This is a list of various research resources within the boundaries of Caid.
Museums
The museums listed here have collections or exhibits that include items of interest to those studying pre-1600-era culture of the Old World. These museums also often have items of newer provenance or objects from the New World, Asia, or Africa, but those are not mentioned here as they are less likely to aid in research appropriate to the SCA's time and location.
