Assassin’s Creed centres on the rivalries between the Templars and the Assassins. But they were not all fiction. It was very real. I had a great time separating fact from fiction with Matt Lewis on @assassinscreed @HistoryHit Echoes of History

🚨 THIS WEEK🚨
👣 Louis IX walked barefoot through medieval Paris.
Not as a king, but as a pilgrim.
Carrying the crown of thorns, he transformed it into a symbol of royal holiness.
@FaithTibble reveals how one king put the relic — and himself — on the map.

🖼️ There’s one image. A wreath. Soft, leafy, peaceful.
Then, 700 years of silence.
No thorns. No crown.
Just absence.
@FaithTibble explains how that silence shaped the violent iconography we know today.

Dr Faith Tibble will talk about how the imagery of the Crown of Thorns in Passion iconography – commonly symbolising torture, suffering and humiliation – is not at all what it seems.
