    Toilets were often found near the guard houses in a lot of those larger bronze age, norman era castles. The walls of the castle are not painted white for no reason either, white refelcted more light through the windows which in turn brightened up the chambers.

    I'm 1 of the 10%, left handed & received an A+ in archery, however, I wouldn't want to battle in those winding cases. The deadly architecture of castles is intimidating, but breathtakingly beautiful nevertheless. There's so much history & my guess was Brave Heart🏹🛡.

    • @schatzsucher
      @schatzsucher  4 года назад +3

      If you notice on the right side of the door, before heading up the stairs, there is a hole in the wall. This was called a murder hole, from which arrows could be fired through. I've imagined living in a castle also, however it does seem as they would be rather cold, not only in temp. but also in feel....not very warm and cozy!

    1. The small door was used so people could escape when an enemy was attacking
    2. Hot water with sand
    3. I don't know many movies
    4. Staircases went clockwise so if an enemy was running up them they would run up them slower
    5. Not sure but I will guess Italian
    6. Toilets were in the walls and the waist traveled in to the moats
    7. A cannon would get stuck in the wall
    8. Either salt or pepper
    9. 15 I guess it depends on how well trained the archer was

    Hmm? Does anyone know where the toilet is? Ohh! That must be the answer to Does anyone what they poured over their enemy? 😂
    Did YOU know castle steps were also unevenly spaced and sized. Some were really narrow, others too wide. Some places close together, others spaced far apart. Those who lived in the castle knew the pattern and could hop, skip and jump them...allowing them to flee quickly. The enemy chasing them would misstep, trip and fall....or be forced to take them slowly at the very least.

    Great video. It seems odd to me that salt of all things would have been in short supply in Ireland of all place. I mean, aren’t they an island surrounded by salt water? It would seem they’d have an unlimited supply of sea salt. I would have guessed literally any other spice than salt. It seems that that’s what would have been the most abundant and readily available. I wonder how they preserved their meat...

      Excellent point. When researching the facts for this video I was focusing on Medieval times in general. Also, I think the use of salt as food preservative consumed much of the supply. Thanks for watching :)

      Do you understand how much water boiling they would have had to do to get the salt they needed? Salt was imported and the royals/wealthy were the only ones who could afford it. Salt was for cooking but it was also a meat preservative.

      Kay InMaine I would encourage you to research how sea salt is made. There is no boiling involved.

    So a ? Maybe I'm reading to much fairytale but don't castle's have a throne for the King a fancy chair at the end of a large hallway looking room where you walk down to the King

      Yes, that's what I expected also. This is supposedly one of the largest and best preserved castles in Ireland which seems strange. It was an amazing place to visit but I expected a castle to be much bigger and more glamorous, like in a fairytale. This castle dates back to 1142 so I think it has something with the time period. I think the castles in Germany are more like the fairytale ones. Next time I'm in Germany I'll visit a bigger castle and make a video! Thanks for watching :)
