A quick definition of wehading:

Term: WEHADING

Definition: Wehading is an old way of settling disputes where the two people involved would fight each other. The idea was that God would help the person who was in the right win the fight. This way of settling disputes was used a long time ago in Europe and England during the Middle Ages. It was introduced by the Normans after 1066, but it was not very popular and was rarely used. It was replaced by other ways of settling disputes, like the grand assize and indictment, and was officially abolished in 1818. Wehading is also known as trial by combat, trial by wager of battle, trial by duel, judicial combat, duel, duellum, wager of battle, ornest, and vadiatio duelli. See JUDICIUM DEI.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Wehading is another term for trial by combat, which was a method of settling disputes in medieval Europe and England. It involved a personal battle between the disputants, with the idea that God would give victory to the person in the right.

Example: If someone was accused of a crime, they might choose to undergo wehading to prove their innocence. They would fight the person who accused them, and whoever won the fight would be considered the winner of the trial.

This method was introduced by the Normans after they conquered England in 1066, but it was not popular and was rarely used. It was eventually replaced by other methods of trial, such as the grand assize and indictment, and was formally abolished in 1818.

Explanation: Wehading was a way for people to settle disputes through physical combat, rather than through the legal system. It was based on the belief that God would intervene to ensure that the person in the right would win the fight. However, this method was not very effective or fair, and it was eventually replaced by other methods of trial that were more reliable and just.
