Body Snatching With (Paul Bavill)
On this episode of American Civil War & UK History, Daz is joined by the host of History Rage Podcast, Paul Bavill, to discuss body snatching.
The ‘Golden Age’ of bodysnatching was in the late 1820s in the UK. Bodies were stolen to be sold to anatomists and medical students for research and for the purpose of attracting students to medical schools. This was important for students to qualify as surgeons and anatomists. While bodies could be legally sourced from the gallows, as we started imprisoning and transporting people, we hanged fewer people, which led to the development of a massive black market.
