Unintentionally if at all. The black plague is caused by the bacteria Yersinia pestis. These lived in the bodies of Oriental rat fleas that lived on black rats. These black rats lived on merchant ships that traversed Europe's waters. This is how it spread once it arrived in Europe. How it got to Europe is not proven but it is believed that the fleas made their way from China to Europe by way of the silk road sometime in the early 14th century. This coincides with the western encroachment of the Mongol Empire into Eastern Europe. The Mongol Empire reached the Mediterranean around 1279 and naturally any livestock they brought with them would have been infested with fleas. However it could just as easily have reached Europe by way of the Indian ocean and through Arabia or Egypt along trade routes said fleas living on ship board rats that may very well have traveled by way of the Indian and Pacific Oceans all the way from southeast Asia.
