Inca Child Sacrifice Victims Were Drugged

he mummies were in exceptional condition when found. Reinhard said that the mummies "appear to be the best preserved Inca mummies ever found", additionally saying that the arms were perfectly preserved, even down to the individual hairs. The internal organs were still intact, and one of the hearts still contained frozen blood. Because the mummies froze before dehydration could occur, the desiccation and shrivelling of the organs that is typical to exposed human remains never took place

La Doncella is the mummy of a 15 year old Incan girl. Over 500 years ago, she was offered as a sacrifice to the Incan god of sun. Scientists determined that before La Doncella was taken high up in the Andes mountains, she was given Chicha, a corn beer that made her fall into a deep sleep

Scientists have revealed that drugs and alcohol played a key part in the months and weeks leading up to the children's deaths.

Tests on one of the children, a teenage girl, suggest that she was heavily sedated just before her demise.

The mummified remains were discovered in 1999, entombed in a shrine near the summit of the 6,739m-high Llullaillaco volcano in Argentina.

Three children were buried there: a 13-year-old girl, and a younger boy and girl, thought to be about four or five years old.

Their remains date to about 500 years ago, during the time of the Inca empire, which dominated South America until the Europeans arrived at the end of the 15th Century.

"The preservation is phenomenal - they've been called the best preserved mummies in the world," explained Dr Brown.

"These three children look like they are asleep."

The international team of researchers used forensic tests to analyse the chemicals found in the children's hair.

They discovered that all three had consumed alcohol and coca leaves (from which cocaine is extracted) in the final months of their lives.

Historical records reveal that these substances were reserved for the elite and often used in Incan rituals.

Death from exposure

An analysis of the teenage

girl's hair, which was longer than the hair of the younger victims, revealed more.

The girl, known as the "Llullaillaco maiden", was probably considered more highly valued than the younger children, because of her virginal status.

Tests on her long braids revealed that her coca consumption increased sharply a year before her death.

The scientists believe this corresponds to the time she was selected for sacrifice. Earlier research also reveals that her diet changed at this point too, from a potato-based peasant diet to one rich in meat and maize.

Dr Brown explained: "From what we know of the Spanish chronicles, particularly attractive or gifted women were chosen. The Incas actually had someone who went out to find these young women and they were taken from their families."

The results also revealed that the girl ingested large amounts of alcohol in the last few weeks of her life.

It suggests she was heavily sedated before she and the other children were taken to the volcano, placed in their tombs and left to die.

"In the case of the maiden, there is no sign of violence. She is incredibly well looked after: she has a good layer of fat, she has beautifully groomed hair, beautiful clothes," said Dr Brown.

"In this case we think with the combination of being placed in the grave with the alcohol and the cold - the mountain is over 6,000m above sea level - she would have passed away quietly."

The mummies are now housed in the Museum of High Altitude Archaeology in Salta, Argentina.

The study is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Florida's Messiest Execution

Florida's Messiest Execution On July 8, 1999, the execution of Allen Lee Davis set off a shock wave that rippled around the world. During his time in the electric chair, Davis bled profusely from the nose and suffered burns to his head, leg, and groin area. As the switch was thrown, the “Tiny” Davis, who was executed for the May 11, 1982, murder of Nancy Weiler and her two daughters, reared back against the restraints, giving witnesses a chilling glimpse under a black hood designed to hide the faces of the condemned. Blood poured from his vivid purple nose, ran down the wide leather strap that covered his mouth and soaked the white shirt. After the power was turned off, Davis was still alive. Witnesses said his chest rose and fell about 10 times before he went still. After the execution, state prison officials and Governor Jeb Bush said the Old Sparky functioned properly. Three photos of the incident have been published on Florida’s High Court official website in an attempt to argu...

