@archthot: The most intimate thing you can do for someone is care for their bones. Using a toothbrush to clean a 2000 year old tooth is strangly intimate. Caring for someones tooth the way I care for mine. Using the same toothbrush to gently clean the dirt off their bones till they are perfectly clean. Caring for them in the most respectful way I can because I don’t want to loose the real people for all the bones #bonetok #historytok #history #archaeologytiktok #archaeologist #archaeology #LearnOnTikTok #academictiktok
Went to a bone chapel in the Czech Republic on Halloween 11 years ago. Incredible.

I have always wanted to visit the bone chapel, since I was young, not because it's macabre. Bc humans chose to build it. Bc I try to understand why. Bc yes, every skull was once a living person. 1/?

I'll never understand how people are scared of bones. We will all be bones someday, after all: it's nice to know that some people will still see us as the person we were

It's a unique form of a library where the books aren't able to tell their tales. Tales of beauty, Tales of tragedy of rich and poor now all together as equals at the end.

They all also laughed, cried, smiled, lived, grieved, and loved just like us, we are more like those of the past then we realize

It really makes you take a step back and realize that these people had full lives before you and makes you wonder how they got there to that point before you. The stories they could tell

This is what drew me to archeology, the acknowledgement that people of the past weren't just memories but people, whose lives were just as precious as ours. Every skull in that room 1

I just wish they could speak to us. To tell us what pulled at their heartstrings, what their souls searched for, what their ultimate goal in life was…anything.

It's a library of lives, the bone holding stories mundane and rich alike.

If buildings are books… an all who’ve existed in them a chapter… this chapel is a library-sized series. ♥️
