In 1346, the Mongol army under Janibeg Khan besieged the Genoese trading port of Kaffa in the Crimea. When plague broke out in their camp, they catapulted infected corpses over the walls. The fleeing Genoese ships carried the disease to Constantinople, Sicily, and the rest of Europe, sparking the Black Death. This episode explores the siege of Kaffa, the evidence from contemporary sources like Gabriele de' Mussi, and the debate over whether the Mongols actually weaponized plague. We discuss the spread of Yersinia pestis along Mongol trade routes, the role of the Golden Horde, and the connections between the Silk Road and the pandemic that killed a third of Europe. A story of war, trade, and unintended consequences that changed world history. #BlackDeath #MongolSiegeOfKaffa #JanibegKhan #GoldenHorde #Crimea #Genoese #GabrieleDeMussi #SilkRoad #YersiniaPestis #1346 #PlagueWeaponization #BiologicalWarfare #Kaffa #Constantinople #PandemicHistory #MedievalHistory #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
