You don't accidentally lose an ax that keeps you alive. They did it for religious reasons they are offerings.
- Jaap Brakke
For many years the rain was pouring down and the crops failed. So first the people would start offering the gods food, and then tools and other things of value. When everything failed, the elders would decide to make the ultimate offering. There is no written history of what happened there, but what we do have is a record of human sacrifice.
