After King Clothar I died OTD in 561 at Compiègne, the #Merovingian dynasty was continued by his four sons, Charibert I, Guntram, Sigebert I and Chilperic I, dividing the Frankish Kingdom https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/france/pierre-tourneresse/?s=mb #travel #France #history

Revealing #palimpest with #multispectral #imaging! These amazing results, showing a #Merovingian overtext and a 5th-century Gospel undertext, were achieved by my colleague Alex Zawacki at Göttingen. I'll be presenting the full results of this and other cool discoveries in May at a German-language conference in Kiel.

This tablet-woven trim is a reconstruction of a sleeve trim that was attached to the burial robe of Abbess Berthild of Chelles, who died at 705 AD. Berthild was the first abbess of Chelles Abbey and a contemporary of the Frankish Merovingian queen Bathilde, who was buried in the same abbey in 680.
It is woven with fine plant-dyed wool attempting to imitate the colouring of the original border.

@TiciaVerveer
Why does Denmark refer to that time period as #Merovingian though? Did French culture extend that far north that soon after the Romans withdrew?

"Royal Funerals and Saints' Topography in Merovingian Paris" is an interesting lecture, but I'm laughing so much at the autogenerated subtitles I can't follow. Somehow San Fransisco is involved - ~1000yrs before it was founded - and we have such personalities as Dargo bad, Chilled Bear, and King Sugar Bears*. (YT link in toot below.)

(*Dagobert, Gilbert, and - I think - Hildebert. It's been a while since I looked at the Merovingian dynasty.)

Today seems a good day to again bring out this great find of an early medieval copper #crown, discovered 1838 in a #Frankish burial in #Xanten. 😲🤩

Which, well, was re-evaluated later thanks to other finds, like those #Merovingian … er, buckets. 🤭🤷🏻‍♂️

See, analogies matter. 😉

.@SYRPENT interesting occult significance

Retweeting this because they're cool. Gold and enamel and garnet bees (or cicadas) from the tomb of Childéric, Frankish king (r. 457-481). Napoleon took inspiration from this find & had them embroidered on his coronation cape

Today is the feast day of St Gregory of Tours who died #onthisday in 594.
His History of the Franks was the key source for my historical fiction novel Dawn of the Franks - the story of Basina of Thuringia