SAN ANTONIO — A San Antonio man has been arrested in connection with a murder case that has remained unsolved for more than four decades

SAN ANTONIO — A San Antonio man has been arrested in connection with a murder case that has remained unsolved for more than four decades. Larry Allen West has been arrested and charged with the murder of Carol Joyce Deleon, according to an arrest warrant. “We’ve been suffering for over 40 years not knowing what happened to my sister,” said Carol's sister, Sandra Deleon. “The potential of what she could have been, what she could have been will never be known. We were robbed of that, she was robbed of that.” Deleon was last seen on June 3, 1981, at a night club in San Antonio. Investigators said she had just graduated from Thomas Edison High School a few days before she died. The next day, a body was found on the grassy shoulder of Interstate 35 North near a rest area south of New Braunfels in Comal County. At the time, Texas DPS said that investigators tried to identify the body from fingerprints and missing person reports in the area but weren’t able to identify her. ...

History’s Worst Execution Methods: Flaying

History’s Worst Execution Methods: Flaying Flaying — better known as “skinning alive” — has a long and grotesque history. Records of the practice exist as far back as the Neo-Assyrian Empire (beginning in 911 B.C.), but it has cropped up in most civilizations at one time or another, including Medieval Europe (where it tended to be used as a punishment for traitors) and in the ritual human sacrifices made by the Aztecs in Mexico (the Aztecs, at least, are believed to have skinned the body after the sacrifice had been made). Various techniques have been utilized in the many different cultures in which flaying has been employed, but the basis remains the same: Slowly, excruciatingly slicing the skin from the body while keeping the victim alive for as long as possible (and when feasible, removing the skin intact). Rendering Of Flaying Wikimedia Commons Carvings from the Assyrian period show the process beginning with incisions to the thighs or buttocks, while the European method — pictured...

This historic photograph was taken in Nagasaki, in September 1945, shortly after the atomic bombing of this city on August 9, 1945

This historic photograph was taken in Nagasaki, in September 1945, shortly after the atomic bombing of this city on August 9, 1945. A 10-year-old boy stands military stretched and waits his turn at the funeral bonfire to cremate his little brother who died in the bombing. A soldier from the funeral team noticed the boy was tired of standing with the burden and offered to lay the dead child on the ground. He replied, "It's not heavy. This isn't hard for me. This is my brother.'' The author of the shot Joe O’Donnell wrote in his memoir, “I saw a boy walking for about ten years. He carried a child on his back. Those days in Japan, we often saw children playing with their younger siblings by sitting them on their backs, but this boy was clearly different. I thought he was here for some good reason. He had no shoes on. His face was all hard. The child's head was spinning from side to side as if he were sleeping. The boy just stood there for five or ten minutes. Peop...

Prisoner Joe Arridy, who had an IQ of 46, gives his toy train to another prisoner before he is executed for a terrible crime he did not commit, 1939

Prisoner Joe Arridy, who had an IQ of 46, gives his toy train to another prisoner before he is executed for a terrible crime he did not commit, 1939 Joe Arridy was a man who lived in Pueblo, Colorado and his parents were Syrian. While growing up, Joe displayed signs that he was severely intellectually disabled. He began to talk a lot later than the average toddler and he could not form long sentences, instead he spoke a few words at a time. In psychology, this can be a sign that cognitive capabilites in a child are low, which means problem solving, counting, understanding basic concepts and knowing right from wrong will often be very challenging for that individual. Joe attended one year of elementary school before being pulled out as it was too difficult for him. Joe's father then admitted him to the State Home. Joe lived here on and off for a few years. It was also reported that Joe was mistreated and often beaten by the local neighbourhood kids. Joe, at the age of 21, left Puebl...

