- Got Medieval finds a new use of the word "medieval" in the global warming debate.
- Heavenfield's Person of the Week is Aethelwald of Lindisfarne.
- Per Omnia Saecula's Weird Medieval Tribe is the Hippopodes. Oh, Manolo, can't you help these poor people?
- In the Middle has a post about controversy over repatriating the Lewis Chessmen. I suppose it's hard for us Americans to understand the importance of these kinds of issues to people who live in tiny countries like those in Europe.*
