News of the Black Death reached Europe about a year before the disease itself did. It spread across the Mediterranean area very quickly, by ship, and then overland more slowly to the north. People usually heard of it before it arrived.

I have read (sorry, I cannot remember where) that there were walled towns and cities that drew up the drawbridges over their surrounding moats, and treated the Black Death as though it had been a besieging army, keeping out everyone and everything until it passed, which was usually a period of some months. A very few such communities were able to survive without sickness and death because they were warned.

Why are black people afrade of water?

Honestly, aside from the narrow mindedness of this question, please do learn to spell black and afraid. I think the answer is more of a why are people afraid of water. I would have to ask if the people in question are afraid from all water, or jumping in to an ocean or river. Please don't take this as an insult, but just because a certain group of people are afraid of something doesn't mean all of them are. I know a human who is afraid of spiders, are all humans?
