Yes, a lot of people seem to use "medieval" as a general term for "long ago". 
When I do 17th century the public often refer to us as medieval.

Here in Britain adults don't dress up for Hallowe'en, but we did once wear 
costumes to work for one of those charity fundraising days. I wore 17th century 
clothing, and I too felt a bit as though I were cheating.
