Silk that's over a thousand years old! I first heard about these relics of St Julian in July (in a keynote lecture @imc-leeds.bsky.social) and was awestruck to come upon them at the National Museum of Ravenna last week. Byzantine work, 9th-10th century.

As the nights draw in, the memory of the sunny and warm Making Leeds Medieval at #IMC2025 is very vivid in our minds😊 (But maybe not so much for our lovely IMC Knights who withstood the heat like champions!)👍

What's your favourite IMC Memory?

As each month passes, #IMC2026 gets closer and closer.

We've been looking back at #IMC2025 memories and we started re-reading Daisy Black's 15:1 interview and we thought that you would like to as well: tinyurl.com/DaisyBlack15...

The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 might be a bit too 'modern' for the IMC, but if you are celebrating UK Bonfire Night tonight, have a safe and lovely time! 🔥🎆

On 5th November, did you know that the 15th-century dictionary The Catholicon was printed in Tréguier?📚
