I've just published a new essay (8 min read) on my SUBSTACK loadesofhistory.substack.com/.../the-martia…... It was prompted by some thoughts I had about medieval warhorses when visiting the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art in Lisbon last week. Do take a look. #horses #History
Check out my new article about the Bayeux Tapestry on Substack. It has answers to questions you didn't know you wanted to ask. loadesofhistory.substack.com/p/sfx-in-the-r… #battleofhastings #militaryhistory #medievaltwitter #mikeloades #medievalart #bayeuxtapestry
Have you ever wondered why the Tudors placed such emphasis on maintaining the use of the longbow, despite it falling out of use as a battlefield weapon? I unpack some new ideas in today's article on Substack. open.substack.com/pub/loadesofhi… #longbow #historicalarchery #TudorHistory
I've started a SUBSTACK. First article incorporates my passion for the natural world with my fascination for medieval history. It is FREE to subscribe . Do please take a look. open.substack.com/pub/loadesofhi… #wolves #medievalhistory
Part 2 of my series on dogs is now streaming on History Hit. It tracks canine and human history between 1760 and 1850. Access History Hit on TV, laptop or phone via their App and FREE TRIAL subscription historyhit.com/subscription/ #historical #dogsofX
The first of two films I made last year about dogs in history is now streaming on @HistoryHit DOGS OF THE TUDORS explores the canine world of the Tudor and Elizabethan worlds - it is full of surprises (and adorable dogs). #dogsofX #History #dogsofinstagram #Tudors
I have been gently provocative today in a piece on the range of medieval longbows, on my official fb page. Evidence from a 16th C book supports my view that ‘arcing arrowstorms’ were of limited value and most archery warfare was at relatively close range. facebook.com/mikeloades/
I am now also to be found on: bsky.app/profile/loades… Do please follow me there. Gladiator news this morning.
