We all need a timeline cleanse, so here is the most adorable #chess piece ever!
A knight, made of antler. Dating 11/12th century.
Found at the Burgstein, Lichtenstein-Holzelfingen.

@ninawillburger@social.anoxinon.de Wow! Where is it on display now? And is there the rest of the set, too? Are there possibly 3d-scans available for printing? For it is very adorable indeed!

Before I finished reading your post I thought it was a penguin. And now I want a chess set with penguin pawns 🤗
