  11. One of the biggest hurdles in researching #history is being objective when it comes to #indigenous practices.

    How does one reconcile the #cruelty of collecting kambo (frog toxin used for as a ritual drug) with the #traditional aspect of the practice?

    Do I say neutrally: "Indigenous people of X collect Y to help with luck in hunting." and thereby omit the fact that this is a potentially questionable practice?

    Or do I write: "Y is collected through inducing a forced stress response in Z, which is, by indigenous standards, necessary for facilitating practice A"

    (FYI, I purposely used a tame subject).

    Perhaps proper #historians have an answer to this?

  31. The Hickleton Skulls.

    In the Northwest lychgate of Hickleton church is an inset in the wall with the skulls of three alleged sheep rustlers.

    However, the truth is a little less romantic - they were placed there in 1880 by the 2nd Viscount Halifax and are a memento mori. The skulls were given by local medical students.

    There's currently a campaign running to inter the skulls and replace them with fake replicas as it is unlikely that the poor victims ever consented to this (in very much the same way as many medical skeletons have now been interred as the person's skeleton was being used without prior consent).
