PowerPoint: Medieval Life - Occupations in Medieval TimesYaryalitsa
A merchant class developed once feudalism was established in Europe. Merchants became wealthy transporting goods between regions, furthering trade. Medieval society consisted of different occupations that supported the manor and local populace. Guilds formed to support various occupations and functioned like modern trade unions by restricting membership. Common medieval jobs included domestic roles, craftspeople, attendants, and more.
The document provides information about various aspects of medieval life. It discusses medieval clothing, food, homes, government, technology, education, religion/myths, celebrations, and structures like castles. Clothing and food depended on social status, with nobles having brighter clothes and more varied diets. Peasants lived in simple stone homes while nobles resided in large stone castles. Government and society revolved around the feudal system with lords and kings. Important medieval inventions included plows and spinning wheels. Education was largely limited to boys of wealthy families. Christianity was the dominant religion and myths like King Arthur were popular. Some medieval celebrations, like Halloween, are still observed today.
1) Rich people in Tudor times derived their wealth from owning land that peasants farmed and paid rent on in the form of crops or money.
2) Kings and queens received money from taxing citizens and ruled the country from their thrones, but also enjoyed leisure activities like hunting, music, and plays.
3) Poor people had little leisure and held jobs like farmers, laborers, and craftspeople, while some could not work and resorted to begging.
Knights began their training from a young age by learning skills from their fathers and watching other knights. At age 7, noble birth boys would become pages to learn honor and behavior. At 14, they would become squires and learn weapons, armor, and hunting by serving a knight. Around 21, squires could become knights through a ceremony involving religious rituals and their hair being cut. As knights, they performed tasks for nobility like going on quests, administering justice, managing estates, and competing in tournaments, though with rules of chivalry like protecting the weak. Their main weapons were swords and armor could weigh up to 50 pounds.
A knight's duties included protecting the lord's castle, making sieges against enemy forces, and rushing into battle when needed. They also protected the king by having at least 8 knights guarding him at all times. Knights wore full suits of armor by the 15th century that covered their whole bodies and sometimes just parts of their heads. Their horses also wore armor on their necks and heads. Knights used many weapons for battle like flails, maces, axes, spears, and swords. Castles were large stone structures built between the 1100s-1500s that defended countries against invaders while also helping kings and nobles maintain power over the land. Jousting was a form of practice for war that involved
Medieval knights played an important military role and followed a code of chivalry. They would begin training as young as 7 years old and not become a full knight until age 21. As knights, they fought with various weapons and wore armor for protection. Knights were expected to use their skills and position to help the weak, defend the church, and act with honor, courage, and courtesy especially towards women.
Medieval knights could be one of three types of fighters: knights, foot soldiers, or archers. Knights wore full suits of armor, making them as powerful as modern tanks. They could overpower foot soldiers. Most kings lacked protection after many knights stopped serving in the 13th century onwards.
The path to becoming a knight began at age 7 as a page, doing simple tasks. At 14 one became a squire to train for battle. If the training was successfully completed by age 21, the squire would become an anointed knight after a ceremonial bath. Knights served lords and defended castles from ages 21 to around 40, when they retired due to fatigue from many battles.

Rich and poor people in Tudor England lived very different lives. The rich lived in large brick houses with many rooms and servants, eating meat, fish and fine clothing. The poor lived in small thatched cottages with few possessions and amenities, subsisting on vegetable soup, bread and ale. They entertained themselves with cock fighting while the rich enjoyed hunting and plays. Overall, life was very difficult for the poor compared to the wealthy in Tudor society.
The Celts lived in round houses made of wattle and daub with thatched roofs, grouped together in hill forts. They wore clothes made from homespun fabrics and engaged in agricultural activities like ploughing and pottery as well as crafts like woodworking, weaving, and metalworking, making torcs from gold, bronze, and silver. Sources provide information on Celtic clothing, appearance, homes, and way of life.
