Maya and Inca but Aztec could be in there too

Explanation:

The Incas performed child sacrifices during or after important events, such as the death of the Sapa Inca (emperor) or during a famine

Generally only high status prisoners of war were sacrificed, with lower status captives being used for labour. Human sacrifice among the Maya is evident from at least the Classic period (c. AD 250–900) right through to the final stages of the Spanish conquest in the 17th century.
