#OTD 1606 the trial of Guy Fawkes & 7 others, for attempting to blow up the Parliament House, began in Westminster Hall. The Attorney General, Sir Edward Coke, prosecuted the case, and spectators paid up to 10s for admittance. There was never any doubt as to the verdict – all eight were condemned and executed by being hanged, drawn and quartered. The background to the plot is explained in the masterly ‘God’s Traitors’ by Jessie Childs – reviewed here. http://bit.ly/1BjGCTu #stuarts #histodons

#OTD 1591 b. Robert to Robert, Earl of Essex and his wife, Frances Walsingham. Young Robert's marital career was disastrous. His 1st m. to Frances Howard was annulled for lack of consummation. She was later convicted for the murder of Sir Thomas Overbury, http://bit.ly/2gq0MHf . He had an similarly unsuccessful second marriage, and died without heirs. Like all his family, he was an evangelical Protestant, joined the Parliamentarians in the Civil War & commaded at Edgehill. #histodons #stuarts

Twelve Days of Mortality History Christmas - Day Six🎄💀: This enamelled gold mourning slide features four skulls (a choir of sorts), accompanied by crossed bones, a winged hourglass and leaves. The slide could be worn on a ribbon which was threaded through the loops visible on either side of the slide. Mid 17th cent.

#OTD 1521, the Scottish government led by John, Duke of Albany (pic) during the minority of James V, agreed a treaty that was both offensive and defensive, with France. It was expressed largely as a treaty to protect both countries from invasion by England. King James was to be married to one of the daughters of King Francois, when they reached a suitable age. http://bit.ly/1SiDvSC #stewarts #stuarts #jamesv #francoisI #scotland #scottishhistory

Twelve Days of Mortality History Christmas - Day Two🎄💀: A skeleton with dart and hourglass on the copper halfpenny token of John Morse of Watford. - the presence of death is a pun as 'mors' sounds quite similar to 'morse’ 1666 (@britishmuseum) #MementoMori #coins #stuarts #17thcentury #history #histodons

As you can tell from my #introduction - Im a death historian who enjoys shiny objects. Such as this gold mourning ring where a toothy skull peeks out from the hoop at us. The ring is inscribed for J.A. who died 25 July 1698 aged 37. Found in Carmarthenshire (Portable Antiquities) #MementoMori #skull #rings #17thcentury #stuarts #histodons #history

#ICYMI earlier this year Dr David Scott and Dr Sarah Mortimer began our new blog series, Revolutionary Stuart Parliaments, looking into the politics behind the abolition of the House of Lords in 1649. Read the inaugural blog here: http://ow.ly/XRTs50KQwrz

A grinning skeleton wraps around the hoop of this enamelled gold mourning ring. The skeleton is accompanied by an hourglass and crossed bones - reminders of the inevitability of death and transience of time. An inscription inside indicates that the ring was given by John Pinder. 17th cent (Museum of London) #MementoMori #histodons #history #jewellery #17thcentury #stuarts #London #introduction #ring

A bold skull looks out from this enamelled gold mourning ring commemorating Samuel Nicholets who died 17 July 1661. The hoop is hollow and contains hair which can be seen through the openwork (you can see a bit next to the skull in the first image). The hoop is also decorated with crossed bones and two coats of arms. The inside of is inscribed with the message 'Christ is my portion'.

While violence and duelling among the early modern aristocracy were not uncommon, one family seemed particularly disposed... Dr Patrick Little reflects on the Mohuns, a family who had a weakness for mindless violence👇 http://ow.ly/HXl250LAQjz

In the second Revolutionary Stuart Parliaments blog, Dr Patrick Little reflects on a family with a weakness for mindless violence. While violence among the early modern aristocracy was not uncommon, the Mohuns' violence shocked their contemporaries👇 http://ow.ly/HXl250LAQjz

I’m going to try and avoid politics, because this seems a nice place and I can get very angry,and sad, about the state we are in. Here I’m planning to (try) to be civilised!

‘Prepared bee to follow me’ - the message on this striking heart-shaped silver medal commemorating the death of Charles I. A skull appears between a ‘C’ and ‘R’ (Carolus Rex).(from British Museum) Give me a follow for plenty more curious death-related items from history #mementomori #stuarts #history #kingcharles
