Has anybody here heard of Battle of nations? plus like medieval history /dark ages history?

I gathered it was something along the lines of using a cuttlefish as a mould but what materials would they have used to cast a mould back then? Sorry casts are not my crafting forte!

I will have a listen. 

Cutting open and engraving on the in side of a cuttlefish bone putting it back together and using it for a mould. 

History isn't my strongest subject, but have you heard the 'You're Dead to Me'  podcast on BBC Sounds? It's brilliant - it's basically Horrible Histories for adults. My partner loves it too and he has a history degree, so I think it's interesting whether you're a novice or an expert :)

Cuttlefish casting? I’ve never heard of that before! What would that involve?

Depending on what part of the world, like Greece for example perhaps cuttlefish casting its easy and great for beginners to. 

I wonder what techniques they used to make jewellery in medieval times

Yeah that's sigh worthy. 

I love history I can spend ours wondering what things were really like then and also the great crafts that had been so prevalent. 

I do like medieval history, although I don’t get anywhere near as much time as I’d like to read about it, curtesy of my children *sighs*
