Honestly, @caitlinrgreen has one of the most fascinating blogs around. This examination of camels in medieval Britain is wonderful.https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/1040878562688028673 …

I always love your posts on medieval long-distance trade and travel. And now I want to read up about da Bologna, what a life he must have had!
Oh, thank you! He's so fascinating! Most things seem to assume he's a fraud, but not at all convinced of this, not least because after the controversy over his consecration as Patriarch he wasn't dismissed, but rather continued to be used as papal ambassador by subsequent popes >
> and using his title through the 1460s and into the late 1470s, with his title again being given papal approval in the 1470s :)
A self-consecrating Patriarch does sound like a useful person to keep on-side (and preferably at a considerable distance, impressing potential allies by means of camels)
