Human sacrifice?

Why don’t they go ahead and say it directly?

Of course it happened in some areas in MX.

Headshake.

It is evident that human sacrifice happened in most of the world in the distant past, on just about every continent and island-there is evidence of it at archaeological sites all over the Southwest, on both sides of today’s border, as well as in states further north of the SW. I haven’t read that evidence of human sacrifice has been found in what is now Canada, but it may have been, and just not widely published. The world was a brutal place even 500 years ago, much less a couple of millennia earlier...

Victims of human sacrifice are not often buried unadorned-they usually have grave goods and such to honor the gods, and there is evidence of an unnatural demise, even if it is only being wrapped/tied up in a frigid cave, or a cord or other garrote used to strangle them, and left around the neck-it seems like the girl died of something not obvious-like heatstroke, thirst-or some illness that doesn’t leave a trace on bones. I hope there is more info on this...
