See post #3. Mostly BS. Yeah, there were some pretty depraved tribes who enjoyed killing, torture and human sacrifice (think the Aztecs and, to a much lesser extent, the Comanche), a handful which practiced cannibalism (Tonkawa, ancient Anasazi) and might have been a few here and there which tolerated or even embraced homosexuality, but they were the exception and not the rule.

The article itself is lacking enough detail (tribes, time, places) to make it suspect.

Tribal lore among the Sioux and the Utes with whom I have family ties considered sexual abuse of children so contemptible that the corpse of such an offender so executed would not even be handled-- it was typically pushed over a cliff, riverbank or forbidden area with a long pole.
