The Middle Ages (120) : Young Girl

This series is an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in the Middle Ages.

***

In those medieval times, childhood was in fact insignificant.
Children dependent on their parents until they were about 7 years old, thereafter their youth was past.

The practice of a youthful marriage was very common and many girls were already married at the age of…..14 years !
