The role of human sacrifices in the major civilizations of Meso and South America was mainly <u>RELIGIOUS</u>.

The person that was killed, was given as a present to please some God or spirit. Human sacrifice was common within the Incan and Aztec culture for example.

The <em>Inca</em> also practiced child sacrifice, and some of their mummies have been found at the top of mountains and volcanos.

The <em>Maya</em> practiced human sacrifices only on special occasions and generally at their temple.

wich was not a reason johnson used when vetoing the extension of the freedmens bureau and civil rights bill of 1866
Mkey [24]

Another reason was that he believed that such beneficial extension would not make people equal, but rather it would be racist towards the white people. His main argument, however, was that the bill would have a certain group gain rights that they are not entitled to, while a large part of the states does not even have representation in the congress, and that the congress needs to be enlarged first.
