Medieval villages grew into
towns because of the growth of Religion. Medieval peasants were attracted by
religious centers which led to the growth of small villages into towns. With
the continuous growth of population, these towns have grown into places or
landmarks where people could easily meet.
As the
development grew through time, the supply for water was mostly needed by these
towns, that is why most of them were built along rivers. Aside from a water
supply, the rivers also played a big role in the disposal of sewage.