Society in the Middle Ages was divided into three estates - those who fought, those who prayed, and those who worked. The social hierarchy was rigid, with the king and lords having authority over knights and peasants. Children learned trades like crafting or farming from a young age. Boys from noble families trained to become knights, learning combat and horseback riding. Castles provided protection for lords, with fortified walls, towers, and moats. Conditions within castles, while luxurious for the nobility, lacked modern sanitation and contributed to disease spread. Entertainment included tournaments, hunting, and religious festivals.
The document discusses the history of castles in England. It provides details about several famous castles, including Dover Castle, Warwick Castle, Leeds Castle, and Windsor Castle. It describes the defensive structures and features of the castles such as thick walls, towers, gatehouses, and moats. It also mentions some reported ghost sightings at various castles in England.
The Celts lived in scattered villages consisting of round houses with thatched roofs. They wore brightly colored wool clothes and jewelry made from metals and other materials. Their diet consisted mostly of milk, meat, and other foods that could be hunted or grown locally since they had no supermarkets. Celtic warriors fought with shields, spears, swords, and other weapons like long slashing swords which they swung overhead. They also had religious beliefs including an afterlife and burial practices to prepare the dead for the next world.
The Celts lived in scattered villages of round houses with thatched roofs. They wore brightly dyed wool clothes and loved jewelry of metals and other materials. Their diet consisted of milk, meat, and foods they could grow or hunt as there were no stores. Celtic warriors carried shields, spears, daggers and long swords as iron became available, and they believed the soul had an afterlife, burying the dead with possessions.
The document summarizes the arrival and impact of the 1820 British settlers in South Africa, who came to the Eastern Cape in response to unemployment in Britain after the Napoleonic Wars. It describes how around 4,000 settlers from England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales established farms but many struggled without experience and moved to towns like Bathurst, Grahamstown and Port Elizabeth where they worked in trades. The settlers contributed to the development of these towns and South African society through industries, institutions and insisting on rights like a free press.
People lived in castles during medieval times under a feudal system established by William the Conqueror. Lords owned the land and gave some to knights in exchange for military service. Peasants or serfs farmed the land or worked as craftsmen. The castle housed the lord and his family, knights and their families, and many servants who fulfilled roles like cooking, cleaning, crafting, and providing security. Life in a medieval castle involved hierarchies and specialized jobs that supported those who lived and worked there.
Uttoxeter has a long history dating back to the Stone Age. It was successively inhabited by Celts, Romans, Vikings, and Normans. The town grew in the medieval period and received its first market charter in 1252. During the Industrial Revolution, Uttoxeter's butter market and ironworking helped drive its economy. The town also had a workhouse from 1778 to 1936, which was designed by the renowned architect George Gilbert Scott. Uttoxeter continues to develop its economy and celebrate its rich historical roots.
The document provides an overview of medieval life in feudal Europe, describing the social hierarchy and roles, daily activities, housing, clothing, health, food, and jobs. It explains that society was stratified into three main classes - nobles, knights, and peasants. Peasants lived in small communities centered around a lord and farmed the land in exchange for protection. Housing was basic, often just one or two room hovels without plumbing. Clothing styles depended on social class and seasons. Health was poor without modern medicine so barbers sometimes performed surgeries. Food consisted mainly of locally grown vegetables and meat when available. A variety of jobs existed to support daily life.
The document provides context about Victorian England, including details on social classes, currency, and locations mentioned in Great Expectations such as cathedrals and prisons. It examines the lives of the upper, middle, and working classes. The working class often lived in poor conditions and had little access to education. The document also references Pip's opportunity to go to London to study with Mrs. Havisham's help, contrasting it with the lack of opportunities for many working class children of the time.
This document discusses horseback riding and horse-drawn carriages during the Victorian era. It notes that horseback riding was primarily for the wealthy as owning a horse was expensive. It describes the typical riding outfits for men and women, with women sidesaddle. Men would help women onto their horses. Several types of horse-drawn carriages from the era are listed, from baby carriages to stagecoaches. The document states that people would ride together or in groups for transportation, relaxation and pleasure.
