tions are by now considered uncertain and possibly wrong 22 children were not necessarily actively killed but neglect and intentional malnourishment may also have occurred as proposed by vicente lull as an explanation for an apparent surplus of men and the below average height of women in prehistoric menorca 23 in ancient history edit in the new world edit main article child sacrifice in pre columbian cultures skeletal remains of children from a ritual sacrifice discovered at tlatelolco exhibited at the national museum of anthropology in mexico city archaeologists have uncovered physical evidence of child sacrifice at several locations 20 16 22 some of the best attested examples are the diverse rites which were part of the religious practices in mesoamerica and the inca empire 24 25 26 in the old world edit three thousand bones of young children with evidence of sacrificial rituals have been found in sardinia pelasgians offered a sacrifice of every tenth child during difficult times many remains of children have been found in gezer excavations with signs of sacrifice child skeletons with the marks of sacrifice have been found also in egypt dating 950 720 bce 27 child sacrifice was particularly widespread in ancient carthage 20 324 besides the carthaginians other phoenicians and the canaanites moabites and sepharvites offered their first born as a sacrifice to their gods ancient egypt edit in egyptian households at all social levels children of both sexes were valued and there is no evidence of infanticide 28 the religion of the ancient egyptians forbade infanticide and during the greco roman period they rescued abandoned babies from manure heaps a common method of infanticide by greeks or romans and were allowed to either adopt them as foundling or raise them as slaves often giving them names such as copro to memorialize their rescue 29 strabo considered it a peculiarity of the egyptians that every child must be reared 30 diodorus indicates infanticide was a punishable offence 31 egypt was heavily dependent on the annual flooding of the nile to irrigate the land and in years of low inundation severe famine could occur with breakdowns in social order resulting notably between 930 1070 ce and 1180 1350 ce instances of cannibalism are recorded during these periods but it is unknown if this happened during the pharaonic era of ancient egypt 32 beatrix midant reynes describes human sacrifice as having occurred at abydos in the early dynastic period c 3150 2850 bce 33 while jan assmann asserts there is no clear evidence of human sacrifice ever happening in ancient egypt 34 carthage edit main article carthaginian religion child sacrifice question according to shelby brown carthaginians descendants of the phoenicians sacrificed infants to their gods 35 charred bones of hundreds of infants have been found in carthaginian archaeological sites one such area harbored as many as 20 000 burial urns 35 skeptics suggest that the bodies of children found in carthaginian and phoenician cemeteries were merely the cremated remains of children who died naturally 36 plutarch c 46 120 ce mentions the practice as do tertullian orosius diodorus siculus and philo the hebrew bible also mentions what appears to be child sacrifice practiced at a place called the tophet from the hebrew taph or toph to burn by the canaanites writing in the 3rd century bce kleitarchos one of the historians of alexander the great described that the infants rolled into the flaming pit diodorus siculus wrote that babies were roasted to death inside the burning pit of the god baal hamon a bronze statue 37 38 greece and rome edit medea killing her sons by eugène ferdinand victor delacroix 1862 the historical greeks considered the practice of adult and child sacrifice barbarous 39 however infant exposure was widely practiced in ancient greece 40 41 42 it was advocated by aristotle in the case of congenital deformity as to the exposure of children let there be a law that no deformed child shall live 43 44 in greece the decision to expose a child was typically the father s although in sparta the decision was made by a group of elders 45 exposure was the preferred method of disposal as that act in itself was not considered to be murder moreover the exposed child technically had a chance of being rescued by the gods or any passersby 46 this very situation was a recurring motif in greek mythology the practice was prevalent in ancient rome as well philo was the first known philosopher to speak out against it 47 48 a letter from a roman citizen to his sister or a pregnant wife from her husband 49 dating from 1 bce demonstrates the casual nature with which infanticide was often viewed i am still in alexandria i beg and plead with you to take care of our little child and as soon as we receive wages i will send them to you in the meantime if good fortune to you you give birth if it is a boy let it live if it is a girl expose it 50 51 52 massacre of the innocents by julius