Elizabethan city life hygiene and crime?
The hygiene in the Elizabethan period was very bad. Bathing was not quite as simple during the Elizabethen times as it is now.

For the upper class, they had a little bit easier and were able to bathe roughly once every couple of weeks. The most common crimes were: High treason Blasphemy Sedition Spying Rebellion Muder Witchcraft Alchemy And the puishments were: Hanging Burning The Pillory and the Stocks Whipping Branding Pressing Ducking stools The Wheel Boiling in oil water or lead (usually reserved for poisoners ) Starvation in a public place Cutting off various items of the anatomy - hands, ears etc The Gossip's Bridle or the Brank The Drunkards Cloak I hope this helps
