Aztecs butchered, ate Spanish invaders
CALPULALPAN, Mexico (Reuters) -- Skeletons found at an unearthed site in Mexico show Aztecs captured, ritually sacrificed and partially ate several hundred people traveling with invading Spanish forces in 1520.
Skulls and bones from the Tecuaque archeological site near Mexico City show about 550 victims had their hearts ripped out by Aztec priests in ritual offerings, and were dismembered or had their bones boiled or scraped clean, experts say.
The findings support accounts of Aztecs capturing and killing a caravan of Spanish conquistadors and local men, women and children traveling with them in revenge for the murder of Cacamatzin, king of the Aztec empire's No. 2 city of Texcoco.
Experts say the discovery proves some Aztecs did resist the conquistadors led by explorer Hernan Cortes, even though history books say most welcomed the white-skinned horsemen in the belief they were returning Aztec gods.
"This is the first place that has so much evidence there was resistance to the conquest," said archeologist Enrique Martinez, director of the dig at Calpulalpan in Tlaxcala state, near Texcoco.
"It shows it wasn't all submission. There was a fight."
The caravan was apparently captured because it was made up mostly of the mulatto, mestizo, Maya Indian and Caribbean men and women given to the Spanish as carriers and cooks when they landed in Mexico in 1519, and so was moving slowly.
The prisoners were kept in cages for months while Aztec priests from what is now Mexico City selected a few each day at dawn, held them down on a sacrificial slab, cut out their hearts and offered them up to various Aztec gods.
Some may have been given hallucinogenic mushrooms or pulque -- an alcoholic milky drink made from fermented cactus juice -- to numb them to what was about to happen.
Teeth marks
"It was a continuous sacrifice over six months. While the prisoners were listening to their companions being sacrificed, the next ones were being selected," Martinez said, standing in his lab amid boxes of bones, some of young children.
"You can only imagine what it was like for the last ones, who were left six months before being chosen, their anguish."
The priests and town elders, who performed the rituals on the steps of temples cut off by a perimeter wall, sometimes ate their victims' raw and bloody hearts or cooked flesh from their arms and legs once it dropped off the boiling bones.
Knife cuts and even teeth marks on the bones show which ones had meat stripped off to be eaten, Martinez said.
Some pregnant women in the group had their unborn babies stabbed inside their bellies as part of the ritual.
In Aztec times the site was called Zultepec, a town of white-stucco temples and homes where some 5,000 people grew maize and beans and produced pulque to sell to traders.
Priests had to be brought in for the ritual killings because human sacrifices had never before taken place there, Martinez said.
On hearing of the months-long massacre, Cortes renamed the town Tecuaque -- meaning "where people were eaten" in the indigenous Nahuatl language -- and sent an army to wipe out its people.
When they heard the Spanish were coming, the Zultepec Aztecs threw their victims' possessions down wells, unwittingly preserving buttons and jewelry for the archeologists.
The team, which began work here in 1990, also found remains of domestic animals brought from Spain, like goats and pigs.
"They hid all the evidence," said Martinez. "Thanks to that act, we have been allowed to discover a chapter we were unaware of in the conquest of Mexico."

This has been known of for a long time , this is just one small example, confirming the previous incidents .
Did you know that this also happened in the four corners region ?
Massive piles of bones that show butcher marks and other signs of human consumption .

Great article. Saw a few words about this on the ticker this morning, figured it would be interesting. This is far more detailed than I expected from CNN.
Wasn't that long ago, a few years, when you would not see something like this from the mainstream media. Its not just that CNN reported it, but look at the detail they went into. Teethmarks on bones. Prisoners waiting for months to be sacrificed, while hearing and seeing the others murdered. Hearts being cut out. Fetuses murdered in the womb. Flesh boiled off the bone.
All very dramatic. Not saying it's untrue. Doesn't surprise me at all. I think the average VNN reader is well aware that Mexicans(aztecs) are and were savages. Catholicism and some aryan admixture have tamed them a bit, but as a group they are not significantly different from their ancestors, especially in relation to us. They are still quite dangerous.
They're dangerous to jews, too, now. I think the article is even more interesting when you step back and look at the big picture. William Pierce was wise and pointed out the jew's changing tactics, back in 2002. http://www.natall.com/free-speech/fs0201a.html The Steinlight paper referenced there was probably the best of many examples popping up at the time. The kikes are applying the brakes.
I've read that a heart will keep beating if quickly and properly removed. The Aztec savages must have gotten quite a thrill at holding a still-beating human heart to the sky. In their simple minds they must have thought that they were quite literally holding a "soul" in hand. It disgusts and frightens us, but i bet it was an incredibly exhilarating experience for them. Maybe even physically addictive. The ultimate victory over an enemy.
Of course it's a good thing that more people are made aware of the Aztec nature. I just hope that the average white will also be made aware of what is really happening here. The mexican immigration problem is so severe that even the jews are suffering from it, and you see this reflected in the mass-media and it's recent attitude changes.
If we keep this in mind, we may eventually be able to use the momentum of their propaganda against them. There will probably come a point where the aztecs in the former USA are at the brink of openly warring against the zog. We may be able to push them over with little effort, by just enhancing the media noise. Like in martial arts, use their motion against them.
The top of the article gave me a chuckle. Writer is trying to give throw the mexicans a bone with that "resistance" theme.

...clearly vindicates the Spaniards' decision to obliterate most of the Aztec niggz.......a vile little tribe!
(some-what khyboshed by their un-fortunate caflick dogma which meant that there was an un-necessarily large amount of race-mixing)
the same would have been more or less true re: the Nrth Amrcn 'Amerinids'
what a tragedy!
the Aztec civilisation had some advanced features...not due to these cannibalistic niggz(how else would you expect non-whites with less than 50% white genes to behave any-way?) of course but because of the original white founders of that civilisation (various Aztec frescoes apparently indicate that these niggz consumed their creators too!)
these are the type of sub-humanoid 'morlocks' that the yoos have un-leashed on formerly safe, prosperous and decent white nations!
'poetic justice' would dictate that 'the usuals' are consumed by their own Frankinstein-ian creations!
(jimbo!)
'history' is a lie commonly agreed upon....(Voltaire).....the "modern world" is a jewish disease!....

But by all means,portray the Spanish as The Villains,and the Ass-tecs as the (ig)noble savages,rightfully slaughtering and cannibalising the Spaniards.
