Scottish Witchfinder


Nearly four thousand people were accused of witchcraft in Scotland between 1563 and 1736; nearly 85 percent were women. The University of Edinburgh’s online Witches Map is an internship project that visualizes where the accused lived, where they were detained, where they were put on trial, and where they died, when that data is available.
