medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Thanks, everyone, for these very helpful suggestions. Poking around the web, I just found this site (we may have mentioned it here in long ago threads) from the Radboud University in Nijmegen: http://www.kunera.nl/ It's an illustrated database of hundreds of pilgrim badges searchable by theme (sacred/profane, Christ, Mary, saints, etc.), country, and date. It was very easy to kill a lot of time there.
