Axel George · Answer 2

The first historical record of bubonic plague is in Central Asia in 1338/39. It reached China and India by 1346. It infected the Black Sea port of Kaffa by 1347. One (false) legend says that the Mongols infected the city of Kaffa by shooting infected corpses over the walls with catapults.