The photos and the story of Mount Everest’s most famous dead body

Rescuing live climbers from the Death Zone on Mount Everest is risky enough, and removing their bodies is almost impossible. Many unfortunate mountaineers remain exactly where they fell, frozen in time forever to serve as macabre milestones for the living. One body that every climber en route to the summit must pass is that of “Green Boots,” who was one of the eight people killed on the mountain during a blizzard in 1996. The corpse, which received its name because of the neon green hiking boots it wears, lies curled up in a limestone cave on Mount Everest’s Northeast ridge route. Everyone who passes through is forced to step over his legs in a forceful reminder that the path is still treacherous, despite their proximity to the summit.⠀ See the photos and discover the story of Mount Everest’s most famous dead body by clicking the link in our bio.⠀

John Scopes arrested for teaching evolution, May 5, 1925

John Scopes arrested for teaching evolution, May 5, 1925 History Science teacher John Scopes is prosecuted for teaching the theory of evolution at a Tennessee public school, 1925 The Scopes Trial, also known as the Scopes Monkey Trial, was the 1925 prosecution of science teacher John Scopes for teaching evolution in a Tennessee public school, which a recent bill had made illegal. The trial featured two of the best-known orators of the era, William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow, as opposing attorneys. The trial was viewed as an opportunity to challenge the constitutionality of the bill, to publicly advocate for the legitimacy of Darwin’s theory of evolution, and to enhance the profile of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The Scopes trial, formally The State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes, and commonly referred to as the Scopes Monkey Trial, was an American legal case from July 10 to July 21, 1925, in which a high school teacher, John T. Scopes, was accused of violating...

The Execution of George Plantagenet: Drowned in a Barrel of Malmsey Wine?

The Execution of George Plantagenet: Drowned in a Barrel of Malmsey Wine? Legend has it that George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence, traitorous brother of Edward IV (and Richard III) was executed by immersion in a barrel of wine per his request! What a way to go! On February 18, 1478, George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence, was executed. According to some legends he was drowned in a barrel of malmsey wine. However, some historians believe he made never have actually been officially executed since it was done in private. Could Edward IV have decided not to end his brother’s life and chose to let him rot in jail and then bury him? When the body of the son of York was found, his head was definitely connected to his body, making it clear that he never suffered a traitor’s death. Why George, Duke of Clarence was Executed George had been pushing his luck for some time. In 1469 he switched sides and joined Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, in the attempt to put Henry VI back on the throne. The ar...

IN 1998 ,SONY ACCIDENTALLY SOLD 700,000 CAMCORDERS THAT COULD SEE THROUGH PEOPLE’S CLOTHES

In 1998, Sony accidentally sold 700,000 camcorders that had the technology to see through people’s clothes Yes You heard it right,in year 1998 sony sold 700,00 camcorder that had technology to see through your clothes,well what was that? lets check out.. The cameras had special lenses that use infrared light (IR) to see through some types of clothing,such as on dark colored, thin clothing – like swimsuits. The main factor is how well the fabric absorbs IR light waves. It’s not for regular digicams, but rather for camcorders with a IR night vision mode, and the resolution is low. Sony recalled the camcorders when they found out about this, but the night vision camcorders that they subsequently released,some people figured out how to modify the camera to get the see-through-clothing functionality and hundreds of the modified cameras are for sale on the Internet. The camera with all the filters sells for about $700 brand new, and is easy to obtain.Sony said it has no responsibility f...

A cop trying to pin down a striker during the RCA Victor (Consumer electronics company) strike at Camden, New Jersey, USA, 2 July 1936.

A cop trying to pin down a striker during the RCA Victor (Consumer electronics company) strike at Camden, New Jersey, USA, 2 July 1936. Was unable to find a historical retelling of events but by looking at some articles from the time I was able to piece some things together from Time and the New York Post. It appears the main demands by the strikers was an abolition of RCA's company union (a worker organization which is dominated or unduly influenced by an employer, and is therefore not an independent trade union), and a 20% wage increase. Things started off peacefully with the strikers picketing the plant and the strikers and the RCA trying to drown out each other's music that was being played on loudspeaker. RCA then started to employ strikebreakers (scabs) and then things appeared to have escalated from there. With strikers accused of “jabbing girl employees with pins” and hurling eggs filled with paint and the scabs were accused of throwing red pepper, hot metal and “light ...
