Part of a pilgrim badge from the shrine of St Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. This badge depicts part of the scene of Thomas Becket returning from exile in France and refers to his journey from Sandwich to Canterbury on horseback. All that remains of this badge is Becket’s dappled horse and the lower part of Becket’s body. Becket’s cloak hangs in folds across the saddle and his right leg is stretched out straight ahead. He wears pointed shoes. 

Thomas Becket was born in London in 1118. He became a royal official and a great friend of King Henry II. He was made Archbishop of Canterbury in 1162. He argued with King Henry II, and fled to France in 1164. Thomas Becket returned to Canterbury in 1170 and was killed in the cathedral by four knights who thought this would please the king. People were outraged at the murder of an archbishop on holy ground and Becket was made a saint. He became one of the patron saints of London. Many Londoners travelled to Canterbury to pray at the shrine there and bought badges and ampullae (small bottles for holy water) as souvenirs of their pilgrimage.

O Museu de Londres conta a história da cidade dos tempos pré-históricos aos modernos. Suas coleções tem uma grande variedade de artefatos: de arqueologia a vestuário, passando por estátuas de mármore e pinturas. Além disso, o museu contém uma grande coleção de história urbana. Como sempre, gravitei para a área de história medieval que achei bem interessante com artefatos que remontavam aos Plantagenetas (a primeira grande dinastia) e aos Tudors. 

O Museu de Londres também tem um canal muito interessante no You Tube com atualizações frequentes que permitem uma visita não só ao que o museu expõe, mas ao que acontecem por trás da exposição, como a conservação de artefatos. Possuí também vídeos com animações que falam sobre personagens que tem a história contada no museu. O link do canal está aqui.

Money pots continue to intrigue archaeologists, and questions remain over their function and production in Shakespeare’s London. A new research project, ‘Making and Breaking of Playhouse Pots’ by Heather Knight of the Museum of London Archaeology, aims to delve deeper into these pots.

Sunday. Closure imminent. I went to see the Museum of London complex again before it shuts for good. Really very sad about what might happen to this site. If it goes, it’ll be a terrible loss for London’s built environment.
