London Medieval Murder Map
- qwytw 3y agoVery cool project. But the UX is terrible. The text shows up when you click the market and later hover over it (?). Parts of the text box might not fit in the map and it's very hard to read.
- ez_mmk 3y agoCool map bit finicky on mobile
- punnerud 3y agoUse Opera Browser and switch to desktop mode, works great on iOS (iPhone 13 pro). Mostly use Safari, but started using Opera every time I need real desktop mode.
- xwdv 3y agoAny plans to mark these locations in real life somehow? Would be great for a London Medieval Murder tour.
- amelius 3y agoIs there a modern version too?
- davidgaleano 3y agoThe equivalent for current crimes: https://crimerate.co.uk/crime-map https://crimerate.co.uk/crime-map
- davidgaleano 3y agoThis one does require an account: https://www.police.uk/ https://www.police.uk/ You have to select an area and then select crime map.

- darkclouds 3y agoI wonder how much violence was due to diabetes, as its been documented since 600 years before christ? Alcohol being the main sources, sugar cane consumption didnt appear until the 1700's. Likewise although fewer in number, the female threshold for murder seems to be lower, but it would have been nice to have known what the male thresholds were, ie what the disputes were about. This could also show that females have other creative ways at getting back at people they feel aggrieved by, which might not be detected by law enforcers and thus remains under the radar and creates a vacuum of pertinent laws, with the only warning being "hell has no fury than a woman scorned". And being part of an organisation like a guild or religion also seems to increase the chances of becoming a murderer!

- 2Gkashmiri 3y agoI don't get it. Is it talking about bestiality or sodomy but is the woman the prisoner or someone else is prisoner? Any help?
- JohnAaronNelson 3y agoThe married woman enjoyed having sex with a dog so she invited others to come watch.
- 2Gkashmiri 3y agoSo... She was the prisoner?
- JohnAaronNelson 3y agoYes
- Oarch 3y agoMy interpretation is that she was caught in the act by her neighbours. Or maybe it never happened and they just wanted her gone/imprisoned, who can say? But the "evidence" in court is that the dog ran straight up to her, sealing her fate sadly.
- guerilla_prgrmr 3y agotag the guys in r/OSINT for a challenge, must be a few open cases lol
