George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead is considered a progenitor of the fictional zombie of modern culture
Cannibal eating zombies are every where it seems. Not only on the Hollywood screen but in real life. The horrific attack of a Florida homeless man was one story that just stands out in my mind. The black man who tried to literally “eat his face off” had to be shot dead to stop him and to this day, no one can really explain what happened.
In the old “B” movie thrillers, the idea of cannibals was subtlely portrayed in the movies as an old witch who might be cooking humans parts in a pot or in the movie Conan and the Barbarians, a large stew of humans is being cooked. It is also portrayed symbolically through the vampire character and the zombie character. How much truth to these ancient stereotypes is there?
The fact is that there is a lot of truth to it. From ancient scholars, we know that there was a big problem with cannibalism during the time of Zeus and before. It is one of the reasons they went to the islands of Tyre and Crete to escape the attacks by fellow cannibal humans.
From Diodorus Siculus:
Osiris was the first, they record, to make mankind give up cannibalism; for after Isis did discover the fruit of both wheat and barley which grew wild over the land along with the other plants but was still unknown to man, and Osiris had also devised the cultivation of these fruits, all men were glad to change their food, both because of the pleasing nature of the newly-discovered grains and because it seemed to their advantage to refrain from their butchery of one another.
For those following my work, they know I have uncovered this ancient history extensively and have shown that the murder and cannibalism of toddler Zagreus was one of the main reasons behind the mission to civilize the world by the Cronides. So for those who hate them and scream “Saturn Worship”, you must know they were not perfect, their descendants hid their bloodline, the priests lied about god, but it was this family that ended the common practice of cannibalism by globally travelling to teach humans farming techniques. There is still one place on the Earth that they missed:
I have tried to present my theory and research to mainstream news outlets including magazines, radio shows, and television shows. I have offered to write an article for archaeology magazines. No one will touch my work. What are you afraid of? Let me present my work so the world can know the truth. You can’t keep the people in darkness much longer so you can control the populace. I will find a way to let the masses know about my research and you will not steal this from me and twist it.