schnorr von karolsfeld 1860 in some periods of roman history it was traditional for a newborn to be brought to the pater familias the family patriarch who would then decide whether the child was to be kept and raised or left to die by exposure 53 the twelve tables of roman law obliged him to put to death a child that was visibly deformed the concurrent practices of slavery and infanticide contributed to the background noise of the crises during the republic 53 infanticide became a capital offense in roman law in 374 but offenders were rarely if ever prosecuted 54 according to mythology romulus and remus twin infant sons of the war god mars survived near infanticide after being tossed into the tiber river according to the myth they were raised by wolves and later founded the city of rome middle ages edit whereas theologians and clerics preached sparing their lives newborn abandonment continued as registered in both the literature record and in legal documents 14 16 according to william lecky exposure in the early middle ages as distinct from other forms of infanticide was practiced on a gigantic scale with absolute impunity noticed by writers with most frigid indifference and at least in the case of destitute parents considered a very venial offence 55 355 56 however the first foundling house in europe was established in milan in 787 on account of the high number of infanticides and out of wedlock births the hospital of the holy spirit in rome was founded by pope innocent iii because women were throwing their infants into the tiber river 56 unlike other european regions in the middle ages the german mother had the right to expose the newborn 57 generally unwanted children were often abandoned in the high middle ages usually by leaving them at the door of a church or abbey if the baby was found in time the clergy would take care of their upbringing which gave rise to the first orphanages however very high sex ratios were common in even late medieval europe which may indicate sex selective infanticide 58 the waldensians a pre reformation medieval christian sect deemed heretical by the catholic church were accused of participating in infanticide 59 judaism edit in this depiction of the binding of isaac by julius schnorr von karolsfeld 1860 abraham is shown not sacrificing isaac judaism prohibits infanticide and has for some time dating back to at least the early common era roman historians wrote about the ideas and customs of other peoples which often diverged from their own tacitus recorded that the jews take thought to increase their numbers for they regard it as a crime to kill any late born children 60 josephus whose works give an important insight into 1st century judaism wrote that god forbids women to cause abortion of what is begotten or to destroy it afterward 61 pagan european tribes edit in his book germania tacitus wrote in 98 ce that the ancient germanic tribes enforced a similar prohibition he found such mores remarkable and commented to restrain generation and the increase of children is esteemed by the germans an abominable sin as also to kill infants newly born 62 it has become clear over the millennia though that tacitus description was inaccurate the consensus of modern scholarship significantly differs john boswell believed that in ancient germanic tribes unwanted children were exposed usually in the forest 63 218 it was the custom of the teutonic pagans that if they wanted to kill a son or daughter they would be killed before they had been given any food 63 211 usually children born out of wedlock were disposed of that way in his highly influential pre historic times john lubbock described burnt bones indicating the practice of child sacrifice in pagan britain 64 christianity edit christianity explicitly rejects infanticide the teachings of the apostles or didache states thou shalt not kill a child by abortion neither shalt thou slay it when born 65 the epistle of barnabas makes a similar statement 66 early christian writers such as tertullian athenagoras minucius felix justin martyr and lactantius also maintained that exposing a baby to death was a wicked act 13 in 318 constantine i considered infanticide a crime and in 374 valentinian i mandated the rearing of all children exposing babies especially girls was still common the council of constantinople declared that infanticide was homicide and in 589 the third council of toledo took measures against the custom of killing their own children 54 christianity thus played a leading role in the abolition of infanticide in the roman empire 67 arabia edit some muslim sources allege that pre islamic arabian society practiced infanticide as a form of post partum birth control 68 the word waʾd was used to describe the practice 69 these sources state that infanticide was practiced either out of destitution thus practiced on males and females alike or as disappointment and fear of social disgrace felt by a father upon the birth of a daughter 68 some