"Oh, I was once told that they didn't fry things in the middle ages so
what I had done was not period. As a potter I know the archeaologists
have found ceramic items that look suspiciously like fry pans and that
the archeaologists call fry pans."

I have a picture of a 3500-yr-old copper frying pan (found in a book on
copper).
