Chilling Sound of the Aztec Death Whistle: Listen and Learn | Ancient Architects
Показать описание
Seven years ago a video went viral on the internet of a man blowing into an instrument known as the Aztec Death Whistle, a skull-shaped object that sounds just as terrifying as it looks.
The Death Whistle really came to the world’s attention back in the 1990s, after a 500-year-old skeleton was discovered close to an Aztec Temple in Mexico City. It was a beheaded male who died in his 20s, thought to be a victim of human sacrifice, and his hands were found clutching two small whistles, one of which was in the shape of a skull.
As many of us would probably do, a researcher blew into the skull shaped instrument and heard a horrifying sound described as a ‘shriek of death.’ The whistle gives a terrifying high-pitched sound, similar to a human scream and at the end of this short video I play the sound for you all to hear.
Nobody really knows what they were used for, but some speculate they were used to scare enemies in warfare. But there is another body of thought that they were actually used in rituals to induce trances, to heal rather than terrify.
The fact that a whistle was found in the hand of a sacrificed individual seems to imply that they were involved in this ancient practice. This also seems likely because of the fact that a human skull is often carved onto the whistles – that they were instruments used in death rituals, maybe blown by the sacrificial victim moments before they met their end.
