6. CRIME AND PUNISHMENT Tudor punishment were very horrid like if you got drunk you would get put in the barrel. Or if you stole you may get a letter burnt on your arm or a limb choped off.

7. TUDOR MEDICINE It is thought that only about 10% of all Tudors lived to be beyond their 40 th birthday – and one of the reasons, among many, was the poor standard of Tudor medicine and medical knowledge. Deafness – mix the gall of a hare with grease from a fox. Warm the resulting concoction and place it in the ear. Baldness – shave the head and smear onto the scalp the grease from a fox. An alternate cure was to crush a garlic bulb and rub it into the scalp and then wash the scalp in vinegar.
