Actually I think that case of the Crusaders eating the bodies of the
Moslems is well documented. It was also during a time of starvation.
Niether side in the Crusades was adverse to using starvation techniques
on their enemy when it suited their purpose. In general though, I
think the Moslems come off as the more civilized in that conflict.

My easiest to get to notes on the cannabalism are at work. Let me
see if I can find some specific details.
