The remains of dozens of child sacrifice victims have been unearthed in Peru, and many more are likely waiting to be found, archaeologists say.
The skeletons show evidence that the children’s hearts were removed, said Gabriel Prieto, an assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Florida who directs the excavations at Pampa La Cruz, the site near Huanchaco where the remains were found.
All 76 skeletons had a “transversal clean cut across the sternum,” Prieto said, which suggests that “they possibly opened up the rib cage and then they possibly extracted the heart.”

I am in a spot very like when I first got my medication and could not handle any emotions, so the only videos I watch are like, casual doll reviews and ancient hairstyle recreations - stuff that is interesting with absolutely no stakes or conflict.
I keep trying to put a movie or something on in the background but I’m so exhausted even thinking about the inevitable 3rd act emotional swell that everything looks bad the way that sometimes all the food in your house looks bad.
been really hard for me to talk about this but the NSW government is trying to kill my dad’s bees, even though they’re not infested with the varroa mite.
the government only acknowledges petitions with at least 20 000 signatures… it’s a long shot but we have three days to just *try*. please sign and share with your circles, it’s a quick thing that means so much to my family!!! thank you so much 💔🐝🚨