The Middle Ages by Filip, Wout, Kimi, and Danielcszeryk
Castles were built during the Middle Ages to protect kings, queens, and their lands from invaders. They were constructed with thick stone walls around a central keep and surrounded by a moat for added defense. While not very comfortable, castles served as homes for royalty and nobility as well as military strongholds. Over time, castles evolved from basic wooden fortresses to elaborate stone structures with private chambers, though always prioritizing defense over luxury. By the late Middle Ages, some castles fell into disrepair while others were converted into grand homes as the feudal system declined.
This document provides information about famous pirates from the Golden Age of Piracy between 1700-1722. It discusses the locations and activities of notable pirates like Blackbeard, Black Bart Roberts, Anne Bonny and Mary Read. Blackbeard operated in the Bahamas and Carolinas while Black Bart Roberts was based off the coast of Africa. Both were highly successful pirates before being killed in battles at sea. The document also notes how piracy during this era impacted colonial economies and forced an expansion of the English navy.
This presentation discusses different cultural perspectives on death throughout history and in the present day. It covers:
- The Egyptian belief in elaborate rituals and burials to pass into the afterlife, such as mummification.
- The Mexican Day of the Dead celebration, where families remember past loved ones with gifts, flowers, candles and time together in graveyards.
- Victorian mourning traditions following Queen Victoria, such as wearing black, keeping photos of the deceased, and extravagant funerals.
- Modern perspectives where death remains a difficult subject but is sometimes seen as a celebration, especially for children.
The document discusses the differences between the lives of rich and poor people during Tudor times in England. Rich people lived in large houses with glass windows and furnishings, wore expensive clothing, and did not have to work to make a living. Poor people lived in small cramped houses and had to work hard as farmers or laborers to survive, often living in poverty with few possessions.
The 12th Duke of Devonshire and his wife Amanda have lived at Chatsworth House since 2006, inheriting the estate from his father. As the head of the Cavendish family, the Duke feels lucky to preserve and share the historic house and grounds that have been passed down through his family for over 450 years. Considered the most beautiful house in England, Chatsworth has nearly 300 rooms, 35,000 acres of land, and an art collection including works by famous painters. While costly to maintain, the house and estate welcome hundreds of thousands of visitors each year through tours, exhibitions, and events, as well as generating income through filming location rentals.
Before the Vikings arrived, early Irish people used a barter system to trade goods, where various farm animals had established values in exchange. For example, six hens were equal to the value of one sheep. Cattle were considered more valuable than sheep or pigs. The Vikings brought coins and engaged in trade, introducing currency to Ireland. They became so wealthy that the Irish Vikings began minting their own coins. Northern Ireland later established its own bank notes as legal tender.
The document appears to contain previous test results from students at CEIP Gines Morata Kindergarten and Primary school regarding knights. The tests asked students about what kind of person can be a knight, when knights lived, if they could exist today, famous knights and why they are famous, and more things about knights. The results show what different aged students answered for these questions over multiple years.
Feudalism was a political and economic system that developed in Europe during the Middle Ages. Under feudalism, nobles (lords) received land and protection from kings in exchange for military service. Peasants lived on and worked the land under the lords as serfs in exchange for protection. Knights were warriors who received land and rewards from lords in exchange for fighting for them. The system established a hierarchy with the king at the top, followed by lords, knights, and peasants at the bottom.
Medieval Scotland was organized around a monarch, knights who protected castles like Stirling Castle, and a hierarchical social structure consisting of peasants who lived in Ferm Toun farm towns and worked the land using a runrig system of shared strips while poorer cottars lived in basic dwellings. Towns also developed as medieval burghs with structures like Melrose Abbey.
