How did European peasants and farmers protect themselves from getting sunburnt in the medieval period?

secular atheists love the climate change lie

they tanned you dumb twat

FALSE
Up until communists made it illegal in the early 20th century, most people toiled sunrise to sunset. Go be a dumb anprim nazi somewhere else.

Covering skin in mud or clay was traditional I think

It's 2019, fat neckbeards have traded their fedoras for MAGA caps

god you're a fucking retard lol

They enslaved black bvlls because european men are too weak to hold a scythe

didnt middle age poorfags only work like 3 months out of the year though?

Complete lie and not even realistic.

They worked a few hours a day and took sundays off. Also in summer they could only harvest hay and feed the animals which wasn't that much work.

Fedoras love virtue signaling about climate change.

In Cuba landlords stopped buying black slaves because hiring Galician peasants was not only cheaper but also those peasants worked more and were less rebellious

According to far extreme alt left neo communist government school retards yes

their skin got tough and leathery from years of sun exposure, and they died before melanoma got them from poor diet and diseases that are easily preventable or treatable with modern medicine.

i only heard it in passing, so cant source the comment. can you suggest anything to read on the subject?

No, they did another kinds of jobs on the other seasons, like elaborating artisanal products

Hey GENIUS, they didn't live off hay and bacon all year round.
The pests and weeds we just spray away nowadays had to be taken care of by hand back then. That alone takes many hands and it never ends, because weeds keep growing back. Dairy cattle gets milked every morning and evening and has to be taken out to pasture all day and then taken back home. Pigs have to be let out and taken in every day. Do you know how wild pigs are? People spent their whole lives dealing with absolute bullshit, just to get food on the table.

Looks like an ibex to me.

id like to redirect you here because this stuff is interesting

None of that requires working the entire day. It's a known fact they worked less hours than after industrialization, it's not even up for discussion. But of course it depended on how much profit they wanted to make, just like today.

Sorry, I readed about it while I was studying economic history at the college, the only source that I have are the words of my teacher

>None of that requires working the entire day.
Yes it does dumbass sit down faggot
you obviously don't know shit about country life. city slick faggot

They didn't. They simply were exposed to the sun from a very early age and tanned very, very well. That's the whole reason why pale skin was so revered right up until the 1920s. Everyone was tan by default, anyone who was pale was rich enough to not be outside all the time.

you have no idea what you're talking about and probably just sit in a university classroom all day

This is projection of the highest degree.

They actually did work slightly less during medieval times. Also IIRC during hunter-gatherer they estimate people spent ~2 hours a day working (i.e. gathering food).

You know you can actually read about this stuff, right? There have been people documenting how they survived on a few weeks worth of work in the 1800's and it's a fact peasants worked less hours than industrialized people.

You've never worked a day in your life

Most europeans can tan surprisingly well. It's the english and irish that burn very easily.

Scandinavians too

They covered most of the time in Europe didnt they? I am pretty sure it was common for them to wear long sleeves and head coverings.

One need only look at their attire

Hats and clothes.
>the sun didn't existed in the medieval era
What

Potato vampires

The sun is stronger now because of global warming didn't you learn anything in prison?

nigger you just couldn't work more than 4 hours as a farmer unless it was harvest time. What the fuck would you do for 12 hours after watering the crops and checking everything is all right? Stare at the fucking potatos?

Wide-brimmed hats and relatively low work hours compared to the modern corporate bugman.

places like the UK are grey and rainy all the time. when the sun was out they probably put hats on and got a bit red if they were laborers. plus the earth was objectively cooler way back when.

There wasn't much need for it. The world was experiencing a small ice age and Europe was especially affected by it.

hats like in your image.

That doesn't account for housework which was a lot more intensive back in the day.

They didn't sit inside all year until it's suddenly mid summer.
If you tan gradually you won't get burnt.

They didn't that's why they happily died evrafter in their 40's

Manmade climate change is definitely real, but god you're fucking retarded

What about the Medieval Warming Period?
