Belief in the spiritual power of killing other humans, and then using their bodies or parts of their bodies for magical purposes is something that appears to have been widespread across many cultures, and still exists in the modern world, sometimes even in the most modern of societies. Whether the victim is hanged or otherwise despatched (with for instance, fire) as a sacrificial offering to some higher power, or they are killed to be eaten (the consumers thereof believing they will inherit the victim's life force), or they are killed for some part of their bodies believed to be especially potent for some other purpose, this belief is found throughout even our own white history - when Charles I was executed by beheading in the 17th century in England, handkerchiefs soaked in his blood were much sought after relics. Before that there was the widespread cult of more solid remains of Saints and others (bones etc) that were believed to carry power. And since there have been still more examples, wherever white culture has settled, even into the 20th century. E
