Any anthropologists on the list?
I'm a bit skeptical about this? We could be seeing a very isolated incident or
something else (such as the remains of a post-mortem on an amputated limb - the
split leg bone - then thrown onto a midden).
I can document very isolated cases of cannibalism in Colorado in the 19th
century, but I wont accuse all my US cousins of pining for a bit of 'long
pork'.
There has to be another reason, I feel that someone's jumping to a conclusion
somewhere...
Cheers,
Drake (yes, from Britain and is taking offence at Cannibalistic ancestors...)
ps. Why can't I get The Cannibalistic Undertaker's sketch from Monty Python's
Flying Circus outta my head?
pps. Why is Cannibalism illegal (is it the murder part, the CJD/other disease
risk or what). If I die (healthy and disease free) and in my will I pledge my
body to others for culinary delights would that be legal? Sorry if I'm
grossing people out...
