In Medieval England the key problem was a lack of understanding of the causes of disease. People believed that disease had supernatural causes; that it was a punishment from God, by evil supernatural beings (demons or witches) or by evil spirits living inside someone. People also used natural treatments – using herbs. Medicine was dominated by the Four Humours theory created by Hippocrates, developed by Galen into the Theory of Opposites and used in the Medieval period as the main treatment for disease. People also believed in the miasma theory that bad air or smells caused disease but people in the Medieval period did not know why. Bloodletting and purging were used to balance the four humours. Medieval surgery was very dangerous, there was no way to prevent blood loss, infection or pain. Surgery was attempted rarely and for minor procedures as there were very dew trained surgeons. Many surgeons who carried out the minor surgery were called barber surgeons, who also cut hair! The Church had a big influence of Medieval medicine. The Church encouraged people to believe that disease was a punishment from God, prevented people from trying to find cures, encouraged Galen’s ideas and banned dissection. Islamic medicine also had an influence on Medieval medicine but was miles ahead of European medicine. Islamic scholars translated medical texts, encouraged scientific ideas that led to new discoveries. However religion still influenced medicine they also supported Hippocrates and Galen’s ideas and banned dissection, similar to the Christian Church.

In Medieval England, there was a contest for the throne, the main rivals for the throne were: Harold Godwinson, Harald Hardrada , William of Normandy and Edgar. When Edward the Confessor died, Harold Godwinson, Earl of Wessex, was immediately crowned king and became Harold II. The royal council, known as the Witan, supported him. He gathered an army to defend the kingdom. Harald Hardrada was king of Norway. He invaded Yorkshire with a fleet of ships, but was defeated and killed by Harold's army at the Battle of Stamford Bridge. While Harold II was in the north of England fighting Hardrada, William, Duke of Normandy invaded Sussex. Harold rushed back south to fight him. On 14 October 1066, Harold II fought William's army at the Battle of Hastings and lost. Harold was killed. William was crowned king of England on Christmas Day 1066, but it took years more fighting to conquer the whole country. The Norman Conquest changed the face of England forever. William ruled as unquestioned conqueror and the Saxons became merely an unpaid workforce for their new lords under The feudal system and the Domesday Book. The Norman Conquest also changed the history of Europe – adding the wealth of England to the military might of Normandy made the joint-kingdom a European super-power. William had new, loyal nobles from Normandy build over 100 castles all over the country. They were built extremely quickly, some in just eight days! From their castles, the new Norman lords could control the local area, and the sight of them made it clear who was now in control. The need for quick constructions meant materials such as earth and wood were used and although this sped up the building process, it meant they didn’t last very long. Over time, the more important ones were rebuilt from stone.
