Patient has started screaming in what seems to be some form of language, none that I have ever heard of. From the sounds of it, it has to be ancient. I attached my last bit of research below, tomorrow I am going to try to find something to record him with and figure of what it is he is exactly saying.

While there is universal agreement that some Aztec people practiced human sacrifice, there is a lack of scholarly consensus as to whether cannibalism was widespread. It has been suggested that the flesh of the victims was a part of an aristocratic diet as a reward, since the Aztec diet was lacking in proteins. While most historians believe that there was ritual cannibalism related to human sacrifices, they do not support the thesis that human flesh was ever a significant portion of the Aztec diet.


Human sacrifice was the most striking feature of Aztec civilization. The Aztecs, if their own accounts are to be believed, brought this practice to an unprecedented level. For example, for the reconsecration of Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan in 1487, the Aztecs reported that they sacrificed 84,400 prisoners over the course of four days, reportedly by Ahuitzotl, the Great Speaker himself.


This is remarkable.. how could so many people die in one day, all in a name of their god! They must of had a tremendous reason to fear them. What unsettles me is, that they had many gods. Could there of been a god or demon that they worshiped for cannibalism or blood?
