Archaeologists find new mass child sacrifice site in Peru

A group of archaeologists has discovered the remains of more than 50 children who were ritually sacrificed by the pre-Columbian Chimu culture on the northern coast of what is now Peru.

The site is located a close to another where evidence of the biggest-ever sacrifice of children was found, with more than 140 youngsters were slain. But the most recent discovery may be even bigger.

“So far we have found the remains of 56 children who were sacrificed by the Chimu culture,” archaeologist Gabriel Prieto told AFP.

“At this new site, we can easily double the number of remains we found in Huanchaquito,” he said, referring to the nearby location where over 140 dead were found.

The new sacrifice site was discovered in the Pamapa La Cruz area in Huanchaco, a coastal district of Trujillo, Peru’s third-largest city.

Prieto said that the remains of the children, who were aged between six and 14, were found in early May wrapped in cotton shrouds facing the sea, a kilometer (less than a mile) north of Huanchaquito.

“The interesting thing is that they were sacrificed with a cut in the sternum and display opened ribs like in Huanchaquito,” which reinforces the idea that “Huanchaco was a place where massive sacrifices of children were made during the Chimu culture,” he said.

In Huanchaquito, the remains of over 140 children and 200 llamas slain some 550 years ago were discovered, National Geographic reported in late April.

Those excavations date back to 2011, when the remains of 42 children and 76 llamas were discovered in a 3,500-year-old temple, according to the report.

A really good movie to watch is Apocalypto. Its only a movie but it touches on the subject of the brutality of the Aztecs. Well, more than touches on. As a matter of fact that is what the movie is aboot I think.

The San Diego State University Aztecs were forced to give up their mascot: disrespectful to Montezuma. They had to fight to keep their name.

You realize this culture was around 2000 years before Cortez was a gleam in his daddy's eye?

Then what does this mean (emphasis added):

In Huanchaquito, the remains of over 140 children and 200 llamas slain some 550 years ago were discovered, National Geographic reported in late April.

"Prieto said that the remains of the children, who were aged between six and 14"

The Chimu culture sponsored very late term abortions. Did they also harvest body parts as has been done by the 21st century progressive culture?

Planned Parenthood and the democrat party are not impressed.

The Biblical consequence for nationally legalized child sacrifice is invasion and conquest. There can be one reprieve with outlawing it but once it is again ordained, it’s over. If there is no outlawing the practice, the time of the invasion is up to God.

America has butchered over 50 million children.

“Surely at the command (mouth) of the LORD it came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, and also for the innocent blood which he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; AND THE LORD WOULD NOT FORGIVE.” [All caps mine] 2 Kings 24: 3 &4.

Manasseh sacrificed his firstborn.

#17. Some of their descendants today are called MS-13, but they were from the Central American section of the family.

However, Peru’s Maoist “Khmer Rouge” Sendero Luminosa” were worthy of their Atzec ancestors for cruelty and killings they committed against their own people.

“Gee, maybe the birthplace of Western Civilization?”

Gee, maybe you ought to read a thicker history book and see some of the weird stuff the Greek world condoned, and by using your standards, you would be screaming that it ought to be destroyed.

“Apocalypto” was an amazing movie. I cannot believe it isn’t available on DVD from Netflix nor do they have it available for streaming. Their library is shrinking daily.

The movie was largely ignored when it came out because it is a Mel movie and Mel Gibson has been on the outs with hollyweird for some time. I thought it was outstanding. For a time I called my son "almost". He was young and he was almost always in trouble or almost there or almost done etc.....

I did not know it was not easily available. Maybe it did not fit the narrative of the indigenous mafia and is secretly black listed. Or it could be the fact that it is not in english or dubbed and the dumb shallow crowd can't handle that. readin so hard.

Democrats should be proud. Peru was “pro-choice” centuries before Nancy Pelosi stood up for the right to murder children.

My point.

Once all involved are dead, drop it.
