Convicts that were transported to Australia back in the day had to wear clothes stencilled with the broad arrow. It is a significant part of our history.

[@Sifinds]

indeed

[@marionrosannaanna4590]

Yes, Robyn, i came to the comments to add that about the arrow and convicts. Imagine the extra stench when they were interring bodies overboard of the hulks. I wonder if there’s a link to what the archaeologists found?

[@bronwyndobbins282]

The warships are awesome. Kris is such a larrikin, just lives for the moment. What fun for all of you today. The little heart may have come off a jewellery box or trinket box. Rat Island sounds fascinating. I love history.

Thanks Si. You guys are made of strong stuff to withstand such conditions 👏 😄. Prison graves? That one skull showed signs of autopsy. The skull cap was neatly sawed off the skull. Doubt if the prisoner was used for learning purposes it would have been interred so neatly. Always thought those used for medical dissection were just chucked in a pit when finished with. 🤔.

Hello Si. The rifle is a Snider Enfield. It was used from the 1860's until the Martini Henry started to be introduced in the 1870's. The Snider was a conversion of the muzzle loading Enfield rifle. Great video mate.

Re balls on Burrow (Rat) Island. I have an ancestor who was an Engineer with the Royal Engineers Submarine Mining based in Gosport in the early 1900’s. They made and tested underwater mines. There are some good photos and info online. They certainly look like mines. Pre WW1.

The belt clip/ key thing and buckle with the hole at the end are both from a WW2 gas mask bag strap. The loop on the buckle is to attach it to a brass hook on the bag I wonder if they're from the same bag.
