RE: Is The "Conquista" we Know True?

in #history6 years ago

I don't think they would have been too keen to be sacrificed to a God that wasn't one of theirs.

Until they were shown how the new God blacked out the sun. I can't remember which one, but one of them used a solar eclipse to fool them into following the new more powerful god.

I don't really think you would have 80,000 willing prisoners, but even if they did have them, do you think it would have been possible to sacrifice 20,000 people a day? That comes out to 833 people per hour if the priests worked 24/7, and how long does it take to kill a person in a sacrifice? I would think they would have at least some ritual for each kill. Better said I believe this is a lie, just made so Europeans would believe the same lie that has been perpetuated, that they in reality came here to enlighten the natives.
