They were also into cannibalism. Highly advanced alright.
And human sacrifice and compare their building bloc architecture.
These pronouncements are ALWAYS political
I suspect they have sacrificed far less people than we have, 58 million and counting...
Salt and pepper fixed their illegal immigrant problem.
It’s quite a contrast. The third-worldness of Latin American society today compared to the US, when the Mayan/Aztec empires flourished in the same company while North American Indians never got past hunter-gathering, wheel-less savagery. Climate doesn’t seem to be very much of a factor. Oh, and is religious cannibalism, which is what it was, really that far removed for eating one’s god?
I've visited several Mayan sites and have done extensive reading about the culture. I've never run into any indication of cannibalism. Do you have any links, references or anything to back up your comment?
