Half-wits and iesters. last em ployed in England by Elizabeth l, onen served in the courts ot European kings, Popes and noblemen and the entourages of African potentates. Their patrons realized that laughter helps the digestion and traditionally had the buffoons clown at mealtime, reports the National Geographic Society. In Russia, for instance, nobles served giant pies out of which dwarfs popped. Experts believe the first jest ers were women.
