Bad air - they didn't see the relation with hygiene as we do today.
Bad air being the cause of "The Black Death" can also be seen in the old depictions of the "medics" of the day. They wore long-nosed masks when being around plague patients. In the long nose of the mask herbs and oils were put, in order to "neutralise" the plague causing bad air.
