Description
For 20 days, Aztec priests wore the rotting skin of human sacrifices - but the truth is even more disturbing than the myth.
During Tlacaxipehualiztli, "the flaying of men," priests would wear the flayed skin of sacrificed warriors for 20 straight days as it decomposed on their bodies. For 500 years, we've been told they wore children's skins - but 2019 archaeological discoveries prove this was a lie. The reality was somehow even more horrifying.
