"Ancient Mayan Child Sacrifice

Child sacrifice was another ritual practised by the Mayans. It is believed that illegitimate or orphans were sacrificed in a temple on certain days of the year. The heart of these children was removed and the blood was collected in a bowl. The blood was then scattered within the temple."
