Original Note:
Medieval peasants typically worked from sunrise to sunset, which varies from 8-16 hours per day: http://projectbritain.com/weather/sunshine.htm Medieval peasants worked more hours then most people do today. The 1,600 hour estimate is based upon time spent for their lord only: https://www.adamsmith.org/blog/regulation-industry/medieval-peasants-really-did-not-work-only-150-days-a-year Peasants had few rights: https://richardrabil.com/2018/05/10/medieval-peasants-worked-less-than-you-fake-news/
