This week we did and learned about Aztec sacrifices.
We got to watch a video about the sacrifices and why they killed them,what for and when. After we got sheets about temples,sacrifices,after and why they did it,after we had to right it down on a piece of paper and share to our group.
I learned that fat,ugly,stupid,old and people with scars wouldn’t get sacrificed but healthy, good looking, fit, young people would get sacrificed and that they would sacrifice a person every day because they thought if they didn’t the sun wouldn’t come back up and that the god would destroyed the world.
I thought it was stupid and sad why they sacrificed young healthy people every day.

I agree Timon, I was very surprised to find out that they would sacrifice young healthy people! The Aztecs definitely had some interesting beliefs!
Phew… I reckon I am safe from Aztec sacrifice then! An interesting post Timon. Aztecs is one of my favourite topics 🙂
