Do the people in Reniassance festivals occurring in Britain also speak with faked British accents, or do they use faked French/Italian accents instead?

I'd imagine they fake an American accent. Maybe Burbank, CA?

That's fair. In the UK if you wanna see some old stuff you can just.. go see some old stuff.

Meanwhile my entire town(and actually the majority of the state lol) barring like three houses was burned quite literally to the ground during the civil war so nothing predates that.

You have effigy mounds, Pueblo villages and no end of fascinating ancient sites.

Anyway, this did inspire me to start !britishfolktraditions@feddit.uk

Pueblo villages are the other side of the country afaik. I'd like to see one, but I'm not driving two or three days straight for it.

I haven't heard of effigy mounds before, though, that's really cool.
