Inca Children Were Drugged With Coca And Alcohol Before Sacrifice

Scientists from the Department of Forensic Medicine at the University of Copenhagen have examined the bodies of three 500-year-old Inca children along with scientists from Bradford University in England. This has given new, detailed knowledge about the old Inca ritual ‘capacocha’ which also involved sacrificing humans. The results were published recently in the journal PNAS. The 500-year-old Inca mummie 'The Maiden' is amazingly well preserved.
