Witches and the W word
and they didn't have much protection, plus they were a very small group. It wouldn't be hard to imagine that if he could blame them, he could actively persecute them and get rid of them, AND get his building projects underway and get away scott-free, killing two birds with one stone. So, of course, the famous Roman Christian Hunts began. And pretty much every culture and religion under the Roman rule followed suit.