The Titanic carried passengers from various social classes and backgrounds. Wealthy Americans like Molly Brown and Colonel John Jacob Astor were among the first class passengers, while the Hart family were second class emigrants. Other notable passengers included the Countess of Rothes, who bravely took charge of a lifeboat, Benjamin Guggenheim who went down like a "gentleman", and Isidor and Ida Straus who refused to be separated as the ship sank. While famous passengers are remembered through records and photographs, there were also hundreds of ordinary people on board who would only be known to their families, such as the Goodwin family who did not make it off the ship in time.

The Dark Ages refers to the period from 400 AD to 1400 AD in Europe. Originally, Christians used the terms "dark" and "light" to describe the darkness before Jesus brought light to the world. Later, the Italian scholar Petrarch described the loss of learning from the Greeks and Romans as plunging Europe into the "dark." Historians then viewed the Dark Ages as a time of little culture, repeated invasions, no central government, and a poor economy and standard of living. However, many historians now disagree with labeling this entire period as a "Dark Age."
Early castles typically featured a motte (mound) surrounded by a bailey (courtyard), but later replaced the motte with a stone keep for stronger defense. Over time, castles evolved concentric walls for better protection, and features like moats, drawbridges, portcullises, and arrow slits helped defend against enemies, while dungeons held prisoners. Interior aspects included spiral staircases and wall walks connecting castle elements.
The document summarizes the development of feudalism in medieval Europe following the fall of the Carolingian Empire. Invaders like the Vikings, Saracens, and Magyars attacked Europe in the 9th-10th centuries as central authority declined. People turned to local nobles for protection, leading to a system where nobles granted land to vassals in exchange for military service. This new political and social system was called feudalism. Feudalism structured society into nobles, clergy, and peasants and was characterized by relationships of loyalty between lords and vassals.
Middle ages feudalism and manor lesson pptGreg Sill
After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Western Europe entered a period known as the Middle Ages from 400-1400 AD. During this time, feudalism developed as a political and social system out of necessity. Under feudalism, kings granted land to nobles who then protected their territory, and nobles granted land to knights and peasants in exchange for loyalty and labor. This hierarchical system helped bring order but also led to a decentralized power structure and a decline in trade, learning, and technology development over the Middle Ages.
The document discusses the social structure of feudal society. It describes the relationship between lords and vassals, with vassals owing duties to their lords. Knights were trained from a young age and served as lesser nobles. Peasants included both freemen, who paid rent but were able to leave their land, and serfs who were bound to the land. The pyramid of power placed the king at the top receiving loyalty from nobles, who received land and gave loyalty in turn, down to knights and peasants at the bottom.
Medieval architecture, also known as Gothic architecture, developed in 12th century France and spread across Western Europe through the 16th century. It featured characteristics like pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses that allowed for taller buildings with large windows. Medieval architecture was primarily religious in nature, with grand cathedrals and abbeys constructed to inspire worshippers and glorify God through their immense scale and intricate decorations. Styles evolved over the Medieval period from the heavy Romanesque to the ornate Gothic as religious architecture grew more elaborate.
Vikings primarily worshipped Norse gods like Odin, Thor, and Loki through animal and human sacrifices known as "blots". As the Viking Age progressed, some converted to Christianity but others held onto traditional polytheistic beliefs. Thor, the god of thunder, was seen as the most powerful and was depicted as a huge bearded man who rode through storms throwing his magical hammer Mjollnir.
The document provides information about the Vikings, including their origins, culture, beliefs, and way of life. It describes the Vikings as originating from Scandinavia and being skilled warriors, farmers, and craftsmen. It also outlines Viking social structures, homes, clothing, art, music, religious beliefs centered around gods like Odin and Thor, and rituals such as funerals.

This document provides an overview of medieval society in England during the Middle Ages. It describes the feudal system and the social hierarchy, with the king at the top and peasants at the bottom. Peasants lived and worked on manors, with serfs bound to the land and freemen having more independence. Knights and lords lived in castles, while towns developed trade and guilds. The Catholic Church played a major role in people's daily lives and the legal system. Over time, documents like the Magna Carta and the development of Parliament placed limits on the power of the monarchy.
