A seal is basically just a big underwater doggo though.
Imprint Project retweeted
Fascinating findings of @Imprint_Project on wax seal composition from @hollielsmorgan - 1/4 resin, 1/16 pigment/dye
Imprint Project retweeted
Practicalities of sealing show many impressions made while supported at the base of the palm as the sigillant supported the document - act is highly visible and performative @Imprint_Project
Imprint Project retweeted
@Imprint_Project findings suggest corporate sealer might be in place in Hereford Cathedral chancery. In Exeter, however, a larger chancery, sealers were more individual & often for validation the mayoralty seal was used. There is no uniform sealing process in cathedral chapters.
Imprint Project retweeted
Sealing is a practice that transcends social boundaries in the Middle Ages. Most people knew what it meant to seal a document @Imprint_Project
Imprint Project retweeted
There's still time to register for "Keeping in touch with Medieval Sigillants" in the Great Hall on 31st Oct, where we will be finding out what the @Imprint_Project (which uses forensics to investigate medieval seals) has revealed. Please join us! eventbrite.co.uk/e/professor-ph…
A tired @hollielsmorgan ‘s #sealoftheday (the one in the back).
Today @hollielsmorgan is in @ExeterCathedral archives, doing some more puzzling over Richard Bulluc.

Wow, one for @Imprint_Project !
Thanks for having us!
Imprint Project retweeted
Y7s have had a great morning in history creating their own medieval seals with @Imprint_Project and looking for their fingerprints #History #MedievalStudies
Today Philippa Hoskin from @ULHistory and Elizabeth New from @historyaber (our PI and Co-I) are at @UkNatArcRes
We had a great time making charters and thinking about identity with year sevens at @Caistor_GS today.
Thanks for coming and giving us some ideas!
