There are many ways,

1. Ordeal by combat: The accused has to fight to prove his innocent

2. Ordeal by fire: Taking a red hot iron in your hand, and bandage the wound. 3 days later, if the wound was kinda healed, it is said to be innocent

3. Ordeal by water: The accused (usually witches) is tied onto a pole and thrown in the river. If they drown, they are innocent.
