Viking and Medieval Toilets! Pooping in the Past!

This is a very, very short introduction to just a few of the ways people found to deal with the problem of poo (and pee) piling up in the medieval age! From pits, latrines, and buckets, to garderobes and river bridges, there's so much to explore in this filthy, fascinating subject that I will absolutely end up doing another video on pooping and historical toilets! Oh poop yes!

Brace yourselves, get a nice soft almanac ready, and let's... er... jump in.

(again, they have not paid me for this, but as I'm technically endorsing them I ticked the "paid promotion box because YT can be iffy)
