Hi there, I’m very curious about the historical side of witch trials, and I’m wondering if basically there were any specific activities or actions which would get you tried for it in Early Medieval England (around 1000 or so). I’m also curious about the process of being tried for witchcraft, if anyone is able to shed a little light on it. Thanks so much!
Have a birthmark, a mole gossip, basically it could be anybody with whom somebody had a grudge with. Remember there were no hospitals, doctors modern medicine. They used what nature provided, the old and wise women of the village were equivalent to a modern herbalist.
