This is a cool idea. I wonder how useful the website is? I have already been given 3 error notifications while looking at the list of 12th century manuscripts.

I'm going to be taking a deep dive into this these next few weeks, but in the meantime lol at the miscategorized Enfield 1907 Mk 111 bayonet. Most definitely not medieval, barring the unlikely scenario of some hapless time traveler: https://proxy.europeana.eu/2022362/_Royal_Museums_Greenwich__http___collections_rmg_co_uk_collections_objects_533163?view=http%3A%2F%2Fcollections.rmg.co.uk%2FmediaLib%2F491%2Fmedia-491937%2Flarge.jpg&disposition=inline&api_url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.europeana.eu%2Fapi

Unfortunately the quality seems to be pretty low. I just randomly clicked on the 11th century: https://www.europeana.eu/en/collections/time/11-11th-century?page=2
Some of the "items" are just pictures of digsites or info-letters, there is no grouping of them, and worst: they seem to be all in the local language.

Could be some kind of a 12 Monkeys scenario

Yeah, this doesn't appear to be vetted with quality and content a mixed bag.

Yeah I've been wondering the same and curious if there are auction houses that focus on medieval items

You jest but it would be pretty cool to own a piece of medieval history.

Ikr? Would be pretty awesome. My friend's dad has a legitimate suit of armor and a few coat of arms with actual swords and shields and they are pretty badass.

Ask him where he got them from! That's exactly what I want.

The way I see it is that they had to start somewhere, and I’m glad they didn’t wait until everything was 100% perfect so we can access things in the mean time. Not every small collection has the budget of the British museum or the MET to take super high res pics of their entire collection. It’s not perfect but it’s more access than we’ve had before.

For some reason once I saw "available online" I also thought it meant available for purchase lol

Many have been coming up for auction recently at Christie's, the same auction house trying to sell that knowingly fake T-Rex 🦖
