Minor nit: Soap is not a medieval invention. It has been around since ancient Egypt. One of the most classic soaps is still in production today https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleppo_soap https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleppo_soap which was the forerunner to Castile soap (I'm not sure how much the Syrian war has affected production, Aleppo was hit hard).