Feudal society was organized in a strict hierarchy. At the top was the king, followed by nobles who were granted land from the king, known as fiefs. Nobles gave parts of their fiefs to vassals, who pledged loyalty and service, such as providing knights. Peasants lived on the land and worked for the lord, either as freemen or serfs. Serfs had fewer rights and owed much of their work and crops as rent, while freemen had more freedom. Society was also divided into clergy like bishops and monks, and the laity like nobles and peasants. Knights trained from a young age to serve their lord through combat. Castles provided protection for lords and
Knights were elite fighting men during the Middle Ages who fought from horseback in armor. It was expensive to become a knight, as they needed armor, weapons, and horses. Boys from noble families would begin training as young as age 8 to become pages and then squires, learning combat skills. At around age 20, squires could become knights through a ceremony where they were dubbed by their lord. Knights participated in tournaments and jousting for practice and entertainment in times of peace. Their role declined with the rise of professional standing armies.
This document summarizes life as a medieval princess and on a manor. It describes how the land was divided between nobles, lords, ladies, and peasants. Nobles lived in manor houses and oversaw the peasants, who farmed the land and did manual labor. As a princess, one would live lavishly in the manor house, with private rooms for the family. A princess' duties included supervising servants, keeping household accounts, and welcoming guests. Peasants lived simply and worked long hours to pay dues to the nobles. Life centered around farming, religion, and everyone working together on the manor.
In the face of invasions, kings were too weak to maintain order, leading to the rise of feudalism. Under feudalism, powerful lords divided their lands among lesser lords in exchange for loyalty and military service. Society was strictly organized with monarchs, lords, vassals, and peasants each having distinct roles. Peasants lived and worked on manors, performing labor in exchange for protection. Though their lives were difficult, peasants found community and celebration during religious festivals.
The vikings 2.ppt good copyby Jake and JordanMs Wilson
The document provides information about Vikings from the 8th to 11th centuries. It describes their social structure, daily lives, religion, art, and culture. Vikings lived in farmsteads organized around extended families and had distinct social classes. They grew crops, kept livestock, hunted, fished, and raided other parts of Europe. Children learned skills at home and had few rights. Vikings believed in Norse mythology and gods like Thor. Runes, carvings, and songs were part of their cultural traditions.
Feudal society was organized in a strict hierarchy. At the top was the king, followed by nobles such as lords and knights. Lords granted land called fiefs to vassals in exchange for loyalty and military service. Manors, the basic unit of land, were divided into the lord's demesne and peasant tenures. Peasants, including serfs bound to the land, and freemen who had more freedom, worked the lands and paid rents, taxes, and labor duties to the lord. The feudal system ensured military protection and social order throughout medieval Europe.
Norman lords and their armies lived in castles after the Norman conquest of England. Castles served as centers of local administration where peasants went to pay taxes and seek justice. Life in a castle was busy, with the lord and his household including knights, squires, servants, craftsmen, and soldiers. Daily activities included meals, chores, education, military training, recreation, and holidays. Castles were noisy places full of people, livestock, and crafts being practiced.
This document provides information about the ancient Celtic civilization and its influence on modern Celtic nations. It discusses the Celts' origins in Europe around 500 BC, their tribal culture and traditions, and how their legacy lives on today in nations like Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Brittany, the Isle of Man, and Cornwall. These modern Celtic nations each have their own unique identity, cultures, languages and traditions that descended from the ancient Celts. The document explores Celtic daily life, arts, music, mythology and how Celtic influence can still be seen in modern culture.
The document provides information about the Vikings from the 8th to 11th centuries. It describes how the Vikings originated from Scandinavia and gradually migrated to places like England and Scotland, settling in some areas but also raiding regions of Northern Europe. The summary discusses the Vikings' social hierarchy, with nobles at the top and slaves at the bottom. It also outlines aspects of daily Viking life like their housing structures, diet, family and gender roles, marriage customs, education system which emphasized practical skills, pagan religious beliefs and artistic traditions.
