The Persian Empire arguably trumped them all, however, when it created scaphism around 500 B.C.E.

This ancient execution method was also known as “the boats,” as victims were placed in two hollowed-out logs or boats before their suffering even began.

With their heads and limbs sticking out and their bodies trapped inside, the victim was force-fed milk and honey.

Now that’s a crazy fucking video.

The momentum from the framing makes it look like the leaves are pushing to get into the corner.

Reminds me of a herd blindly following the forerunners without knowing there is nothing for them at the end.

He nailed the bigger plot points but yeah, who could have seen the mind boggling scale of everything back then. Technology really amped things up.
