THou I wouldn't eat this mass of fat unless I was starving for month lol. Also natives of NA abounded cannibalism long before Columbus arrival to the New World. Im not trying to accuse you in historical inaccuracy. Im just a history geek. Still awesome art.

We would have no mcdonalds, kfc, colas and many other stuff. Still I think it would be better if history turned out that way.

He doesn't look enough like an Aztec, though--they killed and ate tens of thousands.

While the Aztecs did practice human sacrifice, they were not known to practice cannibalism.

"When the Aztecs sacrificed people to Huitzilopochtli (the god with warlike aspects) the victim would be placed on a sacrificial stone.[23] The priest would then cut through the abdomen with an obsidian or flint blade.[24] The heart would be torn out still beating and held towards the sky in honor to the Sun-God; the body would be carried away and either cremated or given to the warrior responsible for the capture of the victim. He would either cut the body in pieces and send them to important people as an offering , or use the pieces for ritual cannibalism . The warrior would thus ascend one step in the hierarchy of the Aztec social classes, a system that rewarded successful warriors.[25]
Just politely explaining that I've heard differently.

Oh, I thought you were talking about cannibalism in the sense that human flesh was a regular part of the Aztec diet. Yes. I've heard about the ritual cannibalism. My fault for assuming. I'd liken it to the Maori practice of cannibalism as more of a spiritual and ritualistic act rather than a staple of the diet. 🙂
