Why Medical Cannibalism Was So Popular in Britain | Gods & Monsters | Absolute History

Tony Robinson encounters corpses mutilated after death, a twelfth century plague-spreading zombie, and cannibalistic King of England in his quest to discover why our ancestors were so afraid of the dead.

Tony Robinson delves back through 2,000 years of history to investigate the beliefs of our ancestors. From the brutal human sacrifices of Iron Age Britain, through the stomach-churning supernatural medicine of the Middle Ages, to the horrifying witch hunts and exorcisms of the 16th and 17th centuries (and beyond), Tony’s remarkable journey takes him to some of the darkest moments in our past.
