In medieval times, witchcraft was one of the most serious crimes. For example, lets say some woman was accused of being a witch. She would have to go through Trial By Ordeal, to prove if she was or was not a witch. If she was proved to not be a witch then she would be released but if she was a witch, then she would be hanged or burnt at the cross. In some cases, the body would be cut up and each piece buried in different parts of the country.
Trial By Ordeal.
Trial by Ordeal included the two most popular ways of torture; Trial by Water and Trial By Fire. Trial By Water was when a rope was tied around the accused victim and then the victim was thrown into a lake or stream. If the person sunk then he/she was innocent. But if they floated then they were a witch. Trial By Fire was when the accused's hand was pushed into fire or hot oil then locked in a dungeon for three days. If the blisters were infected then they were a witch.
