Interesting article.

I thought this had already been established, though? It has long been believed that the Lusitanians sacrificed the body parts of prisoners, such as a hand to the god of war, Cariocecus.

But also, the Lusitanians believed that by stabbing prisoners in the stomach and observing how they fell, they could make predictions about warfare. I had read not too long ago, although it may not have been intentional, that it is believed that many of these prisoners eventually died from their wounds or of infection.

I've searched on the Wikipedia, and although it confirms this, I don't remember reading this originally from there. It was another article from another website which I can't seem to find.
