Presentation transcript:

“It is impossible for the human tongue to recount the awful truth…. The victims died almost immediately. They would swell beneath the armpits and in the groin and fall over while talking. Father abandoned child, wife husband, one brother another; for this illness seemed to strike through breath and sight…. In many places … great pits were dug and piled deep with the multitude of dead. And they died by the hundreds, both day and night”

Today we are learning about… THE BLACK DEATH

By the end of the lesson we should know… The ways people tried to cure and prevent the Black Death By the end of the lesson we should have discovered for ourselves… The Symptoms of the Black Death By the end of the lesson we might have worked out… What people thought caused the Black death

BUBONIC PNEUMONIC SEPTICEMIC

The word ‘Symptom’ means… a sign that you have a certain illness

The word investigation means… trying to work out details about something through carefully looking evidence

The word ‘natural’ (in this context) means… Something that can be explained through ‘common sense’ reasoning

The word ‘supernatural’ means… Something that cannot be explained, usually involving gods or spirits

Time’s up! Three Minute Countdown

Evidence box #1 Whip: Flagellants used it to whip themselves to say sorry to God for their sins Prayers: Swallowed Church bells: Rang to push away bad air Ply well the scourge for Jesus’ sake And God through Christ your sins shall take... Had it not been for our contrition All Christendom had met perdition.

Evidence box #2 Sweet smells (rosemary, lemon): To burn Sweet smells (herbs, pomanders): To carry with you Strong smells: To bathe in

Evidence box #3 Abracadabra! Magicians write it to ward off the evil eye! Amulets emeralds & charms: To stop curses Frogs & chickens: Put on buboes to drain poison Urine: Drank

Evidence box #4 Leeches: To suck out bad blood Clay & violets: Ointment applied to cuts Herbs: To help you purge bad humours

Evidence box #5 Tree resin, roots of lilies & human excrement Onions, butter, yeast & figs Smear onto buboes & then lance them!

Evidence box #6 Roasted shells, marigold, ale & treacle Chopped up snake & wine Potions for drinking

Evidence box #7 Bread, fruit & vegetables: Avoid food that goes bad easily & smells bad such as meat and fish Orange with cloves: Carry around with you (if you are rich!)

Can you remember what all of these are used for?!

By the end of the lesson we should know… The ways people tried to cure and prevent the Black Death By the end of the lesson we should have discovered for ourselves… The Symptoms of the Black Death By the end of the lesson we might have worked out… What people thought caused the Black death
