Scottish Witches - The Story of the Persecution of Witches in Scotland (1563 - 1736)RRP: £5.99Our price: £3.99You save: £2.00 (33%)ViewIn sixteenth and seventeenth century Scotland, to be accused of being a 'witch' was extremely dangerous. An estimated 4000 witches were arrested, with 2000 put to their deaths in this period (from the first Act against Witches in 1563 to its repeal in 1736). Death was by strangulation at the stake, and burning, or drowning. The word of someone against you was enough evidence to be life-threatening in some cases. Today there is action to clear the names of those in Scotland who were accused and lost their lives. To date, unlike the witches of Salem, Massachusetts, USA, for example, Scotland's witches prosecuted under the law against them, have never been 'pardoned'. https://petitions.parliament.scot/petitions/PE1855
