Inca Children Were Drugged With Coca And Alcohol Before Sacrifice

One of the examined mummies is the 13-year-old girl, ’The Llullaillaco Maiden’, named after the 6,379 meters tall volcanic mountain, Llullaillaco, where she was found frozen close to the mountain’s top. The two other bodies are a boy and a girl around 4 or 5 years old found in separate graves near The Maiden. The mummified bodies are all remarkably well-preserved and have been frozen for nearly 500 years near the top of the mountain, which is found on the border between Chile and Argentina.
Professor Niels Lynnerup from the Department of Forensic Medicine and PhD student Chiara Villa have analysed CT-scans of three Inca children. On the picture you can see the girl called ‘The Maiden’.

“Now we know more precisely what happened in an Inca sacrifice, for example to what extent coca and alcohol were used as part of the Inca ritual in the months and weeks preceding a sacrifice. It is very satisfactory that we with our scientific methods can help uncover the unique circumstances regarding a number of very central aspects of ancient Inca culture,” says Professor Niels Lynnerup from The Department of Forensic Medicine, who, along with PhD student Chiara Villa, has analysed a number of CT scans of the mummies.
New light on Inca child sacrifice
What we have known so far about the religious capacocha ritual from the Inca Empire, was derived from written sources from the Spanish colonial power in South America. The new analyses of the frozen bodies give new knowledge about the practice of the rituals, for example the child sacrifices.
The scientists’ analyses show that the three mummified children had all ingested both coca and alcohol prior to their death. The girl, ‘The Maiden’, was even found with chewed coca leaves in her mouth, and the analyses show that her consumption of coca increased sharply twelve months before her death, and then peaked six months later. The analyses also show that her alcohol consumption peaked during the last few weeks before her death.
“We made CT analyses and have produced three-dimensional visualisations of the mummified girl’s organs and the contents of her mouth cavity. From that we could establish her age relatively precisely just as the coca leaf stuck between her teeth and in her cheek also could be identified. Finally, because of the amazing preservation we could also determine the contents of the intestines, and thereby establish a reasonable time of her final meal,” explains Niels Lynnerup.
The other examinations show a significant consumption of cocaine from coca leaves and alcohol in the time leading to the sacrifice. Compared to analyses of her hair this creates a good picture of her life in the two years before her death.
“We can see that the ritual sacrifice has been prepared for a long time and that sustained consumption of drugs apparently was a part of the preparations prior to the sacrifice itself,” says Niels Lynnerup.
CT scans performed at The Department of Forensic Medicine show that the 13-year-old girl, dubbed ’The Llullaillaco Maiden’, died with a clot of coca leaves in her mouth cavity.

Ritual use of cocaine and alcohol
Dr. Andrew Wilson is an associate professor at the Department for Forensic and Archaeological Sciences at University of Bradford. He compares in value the new research results with the historic accounts from the Spanish colonial time.
The scientists can with some certainty say that ‘The Maiden’ was selected as sacrifice twelve months before her death. Also, she was most likely implicated in a number of rituals involving use of coca and alcohol, and both drugs were given to her under supervision for some time.
There was apparently no indication of physical violence against the children, but coca and alcohol have most likely precipitated their death, which was inevitable in the altitudes where they were found.
The circumstances during her final few weeks with ‘The Maiden’ showing consistently increased levels of coca and alcohol consumption compared the younger children show that there must have been a need to sedate her in the last weeks of her life.
This conclusion is verified by the position in which ‘The Maiden’ was found. Hun was found sitting cross-legged with her head sloping forward and her arms resting loosely on her lap. Her head piece was intact and the objects surrounding her were undisturbed. This leads the scientists to believe that she was placed in the tomb, heavily influenced by drugs.

Poor things. Poor, poor things.
At least they do not do like Muslims did, or like our own Western Satanists do. They like the maxiumum suffering and pain.
Many Westerners are drugged as we pay tribute to the gods of Wall St. We are in such pain and dehumanized in so many ways you know we bow to the false gods of monetarism. Pope Francis has recently pinpointed this economic injustice as the most important need for change ahead of homosexuality, birth control, etc. The head of the Vatican bank resigned so I think there may be a global revolt going on. We learn lessons from studying our past mistakes.
And it will really really hurt when children are sent to schools by parents trusting the school boards and states and fed to really want the best for those children, and the children are trapped inside under their desks, when the MegaQuakes happen on New Madrid fault and Cascadian Subduction fault zone.
Those schools are not built to withstand a larger quake, they are old architecture and obsolete. The roofs will come down, crushing all the poor children under those desks. Yet, this is the current, ongoing obsolete protocol for earthquake drills. That and ‘stand next to this wall’.
They never ever teach the triangle of life, which has been proven to save many many more lives and prevent injuries.
Conclusion: Our Federal and State governments do not wish to save lives of children in those schools.
It is a plan.
Parents: Read and learn. Do not send your child/ren to a school which uses that old protocol which will be fatal to most children in a megaquake.
New Madrid zone: Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, etc.
Cascadian Subduction zone fault states: British Columbia Vancouver Island, Washington, Oregon, and Northern California
is also connected TO the SAN ANDREAS fault…. so.. this is a LOT OF CHILD SACRIFICE.
please check this re: human sacrifice, Mayan, Aztec, (Canaanite to Baal, Molech, Queen of Heaven, the Goddess of Love) and our own, modern human sacrifice because of this same God
