The LGBTQ+ community is made up of a range of different sexualities and gender expressions. Although many of the terms we use to categorise this diversity did not exist in the past, that diversity certainly has existed throughout history. From bisexual monarchs to gender non-conforming priests, history tells us that LGBTQ+ people have always existed. This book uses objects recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme to share stories of LGBTQ+ history and culture, focusing on historical figures, the natural world, language and symbolism, and communities. From a coin of the Roman Emperor Hadrian to a toy bear, this book also highlights the rich depth of history and range of objects that can be seen on the PAS database.
