Mass children graves found

Topic Might not be in the right place

Wonder if they were scared of global warming.

Link is a bit of a shock showing the graves of over 250 odd children.

Re: Mass children graves found

They certainly had a different ethos, but I am bemused as to why it's thought to be contributed to the weather

Taking the hearts out, was also practiced by Egyptians, for whatever reason, but a Pharaoh's heart would be replaced again as it was important for it to go with them to the next life. Saw that on TV last week.

Interesting stuff, galty.

It says in the text that it's thought they were ''sacrificed to appease gods and stop bad weather.''
