17th C Healer Mug
"17th Century healer women were not burned as witches." Brew truth into your morning routine. This mug shatters the persistent myth that skilled female healers in the 1600s were routinely accused, tried, and executed as witches just for knowing how to cure a cough. The real story? These women were often respected, vital to their communities, and far more likely to be midwives than martyrs. Reducing them to victims of witch trials oversimplifies a much richer, more complex history. Perfect for feminist historians, myth-busters, and anyone who’s tired of lazy historical clichés.
• 11 oz ceramic mug, ideal for herbal tea and historical accuracy
• Microwave and dishwasher safe
• A sharp gift for academics, educators, and anyone who prefers facts over folklore
