The rabbit funeral procession from the Gorleston Psalter. The rabbits have a processional cross and a series of wax tapers to light the way. The rabbit priest sprinkles holy water on the coffin. Two dogs carry the bier. 14th cent. Add 49622 @britishlibrary.bsky.social #skystorians #medieval

A funeral procession performed by rabbits. The rabbits carry bells, a cross and wax tapers before the coffin which is carried by two dogs. A lone rabbit sits on the coffin blowing a trumpet. The rabbit priest stands before the coffin in full vestments and sprinkles the coffin with holy water.

A round, light brown tablet made of clay with three lines of cuneiform scripts. Two rulings, or traced straight lines, enclose the writing. The photo also shows the sides of the tablet, including a few damaged parts.
