It showed how quick society was to go off religion to punish and women being called witches made it easier for them to be burned to the cross

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think this says a lot about the role of women in the middle ages. Even though she was a strong warrior and a hero, she was regarded as a witch and punished to death. This shows how women, no matter their role or importance, were not respected or valued in society.
