Trial by ordeal involved subjecting the accused to a painful or dangerous test, with the belief that divine intervention would reveal their innocence or guilt based on the outcome. Trial by combat allowed the accused and their accuser to engage in a physical fight, with the victor presumed to be favored by God and thus deemed innocent. Both methods reflected the era's reliance on superstition and physical evidence rather than formal legal proceedings.
