Is #PhallusThursday still a thing? This jaunty carving (see image description) ended up as builders' rubble packing the foundations in a third or early fourth century fort of Vindolanda at Hadrian’s Wall. It’s says Secundinus ‘the shitter’ Cacor.

Roughly oblong buff stone with a protruding carved phallus pointing towards the right where the lettering ‘SECUNDINUS CACOR’ has been pecked out of the stone in fairly regular letter cutting. Some of the stone is missing to the right where the letters are weathered away. It is on a white museum case bottom with a dark panel with an unclear out of focus image behind.

The first manned hot-air balloon ascent took place #OnThisDay in AD 1783. Balloons went on to help document archaeological sites from above. Before camera timers, an electric shock was used to electrocute the camera when it was at the right spot. (£) doi.org/10.1017/S000... 🏺 #Archaeology

Three archaeologists raising a tethered balloon with a camera attached into the air.

According to folklore, Hagbard's Gallows 🇸🇪 is the location where Hagbard, from the medieval legend of Hagbard and Signy, was hanged #FolkloreThursday It is in fact a Bronze Age monument; a unique combination of mounds, rock art and standing stones. 🆓 doi.org/10.15184/aqy... 🏺 #Archaeology

Standing stones, engraved with rock art, stood atop mounds. Excavations are visible in the background.
