Ep 126 - Markets and Market Towns
Added 2023-08-02 13:34:27 +0000 UTCpatrons, here's your ad-free version of this week's regular episode. we answer a question from Cristina and took the topic from a suggestion by mpreg tamerlane.
we're back to talk about a huge facet of Medieval life: going to the market. what were they like? what was a market town? what could you buy there? who went to market? how were they run? were Medieval goth kids hanging out at the market like they do at the mall? we will discuss all of that plus the social and cultural functions that markets allowed for and more.
attached is a map showing various routes for the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage, which Eleanor discusses in our opening question
