'Dark Ages'.

Btw. 2018-21, I posted a series of cartoons on Twitter, based on my research in (early) Medieval History. I've drawn very little since then, but I hope to repost some of the older ones here & perhaps to add some new ones as well... feel free to use them for your research, teaching etc.

This exciting monograph shapes a new #interdisciplinary method for the analysis of the #EarlyMiddleAges, where the #environment played an equal part as political movements.
