Europeans literally practiced cannibalism well into the 17th century, and they got the corpses from graverobbing.
i always hate how much emphasis white westerners put on the aztecs practicing human sacrifice as like, evidence of how "savage" and "wild" and "strange" they were, when it's been proven that the prehistoric ancestors of europeans were cannibals and many european societies practiced human sacrifice well into the last 1000 years esp scandinavians like you aren't actually disturbed by that you're just racist
