Thumbs up Member Article Published in Centar Ardo

This may not be the right forum for this, but I trust the mods to move it if need be.

Those of you who know me on Livejournal might have been made aware that I was asked a little while back to write a a concise, accessible summary of the findings so far of the Warwickshire Hoard for Centar Ardo, the journal of the Arda Historical Society. I received permission from the journal to republish the essay online, so I thought it'd be worth sharing with you. It's been posted here, if you'd like to take a look.

I should add that if you're not a member of the Arda Historical Society, you should join it. It includes both amateurs and professionals--archaeologists, philologists, antiquarians--anyone and everyone who's interested in looking into the actual history of Arda, whether through the literary sources that have survived to us or the actual material leavings. If you can write up a decent grant proposal, there's the potential for good money in it, too--the Tolkien Estate will often provide funding to continue the work of J.R.R. Tolkien, the famous editor and translator of the Red Book texts, including more scientific analyses such as the ones referred to in the article.

I'd love to start up some discussion around this publication in particular, and the Warwickshire Hoard in general. Thanks!
