the owner to access the hunting grounds located on the opposite side of the river.

#25 A Horreo Is A Traditional Granary Or Storage Building Commonly Found In The Northwest Region Of Spain, Particularly In Galicia, Asturias, And Cantabria

These structures are typically raised off the ground on pillars or stilts to protect the stored grain or food from moisture and pests. Horreos are characterized by their unique architectural design, featuring a rectangular or elongated shape with slatted walls or vents to allow for air circulation.
The construction of horreos dates back centuries, with some examples dating as far back as the Middle Ages. They were originally used to store and preserve crops such as corn, wheat, and other grains, as well as other food items like potatoes and beans. The elevated design of horreos helps to keep the stored goods dry and safe from rodents and insects.
Horreos are not only functional structures but also hold cultural significance in the regions where they are prevalent. They are often decorated with intricate carvings, symbols, or patterns, reflecting local craftsmanship and traditions. In addition to their practical use for food storage, horreos have become iconic symbols of rural life in Spain, attracting tourists and visitors who appreciate their historical and architectural value.

At the time, Dur-Sharrukin was the capitol of what is now known as the Neo-Assyrian Empire. The city was abandoned after Sargon II died in battle in 705 BC, against the province of Tabal in Anatolia (Türkiye), and the capitol was then moved to Nineveh.

“In 1980 archaeologists investigated the graves of 185 Dutchmen – whale hunters, and workers at whale oil refineries – who had died on or near Spitsbergen in the 17th century. Many skeletons were still wearing their knitted woollen head coverings. These caps were highly personal. The men were bundled up against the severe cold and could only be recognized by the colours and patterns of their caps. Presumably this is the reason why the caps went with them into their graves.”
