I'm currently reading @SocialHistoryOx's brilliant 'The Blazing World' and it's making me go back and look at photos I've taken of survivals of those extraordinary times. This graffito is on a table tomb at Hickling, Norfolk.

My weirdest family heirloom is a #Sami #puukko found by my father in one of our fields 50years ago. Dropped by a seafarer maybe. No reindeer in #Dorset at the time! I’d love to know more about the scrimshaw symbolism pic.twitter.com/aJRlugYcuA