Under the feudal system in medieval Europe, society was organized into a strict hierarchy. At the top was the king, who granted land to barons in exchange for their loyalty and military service. Barons then divided the land among lords, who ruled local manors. In turn, lords protected peasants who lived and worked on the land, farming the fields and paying taxes to their lord. Control over land and what it produced was thus crucial to the social and political structure of feudalism.
Slaves played an important role in ancient Rome, making up millions of the population across the Roman Empire. They had no rights and were completely under the control of their owners. Slaves worked in a variety of jobs depending on their skills, from manual labor in mines and quarries to educated roles like tutors. A small number were able to gain freedom or improved conditions. The wealthy patrician class did not work and instead directed their slaves, using their wealth and leisure time for politics, baths, games, and chariot races. They lived in grand homes with central water and heating, eating lavish multi-course meals prepared by slaves.
The Vikings lived from the late 8th to mid 11th century as explorers, merchants, warriors and pirates who used longboats. Their society was hierarchical with kings, queens and nobles at the top and slaves at the bottom. Families lived together in longhouses and ate meals twice daily consisting of porridge, stew, bread and dairy. Marriage often occurred at young ages and childbirth was difficult without modern medicine. Children helped with chores from a young age and received informal education from parents. Vikings practiced polytheism and held festivals honoring gods. They created art like woodcarvings, jewelry and ornamental designs.

Our Medieval Castle Project
1. Our Medieval Castle This castle was built by students in the Atlantic Home School Assistance Program. We have been learning about the Middle Ages, which went from about 800-1500AD.
2. Early Castle Construction The first castle were built around 950 AD. Most were built between 1050 and 1350. They were built on high hills. They always had a wall around them. The rise of the feudal system made more castles. When a lord received land he quickly built a castle to protect it. By Chase, Cory & Seth
4. Peasant Life Peasants didn’t own much. They did all of the work in the castle, they served the noblemen. They took care of the animals and did the cooking and gardening. They never had a day off. They ate mostly stale bread, onions, turnips or a little cheese. By Kassidy
7. Peasant Life Falconry In the Middle Ages people took their falcons everywhere they went. Falcons were used for hunting small prey. The job of a falconer was to train and take care of the falcons. To train a falcon The falcon got used to being carried and fed A rope was tied to it and it flew after bits of food Then it was able to fly freely After all that, it would kill small prey and bring it back The falcons were kept in a mew. By Mitchell
8. Stables There were four main types of horses in the Middle Ages. Destrier - in the Middle Ages these were well bred highly trained stallions. They were used at war or tournaments. They were a little like modern dressage horses. Palfrey- It was a well bred horse that was bred for general purpose riding. Courser - The most common horse used in warfare. They were bred to be long winded horses and didn’t cost as much as Drestriers. Rouncy – These horses were used for working or riding. They were also called hackneys, which is where our word “Hack Horse” comes from. By Mariah
9. Peasant Life Hunting The kennel boys took care of the hunting dogs. The Lymer sniffed out the prey while the other dogs chased it. The dogs were kept in luxury kennels. They were better fed and more comfortable than the kennel boys who looked after them. Poachers were not allowed to kill any creature even to protect their crops. If they were caught they were penalized. By Chase & Seth
11. Peasant Life: Your Job is Your Name Smith: a metalworker Cooper: someone in charge of casks for storing beer or wine Constable: high-ranking official Granger: someone in charge of the barn or grange that stored grain Salter: someone in charge of salt production Butler: from the word “bottler,” in charge of the wine cellar
12. Peasant Life: Even More Jobs Ladies-in-waiting Laundress Baker Brewer Carpenter Huntsman Gardener Reeve Bailiff Carter Privy cleaner Servants to clean the castle Seamstress Entertainer Juggler Jester Steward Taster Pantler Butler Ewerer Carver Cupbearer Mat Weaver Spinner Groom Sweeper Falconer
13. Peasant Life: The Kitchen Cooks prepared the food, sometimes for up to 200 diners. Trenchermen carried and served the food. A spit boy turned the spit to roast meat. People ate off of hard pieces of bread called trenchers instead of plates. Food was eaten with your hands or maybe a spoon.
