Branding is using a iron rod with a letter or shape on the bottom and sticking it inside a fire until it is burning hot and putting the hot part on a person or animal. People would be branded in medieval times as a punishment or if you were a gypsy or a runaway slave.

In Medieval Times, branding referred to the practice of marking animals, such as livestock, with a unique symbol or mark to indicate ownership. This was done to prevent theft and dispute over ownership. The branding process involved heating a metal iron and applying it to the animal's skin, leaving a permanent mark.
