In the 17th century, bathrooms as we know them today did not exist; instead, people used chamber pots or outhouses for their sanitation needs. Wealthier households might have had rudimentary indoor toilets, but these were often just wooden seats over a hole. Hygiene practices were minimal, and bathing was infrequent, with many people believing that water could carry disease. Consequently, the concept of personal hygiene and bathroom facilities was vastly different from modern standards.
