Europeans have known how to bathe, wash & use soap for 1000s of years, before the Roman era. This knowledge did not vanish with the Romans. Medieval Europeans also bathed, used soap & loved bath houses. Nobody didn't bathe for years, it was not normal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visigothic_Kingdom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soap#Roman_Empire https://www.medievalists.net/2013/04/did-people-in-the-middle-ages-take-baths/ https://twitter.com/TimONeill007/status/1694816860674609562 https://www.famsf.org/artworks/the-bath https://www.historyextra.com/period/medieval/did-medieval-people-take-baths-why-they-were-cleaner-than-we-think-middle-ages-hygiene-handwash-washing-cleanliness-coronavirus-plague-covid/ http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2019/08/did-people-in-medieval-times-really-not-bathe/ https://www.ancient.eu/Medieval_Hygiene/ https://daily.jstor.org/scrub-a-dub-in-a-medieval-tub/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1843103591307128937
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
