Teenage girl poses in a replica of the Stocks in the Historic King's Square, St George, Bermuda


Teenage girl poses in the Stocks in the Historic King's Square, St George, Bermuda. Stocks are devices used since medieval times for public humiliation, corporal punishment, and torture. The stocks are similar to the pillory and the pranger, as each consists of large, hinged, wooden boards; the difference, however, is that when a person is placed in the stocks, their feet are locked in place, and sometimes as well their hands or head, or these may be chained.
