Rare set of varied factors triggered Black Death
https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/12/how-volcanoes-helped-spark-the-black-death/

The Black Death ravaged medieval Western Europe, ultimately wiping out roughly one-third of the population. Scientists have identified the bacterium responsible and its likely origins, but certain specifics of how and why it spread to Europe are less clear. According to a new paper published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment, either one large volcanic eruption or a cluster of eruptions might have been the triggering factor, setting off a chain of events that brought the plague to the Mediterranean region in the 1340s.

Venice treacle

When the English gentleman John Evelyn left Venice in 1646, after almost a year in Venice and Padua, he had more stuff than when he had arrived. From his diary for late March 1646:

Having packed up my purchases of books, pictures, casts, treacle, &c., (the making and extraordinary ceremony whereof I had been curious to observe, for it is extremely pompous and worth seeing) I departed from Venice …

Venice was in practice the printing house of Europe, so obviously Evelyn had acquired books for his library back home. In Venice, Evelyn found a wider and more international selection of books than was ever available in London at the time.

Likewise, Venice was a centre for the arts, so paintings and casts also made it into Evelyn's luggage.

The treacle, however, was something quite different.

In one of countless vile #pogroms against the #Jews of Europe, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1349 the Jewish population of #Basel, Switzerland (up to a few hundred people) was locked into a wooden structure and burnt alive, after they were blamed for causing the #plague / #BlackDeath.

Chapter 2 of Pathogenesis — Jonathan Kennedy 20241 concerns Paleolithic Plagues, in part how Western Hunter Gatherers were replaced by Neolithic European Farmers about 5000 years ago.

Could diseases have helped a relatively small community of shepherds to replace a well-established farming society in northern Europe in the first half of the fifth millennium BCE? Although we don’t yet have a smoking gun, there is strong circumstantial evidence that indicates this might have been the case…

It is highly likely that the sharp fall in the population that occurred in Britain and the rest of western Europe about 5,000 years ago was caused by a “Neolithic Black Death.” But this devastating epidemic differed from the fourteenth-century Black Death in one crucial respect. Yersinia pestis did not evolve into a flea-borne bubonic plague until the beginning of the first millennium BCE…

Could the plague have been the cause of the population crash between 5,500 and 5,000 years ago? Did Yersinia pestis contribute to the decline of the first farming people who built Stonehenge?

One supposition in the book is that unable to jump from rats via fleas, it was spread human to human by coughing/sneezing.

Now there is proof of sheep hosting the Late Neolithic Bronze Age (LNBA) plague.
https://archaeologymag.com/2025/12/a-4000-year-old-sheep-bronze-age-plague/

An international team of researchers has found the DNA of Y. pestis in a 4,000-year-old domesticated sheep from the fortified Bronze Age settlement of Arkaim, in the southern Ural Mountains in present-day Russia, which marks the first confirmed case of a Bronze Age plague infection in a non-human host. It proves that livestock played a role in prehistoric plague dynamics.

Although the reservoir or directionality of the infections is unknown, the identification of Y. pestis in an ancient domesticate suggests that sheep husbandry elevated the possibilities for transmission to and from humans.

1If you are currently living through a pandemic, this book is relevant and fascinating.

A 4,000-year-old sheep may reveal how the Bronze Age plague spread across Eurasia

The plague moved through Europe during the medieval period with devastating speed, causing millions of deaths as fleas spread Yersinia pestis from rodents to humans. However, long before that catastrophe, a different plague circulated across Eurasia during the Bronze Age...

Went to the last instance of Gothic Maine's #Plague night this weekend (the proceeds of which went to the #Unhoused in #Maine). I first DJ'ed with them 20 years ago, and had some very cool nights I organized with them... Including #WickerMan and #NineteenEightyFour nights! The end of an era!

If someone told you that locking eyes with a stranger would infect you with a fatal plague, what would you do? Would you close your eyes in terror? Or would you use it as an excuse to hurt those you already despised?
