Medieval Communication
Medieval Communication refers to the methods and practices utilized for exchanging information, ideas, and messages during the Middle Ages, roughly spanning from the 5th to the 15th century. This period saw the development and use of various forms of communication such as written letters, manuscripts, scrolls, carrier pigeons, messengers, town criers, and the use of symbols and codes for conveying messages. Communication during this time was often limited by factors such as literacy rates, language barriers, and the availability of resources, leading to a reliance on oral tradition and visual cues for transmitting information across regions and societies.
