I can’t find instances of human sacrifice by burning with loud music on any continent. The only instances of ritual human sacrifice I can find are in the Americas. What’s so cathartic about killing a person? I can understand punishment for doing something society disagrees with or as blood sport for entertainment but what are you talking about?
- irrational 5y agoRitual human sacrifice did occur in places other than the Americas. https://www.asor.org/anetoday/2020/02/human-sacrifice https://www.asor.org/anetoday/2020/02/human-sacrifice
- nonameiguess 5y agoOther instances are in this article. It specifically mentions ancient Canaanites doing it and being condemned for it by the Hebrews. It mentions Carthage and the Northern Ewe in Africa. Also claims South India, though whatever specific example the book cites isn't in this article and you'd need to read the book to find out what it is.
