One of my dolls lives in a museum. You can meet and greet her in The Museum of Magic, Fortune-telling & Witchcraft in Edinburgh, Scotland. It's Frau Perchta from Germanic mythology. She is waiting for you in Folk Witch display.

If you run a museum or any other public space that you think could benefit from such doll, let me know. I'm open for discussions and creating the doll that you need. I just love museums and the idea of my witch dolls greeting people in public spaces. If my doll lands in your museum I will brag about it forever.

Frau Perchta - a proud and terrifying mythical witch doll with horns and long, beak-like nose proudly standing on a display in The Museum of Magic, Fortune-telling & Witchcraft in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Publishers now also do SEO. This is the abstract with just content and not mentioning "this paper":

Germanic languages are an interesting field of study since a rather small group of languages shows an interesting typological variation. For example, basic constituent order (SVO = Danish, English, Faroese, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish; SOV = Afrikaans, Dutch, Frisian, German and dialects or languages like Swiss German and Luxembourgish), the property of being a V2 language or not (all Germanic languages vs. English), elaborated case-systems and inflection (Icelandic) vs. almost no inflection in Danish. There is a consensus about certain topics in Germanic syntax in the generative tradition in a broader sense (including LFG, GPSG, and HPSG). For example, the analysis of the verb position and V2 in Germanic is rather uncontroversial: it is assumed that the finite verb is placed in initial position and that one constituent is placed before this verb. A valence-based surface-oriented approach is appropriate for accounting for phenomena like scrambling, verbal complex formation, and passive and case assignment. Such an approach does not only work for languages that are usually studied, like English, German, and Dutch, but the solutions work for all Germanic languages.

And this is "this paper":

In 2017, detectorists found metal objects in Kariv, western #Ukraine, which led to excavations. #Germanic burials were found with prestigious grave goods. 20 of these amazing finds will be on display at our Great State Exhibition "THE HIDDEN LAND - Our First Millennium", from 13 September 2024 - 26 January 2025 in Stuttgart. A collaboration with the Regional Historical Museum in Vynnyky Museum, Oblast Lviv, made it possible for the objects to arrive in Germany in May, where they are now ...1/2
