My life in the middle ages

Tokens yay

Jan 8, 1256

The rich gave 2 tokens to the poor. The rich people use to give the poor charity every year because if it wasn't for the poor the rich wouldn't be rich.

New home

Feb 25, 1256

I got to move into a home.
Homes back in the middle ages had thatched roofs. Most peasant family had house with only one room wich meant the slept and ate in the same room. Some people put rushes as their floor but that only helped spreed the plague.

While I was walking down the street someone chucked their waste of the roof and it landed on my head. People would bath and brush their teeth. Before eating they had to wash their hands.The poor would have to bath in cold water and the rich got hot water providedThe people in the middle ages didn't have a toilet and some times they chucked it of their roof.

Bigger house

I got a bigger house. The king made me a knight and demanded that I got a bigger house. With a bigger house I have extra's rooms to rent out

Missing

Aug 8, 1256

I had to go into hiding because I left working for the king and he wants me back.
A king would have a whole of people working for him doing all diffrent types of jobs. Depending on what your job is was how much you would get paid. Knights were one of the most paid workers for the kings. Peasants would get paid hardly anything.

I got killed

Oct 30, 1256

I caught a diesease.
Diseases were easy to catch back in the middle ages. There was a thing called the Black Death. The Black Death was the cause of millions of people dying. The Black Death also known as the Bubonic Plague was transmitted by bacteria or flea bites. The symptoms if you had the plague were inflamed lymph nodes in the armpit, groin and neck area. People who had the plague would have respiratory failure and normally die within 3 days.
