@caitlinrgreen Did you know that in the 70s a warden committed burglaries on the tombs. Some items were irretrievably lost
@morangles Really? That's awful :(
@caitlinrgreen yup melt down the gold! what is shown at #cabinetdesmedailles is what was recovered & we have drawings of what was lost
@morangles I do recall reading something, a while back, but hadn't realised so bad! Wow....
@caitlinrgreen @medievalhistory Love the ring !
