What is the modern myth about bathing in the middle ages?
There is a widespread belief that people did not bathe in the Middle Ages. This myth arises because bathing went out of practice during the Renaissance, when people worried that it was unhealthy and rich people could afford perfume. Since we have a tendency to regard the Renaissance as a period of improvement, we often ascribe anything about it that was unpleasant to the Middle Ages. During most of the Middle Ages, however, people regarded cleanliness as next to godliness, and kept themselves very clean. There is a link below.

Which of the following types of decoration was often used in Italian churches during the middle ages?
I think the primary was stain glass. It was seen as the light of God and it was a way for the church to educate the people about the bible. People couldn't read but they could interpret the stories in glass. Then, the next was the flying buttresses and the statuary. Not to mention the fresco's . All of this worked together for a special space full of light and color like nothing else in the middle age world. Seeing these today is still an awe inspiring experience.
