File Decameron 1432 cooking on spit.jpg thumb upright left Fowl roasting on a spit. Smoke from the fire rises to the smoke canopy, and is vented through the wall or ceiling Decameron The Decameron , Flanders , 1432. Fireplace s were not used during much of the Middle Ages, because there were no chimney s, which were not invented until the 12th century. Most fires for heating were placed on hearths in the middles of rooms, and the smoke was allowed to rise to vents in the roof or high in walls. Smoke canopies provided an alternative, gathering the smoke above a fire and venting, usually through a wall. Most of the pictures we have of medieval smoke canopies show them being used in kitchens. They usually appeared over hearths that were placed against stone walls. Some were over free standing hearths, but this required special venting of the smoke.
