Why isn't ancient Greece's historic legacy completely sullied by their human sacrifices?
>>16808996it’s ok when greeks and romans do it
>>16808996What evidence is there that the Greeks engaged in human sacrifice?
>>16808996Because it might be something they never did and instead adopted into their myths from neighboring cultures who practiced it. There is no archeological evidence of it, unlike in Carthage.
>>16809011literary and archeological records
>>16809049Would you like to share some of them with us?
Everyone at some point in their history engaged in human sacrifice, and Greeks had a couple myths (Iphigenia, Tantalus) whose message was "human sacrifice bad"
>>16809011Mycenean Kydonia on Crete had a human sacrifice. Also, the mythology, there's plenty of examples.
>>16809047That's not true. In Mycenean Kydonia there is evidence of human sacrifice. Minoans also show evidence of human sacrifice.
Human sacrifice is based and very Aryan.
>>16809624Based on what exactly?>>16809629Not really. Whenever it's spoken about it's usually in a negative light.
>>16809636> Not really. Whenever it's spoken about it's usually in a negative lightIt is still very based and Aryan.
>>16809617>>16809624>Mycenean KydoniaSo, Minoan and not Greek.
>>16809716Are you stupid? MYCENEAN Kydonia, which means that the palatial centers were controlled by Mycenean Greeks, the leaders and overseers were Mycenean Greeks, the garrisons were probably a mix of Mycenean and eteocretan. Why are you playing PR like this for ancient Greeks? I'm a philhellene, but so the fuck what if an ancient people did some human sacrifice when things were dire?
>>16809636Based on them finding a sacrifice of an insane amount of animals and one girl burnt among them in the middle. It was ritualistic on nature, and evidence points to desperate/bad times. I read it myself at the archaeological museum of Chania in Greece.
