Before you can truly understand an event in history, it always helps to know a little more about the background of the people involved. On this part of the website, you will learn a little more about the Puritans and how they lived around the time of the Salem Witch Trials in 1692.
Puritans were scattered throughout Salem and were the ones
involved in the trials during the late 1600s. Puritan Culture was based almost entirely around their religion. They were very serious, didn't have much intent for fun, and had extremely strict rules and ways of living. Go to the Salem Culture drop down window and take your pick; learn about their religion, daily lives, and even their specific type of clothing!
