The Knife, Sacrifice and Meaning

HUMAN SACRIFICE HAS BEEN COMMON IN MANS PAST IT IS EVEN MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE. THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN STORIES OF CANNIBALS SINCE ANCIENT TIMES CYCLOPS,ORGES ,ECT. OFTEN FALSE ACCUSATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE AGAINST A SOCIETY BY THEIR ENEMYS TO MAKE THEIR PEOPLE HATE AND FEAR THE ENEMY AND FIGHT BETTER FEARING THE TERRIBLE THINGS THAT THEY HAD BEEN TOLD WOULD HAPPEN TO THEM IF THEY LOST. FALSE ACCUSATIONS HAVE ALSO BEEN WRITTEN BY THE WINNERS OF THE WAR OR CONQUEST TO EXCUSE THE TERRIBLE THINGS THEY HAD DONE.

TODAY IT IS POLITICALLY INCORRECT IN MY COUNTRY TO BRING UP SOME SUBJECTS REGARDLESS OF THE TRUTH OF IT. I SUSPECT THAT IS WHY IN THE MOVIE THIS WAS TIPTOED AROUND AND THE BODIES WERE SHOWN DISCARDED EVEN THOUGH THE PEOPLE WERE STARVING DUE TO CROP FAILURE AND SICKNESS. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE AZTEC MANY YEARS AGO AND LOOKED UP SOME OF THE WRITTEN REPORTS FROM CORTEZ TO SPAIN THEY MENTIONED THE SKULL RACKS, CANNIBALISM. ONE REPORT TOLD OF HOW HE AND HIS MEN WITNESSED THE SACRIFICE OF SOME OF THEIR GROUP THAT HAD BEEN CAPTURED AND WHAT HAPPENED IN DETAIL. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN FABRICATED FOR THE REASONS MENTIONED ABOVE BUT SUBSEQUENT ARCHEOLOGICAL DIGS HAVE TURNED UP LARGE NUMBERS OF HUMAN SKELETONS SHOWING THE KNIFE MARKS ON THE BONES INDICATING THEY HAD BEEN BUTCHERED. THIS IS NOT MENTIONED MUCH AS SOME GROUPS OR GOVERNMENTS WOULD BE OFFENDED BUT THERE IS EVIDENCE THAT IT DID OCCUR IN SOME AREAS, TRIBES AND TIMES THRUOUT HISTORY. DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT GO DO SOME RESEARCH, IT IS A INTERESTING SUBJECT AND ANCIENT AMERICAN CIVILIZATIONS WERE QUITE REMARKABLE. IT IS TOO BAD THAT SO MUCH OF THEIR HISTORY HAS BEEN DESTROYED OR SUPPRESSED BY THOSE WHO CONQURED THEM.
THE ARCHEOLOGISTS HAVE MADE SOME VERY REMARKABLE FINDS IN RECENT TIMES AND CONTINUE TO MAKE GREAT DISCOVERYS TODAY BUT IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THEY HAVE JUST SCRATCHED THE SURFACE IN SOME AREAS. SEE ARCHEOLOGY MAGAZINE, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC AND NOVA. THERE HAS BEEN NEW DISCOVERIES EVERY YEAR FOR MANY YEARS AND WITH THE NEW SATALITE TECKNOLOGY THIS COULD BE THE BEGINNING OF THE BOOM YEARS FOR ARCHEOLOGY IN THE AMERICAS.
