(This is totally reinforcing my dream of visiting Cornwall someday!) But more srsly- so Justinian. Makes me wonder about the Corpus Juris Civilis...

Oh, Cornwall is well worth a visit...! Have you seen Chysauster? A still-standing Roman-era village? :) https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/926766767128453128 … And Justinian is a fascinating character, & poss also commemorated in a British church dedication...
Dr Caitlin Green added,
I travel so much for work, but never get to travel for myself. Thanks for the beautiful photos- I can live vicariously through them!
If it'd help, I can look around for any ancient coconuts in the museums when I'm next there, so that it could become a research trip... ;) :)
I'm sure you'll find Early Modern coconuts in those museums! The organic suspension tests that I understand would be necessary to find ancient shell remains aren't usually performed, apparently : (
yeah if you DO ever run across late antique English coconut evidence hmu asap as I would LOVE to get a really solid support for that- rn I can say it was likely but we have no, um, smoking coconut...
Hmm... Will keep an eye out! Are found in 5th-/6th-century contexts at Byzantine port of Berenike, if that helps...
oh yeah- well-documented in the southern and eastern Mediterranean straight through- just not in England (yet?)
