In medieval times, people thought carrying onions would protect them from the plague. They would hang them in doorways and carry them in their pockets! 🧅 #MedievalFacts

FACTS YOU DIDN’T KNOW “ Before alarm clocks existed, people used nails fixed onto candles to make sure they would wake up on time. As the candle melted, the nail fell, made a noise and woke up its owner “ 🕯️ #MedievalFacts #CandleAlarm

#King Charles VI of #France (1368-1422) suffered from a particular disorder called “The Glass Delusion.” He believed himself to be made of #glass and could shatter at any moment. He refused bathing for extended periods so as not to fracture. #MiddleAges #medievalfacts

People in the middle ages did not have a lot of cavities as some might think. Since sugar had to be imported, it was too expensive to be in most foods. People tended to eat dairy, vegetables, and grains which were all good for their teeth! #MedievalFacts #DentalHealth

Medieval ice skates were often made of animal bones. In the 12th century, William FitzStephen described Londoners 'fitting to their feet the shinbones of cattle' to skate on frozen water #historyfacts #iceskating #medieval #medievalfacts

Because the forehead was seen as the central point of medieval women's faces, they would remove their eyelashes and eyebrows in order to accentuate it. Some were so committed, they would pluck their hairlines to achieve a perfectly oval, bald face. #medievalfashion #medievalfacts
