Da kann man sich die Artikel dazu aussuchen.
Da war es wohl erstmal die Not und dann vielleicht schon Gewohnheit
Hier wird z.B. vom 30-jährigen Krieg gesprochen.

Aber das ist immer auch eine Sache der Datensammlung.

Wenn ich mal ne Freikarte für einen Tag Vergangenheit bekäme ... ins Neolithikum wollte ich nicht unbedingt ....

"Christen aßen Jungfrau" - Hungerkannibalismus bei den Pilgrims?
Archaeologists excavating a rubbish pit at the site of the Jamestown colony in Virginia, US, have found the first physical evidence of cannibalism among the desperate population, corroborating written accounts left behind by witnesses.

Cut marks on the skull and skeleton of a 14-year-old girl show that her flesh and brain were removed, presumably to be eaten by the starving colonists during the harsh winter of 1609 at the first permanent English settlement in the Americas.

Der Artikel stand heute in unserer Tageseitung und gestern schon auf FB
Hungerkannibalismus gab es auch in jüngerer Zeit:

oder bei dem Flugzeugabsturtz in den Anden.

Ich frage mich, was wir tun würden, in einer Extremsituation, die wir uns vllt im Moment gar nicht vorstellen können.

"The bones of at least 22 Neolithic people, many of them children, have been identified in Italy’s Scaloria Cave. The cave, located in southeastern Italy, is filled with stalactites and offers “the first well-documented case for early farmers in Europe of people trying to actively deflesh the dead,” John Robb of the University of Cambridge told Science Magazine"

Nachweise für rituellen Kannibalismus im mesolithischen Spanien?

Identifying cannibalism is a tricky business, for both cultural and scientific reasons. First, we don't want to believe our ancestors ate each other, and second, distinguishing signs of cooking and eating from other kinds of damage that bones can suffer over thousands of years buried in a cave is difficult. Morales-Pérez and his team spent several years analyzing the bones, and they identified several telltale signs that point to cannibalism. They were guided in this investigation by previous work from a paper by Bruno Bulestin of the University of Bordeaux. He lays out this technical rubric:
...
(1) Direct proof: the presence of human bones within human coprolites or the identification of human bites on human bones.
(2) Indirect proof: mainly cooking or pot polish marks.
(3) First-order primary criteria: anthropogenic fracture and differential anatomical representation (if this anomalous representation is not related to post-depositional processes but to the functional exploitation of the bones).
(4) Second-order primary criteria: mainly cut marks.
(5) Secondary criteria that are not directly related to functional exploitation: position and preservation of the bones and presence of burned bones.
...
The researchers found evidence to fit all these criteria, minus the coprolites.
