Key learning points: - The Scottish witch trials occurred during the 16th, 17th and early 18th centuries in Scotland. - Individuals who were prosecuted as witches were often executed. - Witches were recognised by the church as being capable of causing real harm. - Witches were seen as linked to the devil and were therefore also heretical. - Life at this time was very much dominated by the church and the desire to stamp out any connections to the devil.\n