14. Peasant Life Servants and blacksmiths took care of the horses. Blacksmiths made horseshoes. Armorers built and repaired the weapons and armor.
15. Medieval Health There weren’t many doctors in the middle ages. Those few were not real doctors. They believed in using astronomy – relying on the stars - and whether the patient lived or died was God’s doing. By Heather
16. Medieval Health They believed in four liquids in the body. These were blood, yellow bile, black bile & phlegm. If you had too much of one liquid you would get sick. Doctors used blood letting to release the excess blood that they thought was making a person sick. By Heather
17. Protection Castle Guard This is where the knights slept and armor and weapons were kept. They slept on straw pallets.
18. Protection Dungeon Dungeons were in the lowest part of the castle. They were dark. The prisoners were fed moldy bread and water. Sometimes family members would bribe the jailer to bring prisoners blankets or bread. By Cory
19. Protection Guillotine The guillotine is when a sharp blade chops off someone’s head. Dr. Guillotin invented the guillotine. By Kassidy
20. Protection Battlements Crenels & Merlons The top of the castle had openings called crenels The sections of wall in between were called merlons. Together they formed the castle’s battlements. Knights could drop boulders or boiling oil on attackers from up there.
23. Before a boy could become a knight, he had to be a page, helping to serve food and stuff like that.
24. After a boy had been a page for several years, he became a squire. A squire was like an apprentice knight. He would help the knight to put on armor, and he would also train to be a knight.
25. Knights served and protected the nobility. They took a vow to serve the king.
26. Knights fought with swords, lances, and the occasional mace or ball-and-chain.
27. Sometimes knights had jousts where they fought with lances to practice, show off, and provide entertainment. By Hannah
28. Knights Tournaments Tournaments were held from the 12th to the 14th centuries. Tournaments were used to practice for war. They helped knights get better at fighting. They were also entertainment. They gave Lords and Ladies the chance to show off their wealth. Even though tournaments were for practice knights still sometimes died or got hurt. By Cory
30. Life of Nobility The Lord and his Lady are at the top of the feudal system. Being a child a noble usually meant you got traded to a relative when reaching a certain age. Boys would learn to be pages when sent away. Girls would go to learn how to be a wife. Marriage was usually arranged while children were still babies. Girls married at age 14. By Michalla
31. Life of Nobility Kings gave land to nobles, in exchange for their loyalty and help in war. One of the Lord’s jobs was to check to make sure everything was going right with estates and tenants. If the king summoned the Lord he had to go right away. By Michalla
34. Nobility Running the Estate The Lord’s Personal Organizer The Estate Steward helped the bailiffs make sure the estate ran efficiently and that the taxes were paid. Because people got bored with salted food, food was highly priced and the steward kept it under lock and key. By Heather
38. Girls would combine their coat of arms with that of their husband to create a new design.
39. Boys used a variation of their father’s depending on where in the family they came.By Heather
40. Life of Nobility The Lady’s important job was to make sure they had enough supplies & food. The Lady watched over the upbringing of the children. She also gave overnight guests a room and entertainment. By Michalla
41. The Church Most castles had a church or a chapel. People went to church every Sunday and many went every day to pray and worship. The chaplain or priest was many times the only one who could read and write in the village. He would end up keeping records for the castle and teaching the pages how to read. Some people became saints if something unusual happened to them, like dying in an uncommon way. The word ‘holiday’ comes from the medieval word ‘holydays.’ People enjoyed celebrating these holydays by putting on plays or going to church. By Angela
