Project: Witch Trials
The Black Sheep Project and the Witch Trials sub-project have been dissolved. The profiles in this sub-project can now be found under their corresponding categories (see categories below)
Witch Trials occurred throughout Europe and some other parts of the world from about the 15th Century to the late 18th Century resulting in an estimated 70,000 to 100,000 executions. Later, there were some isolated incidents, but nothing like the mass hysteria of the 1600's.
