Blakeney Point - aerial. This vast shingle spit protected the historic Glaven Ports of Blakeney, Cley & Wiveton, once thriving medieval trading harbours. Centuries of longshore drift, tidal action & silting slowly reshaped the estuary, ending a maritime era that peaked in the 1500s. #NorthNorfolk

The 1500s were a period of significant land privatization, primarily driven by the Enclosure Movement in Europe and the beginning of the colonial movement globally. This era marked a major shift from communal, traditional land tenure systems toward the modern concept of exclusive private property.

renaissance compositional pedagogy in the late 1500s had a "documented fall" when the florentines outright rejected to follow the strict rules of renaissance era polyphony therefore paved the way for baroque music to completely overshadow and take over for the next 200 years or whatever

Fun new addition to the Tiffany Problem: 'dildo' in its modern usage dates back to the 1500s! Here I am trying to come up with other ways to describe it and no, Regency-era kinksters were just callin' em dildos too.

Buchetta del vino. When you visit Florence, be sure to be on the look out for the wine windows. There are about 150 within the city and date back to the 1500s and the Medici era. #kfrontdesigns #florence #winewindow #buchettadelvino #wine #italy🇮🇹 #italia #firenze #firenze🇮🇹 #photography #tourism

cookies were invented by John cookie in 1765, Philadelphia. Prior to this there was a precursor dessert called a disk of death, occasionally eaten with tea in Song era China. Evidence also exists of a cookie like food made of pig intestine, honey, and garbage in 1500s England
