Made by SimmyRN for The Merrye Makers

Greetings, good gentles/ladies. We are The Merrye Makers - a group of twelve creators spanning all disciplines (clothing, lots, objects, etc.) offering for thy downloading pleasure a collection of medieval things most beauteous from Ye Olde Kingdom of Pudding -- otherwise known as "Simdom Pudding".

Science in Simdom Pudding comprised the study of nature, including practical disciplines, the mathematics and natural philosophy. Nature was seen as a coherent system functioning under divinely established laws that could be comprehended in the light of reason. Early Ye Olde Kingdom of Pudding scholars were bookwormish clergymen for whom the study of nature was pursued more for practical reasons than as an abstract inquiry: the need to care for the sick led to the study of medicine and of ancient texts on drugs, the need for monks to determine the proper time to pray led them to study the motion of the stars, the need to compute important dates led them to study and teach rudimentary mathematics and the motions of the Sun and Moon. Others in Simdom Pudding relied heavily on three scientific paradigms - alchemy, astrology, and folk belief – to explain natural phenomena and produce useful predictions. Alchemists believed that metaphysical processes could be used to transmute one substance into another. Astrologists believed that the lives of Ye Olde Kingdom of Pudding residents were determined, predestined, or influenced by the action of celestial bodies - particularly the Moon. Folk beliefs were superstitious, religious, or commonly held ideas that were whispered throughout the realm.
