I read somewhere that during the siege of Paris in the Wars of Religion, c!. 1590, the famine grew so bad that they experimented with grinding human bones from the charnel-houses up into flour and they called the resulting bread 'our fathers' bread', though those who ate it died!.

I believe in it, as ancient people are cruel and uncivilised!. It's especially true during the war!. I've heard an empress named Lv in China, very jealous of a concubine beloved by the emperor, so after emperor died, she cut arms and legs of that beautiful concubine and digged up her eyes and poisoned her to dummy and finally threw her into toilet!. After that, her son was also be poisoned to death by the empress!. She let her family to hold the power and killed almost all the emperors' son, so she's very "well-known" in history!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
