The filthy Middle Ages of popular imagination don't match the record. These myths fall one by one against manuscript evidence of regular bathing, dental care, and laundry, plus climate data that shaped hygiene habits. Working through them lets you decide how grimy the era really was.

Dragging a checked bag through airports is a habit, not a requirement.

Compare them and you can board with one bag and still have everything you actually need.
