In the Czech Republic, you can find documents from the 11th century about witchcraft and witch trials.

What was the reason for blaming witches? Too hot weather, no rain, and bad agriculture.

Can it be that at that time, only old witches worked? And their hormonal balance was too bad.. and they felt cold, so they made the weather too hot?

How did they punish the witches in the 11th century? They were not allowed to go to the church or talk with others...

It was a social samfund answer... just like one of the Aarhus University professors explains in his book about the common practice in Denmark, where they educate humans in the country, who behave differently than what the mainstream would like to see. They also recommend not to talk with them...

Can we say that the actual Denmark uses solutions from he 11th-century Czech Republic witch hunters?

When did they kill the first witches in the Czech Republic? 13th century...

In which regions were the witch hunts and witch trials? Jesenica and Šumperk

Soon more...
