#history #taboo #cannibalization • Cannibalism. The ultimate taboo. But throughout history, many cultures practiced it for reasons beyond our modern comprehension. • Neanderthals, our ancient relatives, may have consumed each other for survival or ritual purposes. Bones with cut marks and signs of de-fleshing tell a chilling tale. • The Aztecs practiced ritualistic cannibalism, believing it honored the gods and sustained the cosmos. Hearts were offered, and sometimes bodies consumed. • The Fore people of New Guinea practiced 'endocannibalism,' eating the remains of their own kin, particularly the brains. Tragically, this led to the spread of a deadly disease called Kuru. • Fiji, once known as the 'Cannibal Isles,' saw cannibalism as a display of power and dominance over enemies. It was a gruesome part of their warfare. • From the Amazon rainforest to the Pacific islands, cannibalism has existed in various forms, driven by survival, ritual, warfare, and beliefs we may never fully understand.