authors believe that there is little evidence that infanticide was prevalent in pre islamic arabia or early muslim history except for the case of the tamim tribe who practiced it during severe famine according to islamic sources 70 8 others state that female infanticide was common all over arabia during this period of time pre islamic arabia especially by burying alive a female newborn 20 59 71 a tablet discovered in yemen forbidding the people of a certain town from engaging in the practice is the only written reference to infanticide within the peninsula in pre islamic times 72 islam edit infanticide is explicitly prohibited by the qur an 73 and do not kill your children for fear of poverty we give them sustenance and yourselves too surely to kill them is a great wrong 74 together with polytheism and homicide infanticide is regarded as a grave sin see 6 151 and 60 12 68 infanticide is also implicitly denounced in the story of pharaoh s slaughter of the male children of israelites see 2 49 7 127 7 141 14 6 28 4 40 25 68 ukraine and russia edit femme russe abandonnant ses enfants à des loups russian woman abandoning her children to the wolves charles michel geoffroy fr 1845 infanticide may have been practiced as human sacrifice as part of the pagan cult of perun ibn fadlan describes sacrificial practices at the time of his trip to kiev rus present day ukraine in 921 922 and describes an incident of a woman voluntarily sacrificing her life as part of a funeral rite for a prominent leader but makes no mention of infanticide the primary chronicle one of the most important literary sources before the 12th century indicates that human sacrifice to idols may have been introduced by vladimir the great in 980 the same vladimir the great formally converted kiev rus into christianity just 8 years later but pagan cults continued to be practiced clandestinely in remote areas as late as the 13th century american explorer george kennan noted that among the koryaks a people of north eastern siberia infanticide was still common in the nineteenth century one of a pair of twins was always sacrificed 75 great britain edit infanticide as a crime gained both popular and bureaucratic significance in victorian britain by the mid 19th century in the context of criminal lunacy and the insanity defence killing one s own child ren attracted ferocious debate as the role of women in society was defined by motherhood and it was thought that any woman who murdered her own child was by definition insane and could not be held responsible for her actions several cases were subsequently highlighted during the royal commission on capital punishment 1864 66 as a particular felony where an effective avoidance of the death penalty had informally begun baby killer amelia dyer pictured upon entry to wells asylum in 1893 her trial led to stricter laws for adoption and raised the profile of the fledgling national society for the prevention of cruelty to children nspcc which formed in 1884 76 the poor law amendment act 1834 ended parish relief for unmarried mothers and allowed fathers of illegitimate children to avoid paying for child support 77 unmarried mothers then received little assistance and the poor were left with the option of either entering the workhouse turning to prostitution resorting to infanticide or choosing abortion by the middle of the century infanticide was common for social reasons such as illegitimacy and the introduction of child life insurance additionally encouraged some women to kill their children for gain examples include mary ann cotton who murdered many of her 15 children as well as three husbands margaret waters the brixton baby farmer a professional baby farmer who was found guilty of infanticide in 1870 jessie king who was hanged in 1889 amelia dyer the angel maker who murdered over 400 babies in her care and ada chard williams a baby farmer who was later hanged at newgate prison the times reported that 67 infants were murdered in london in 1861 and 150 more recorded as found dead many of which were found on the streets another 250 were suffocated half of them not recorded as accidental deaths the report noted that infancy in london has to creep into life in the midst of foes 78 recording a birth as a still birth was also another way of concealing infanticide because still births did not need to be registered until 1926 and they did not need to be buried in public cemeteries 79 in 1895 the sun london published the article massacre of the innocents highlighting the dangers of baby farming the recording of stillbirths and quoting athelstan braxton hicks the london coroner on lying in houses i have not the slightest doubt that a large amount of crime is covered by the expression still birth there are a large number of cases of what are called newly born children which are found all over england more especially in london and large towns abandoned in streets rivers on commons and so on a great deal of that crime is due t...
