Ten years ago, officials in Chiapas were alerted to 150 or so skulls in a cave near the border with Guatemala. Police started investigating, believing migrants had been killed in gang violence near the border. Then, the National Institute of Anthropology and History got involved. Last week, it was announced that the skulls are likely remains of sacrificial killings performed between A.D. 900 and 1200, when they were common practice. The bones would have been part of a tzompantli, an altar for worshiping gods that would look like a modern-day trophy rack.
