Happy Columbus Day, but let’s remember our peaceful indigenous Indians, too. The Aztecs, for example, are estimated to have sacrificed up to 20,000 people per year. In 1497, 5 years before Columbus, the reconsecration of the great pyramid of Tenochtitlan saw up to 80,000 sacrificed. Some scholars put that figure closer to 20,000, but still, a lot of peacefulness. Sadly, our indigenous Indians hadn’t yet invented the wheel to be used for transport by the time Columbus came. The wheel, of course, had been in use for thousands of years in the “old world”.
Isn’t the Old Testament filled with human sacrifice as commanded by God??
How many humans were sacrificed during the time of the Holy Roman Catholic Church Inquisition? And they made great use of the “wheel”. Estimates are all over the place… but into the thousands.
It’s impossible to document how many were sacrificed by the Aztec. Likely in the thousands, although only hundreds of skulls have been found.
Do you believe the middle east sprang from nothing or did those peoples also gradually become “civilized”?
