@caitlinrgreen What is the relation of Camels with Beowulf?
@Archatgs They're from an Anglo-Saxon text of the Marvels of the East bound with Beowulf :)
@caitlinrgreen But what is the relation between A-Saxons & elephants? They are not British animals.
@Archatgs Well, not in this era! Once, though...But seriously, they're trying to illustrate the Marvels in the text but aren't clear on how!
@caitlinrgreen ah, yes. The camel brontosaurus. Very popular with people with large families needing dependable transport :)
@EvansianI *images of the Flintstones flit across her mind* :)
@caitlinrgreen @Gurdur heh heh heh
