Alright enough is enough you fucking idiots on this site need to stop dismissing historic reconstructions. The artists that make these are enthusiastic and passionate about history they want to recreate it in an as accurate way as possible they aren't just making shit up only paranoid schizoid brainlets think this. Not to mention that reconstructions are made a lot of the time with the help of archaeologists. They are displayed in museums, on museum or academic websites.

This needs to stop "arguments" from incredulity are not arguments if you don't understand how an artist recreated a historic city or how an archaeologist knows what a historic or prehistoric building looks like either provide sources that refute the model/historic building or shut the fuck up and let the adults discuss things.

Picrel is medieval Paris.

How does this artist know what paris looked like? easy we'll start here.

>>18163313
Anyone who dismisses historic reconstructions is not to be taken seriously. The brainless incredulous fucks are basically flat earthers that think if can't see something directly with your own eyes it's not real.
>>
If it's not dug up it's made up. Sorry but not sorry. If you disagree you prefer fantasy over reality. Unfortunately this is quite common today, so westoids invite thirld worlders into their homes to breed their wives and daughters, this is all because of living through fantasies. If you try to shake them out of it they get extremely hostile.

I'm not meso anon but I always see idiots dismiss reconstructions of Tenochtitlan as well even though there is mountains of evidence showing what it looked like.
People dismissing Norse buildings that were built by archaeologists as "muh reconstructions so not real hur" like that's some kind of a win or argument.
Picrel you can see a horse gable that the Norse would use as a decorative element on their houses.

is this accurate? where do you draw the line between stylized and photographically perfect? the painter might not have even seen the city, but painted from what others told him. or he saw it years ago and painted from memory. there are so many possibilities.

So Tacitus's Germania is as historical as lord of the rings?
There's a thing called corroborating evidence for instance he mentions a tribe that lives to the far north called the Fenni and describes them as hunter-gatherers living in tents and wearing skins the corroborating evidence is Finns(etymology) and the Sammi, see that's how this works.
>>
>>18164140
Just because the names match, and often they match when you want them to match, doesn't mean he described them accurately. No way to check, is there?

no, you can't judge how much it is stylized because you don't have the actual photograph. It is just well painted, but that doesn't mean it's accurate. How can you be so blind? An artist skill doesn't mean it's 100% correct. You can paint a dragon accurately.

There is you idiot through archaeology and their modern descendants picrel still living in tents corroborative evidence.

Why do you believe this photo is even real? maybe it's staged using actors to make you think the Saami existed it's a part of the Saami conspiracy. Why do you believe in anything? I guarantee you pick and choose what to believe like a small child you don't care about the truth.

There are definitely plenty of staged photos, like the famous one with Inuit who shot a polar bear with a gun and then shot two arrows in his heart to pretend to be a great archer

many times those pictures were copies, you can see this in many bibles. copies sure do help corroborate

I didn't that's where your dumb as fuck "logic" leads to you only trusting physical evidence through excavation even when a painting is fucking physical.
