No one knows. They quickly became fashionable at one point and then dissapeared from illustrations. Being shelled, maybe they poked fun at armoured knights, they often appear in combat or in jousts.

>the bonasus is found in Paeonia. It has the mane of a horse but otherwise resembles a bull.

Contact with the dung burns pursuers as though they had touched fire

To be fair: the vast majority of movies are incredibly badly researched. They're filled with anachronisms, e.g. when it comes to arms and armour, clothes, hairstyles, etc.

I don't think things have changed that much. The fact that nowadays artists are usually off by roughly 200 - 500 years rather than 1000 years isn't really that much of an improvement given the fact that people could put a lot more effort into these things and knowledge is a lot more accessible than it was in past periods.

this makes pretty much no sense whatsoever since snails only come out during very wet and humid days and don't go inside houses or similar dry places.

I think it's just some general illustration of some crippled person dying.
It says something along the lines of

"Come closer with your crutches
[?]
The living did not do good to you
Death will show exceptional mercy to you

A poor [fellow?] in life
Who was a friend to nobody
But death wants to be his friend
He takes the poor man with the [crippled?] leg"

Not him, but the font is absolute garbage and I can hardly make out the letters, the words are obscure but understandable in their context, it's about a poor man, crippled who will find sooth in death, because "tot" will show him mercy.

Alcohol use was rampant. Cannabis was known of, and Scythians at least used it widely in earlier centuries. Somewhat doubtful that it was common, as obviously illiterate peasants could not have ordered it, and literate monks and such were probably not that likely to try it. As Asian trade increased in the Renaissance, it was certainly imported, as Shakespeare for example is known to have used it. Other entheogens were a common part of shamanic tradition, so I guess it would depend how Christian you were and feared 'the devil'. But magic mushrooms were definitely used by more pagan- or animist-leaning people.

"The Dance of Death" was a frequent and long-lasting Medieval meme. There are hundreds of examples of dancing/piping/drumming/bagpiping skeletons reminding mortals that their time is always near. (SO PRAY HARDER!).

Quite honestly, death was everywhere, life expectancy was low. Medieval Europe was very violent. Murder, banditry, domestic abuse (as we'd call it today) and 'officials' killing with impunity were common, not to mention wars and diseases.

That was political commentary by nuns. I remember hearing a podcast about it some time ago. Penis trees is fairly easy to recall.

Look at those proportions. It's like that guy never even saw a vagina. Just like most cukk-fetishists.

So snails and rabbits showed up a lot in meme context.
Also I heard that some monks would secretly meet up with nuns in underground passages between monasteries and fuck like crazy, is that true?

"this gathering sucks, forsooth. the invitations had thin ink for Christ's sake"

"I know none of these peasants appreciate their ale for having spent this day writing from sun up to sundown while freezing their asses off"

"I hope no one can tell I'm totally naked under my robe"

>tfw this madrigal isn't sacred.
"i wish i was back in the tower, chanting"

Monks where the medieval equivalent of 4chan neets. They where virgins that sat at home drawing dank memes all day long.

is being a neet a "cringe" sort of thing?
>>375560
>fucking cringe
were my jokes that bad?
i posted >>375528 and admitted I didn't know how to put together a picture like that (not a computer geek type) and that I haven't made up OC meme posts before on /his/. i'm neither a neet nor a virgin, and I definitely don't sit at home drawing dank memes all day long.

so... did you "fucking cringe" at me or my jokes? or both?
I'm neither a neet nor a virgin and I definitely don't sit at home drawing dank memes all day long.

if THIS post doesn't cringe you anons into oblivion. seriously, please give me better feedback than "fucking cringe".

what is with you guys? You're the real troll here, I think.

I honestly thought the jokes in the pic the guy did >>364765
were good. I saw a couple anons liked it. I thought up a few more, that I thought related back to what the monks actually wrote >>362141
