Human sacrifices and cannibalism have attracted the popular and scientific interest of humanity. Their relationship is problematic but academically exciting given its content and meaning. In this context, the aims of these lines are to analyze some sources and their contradictions to elucidate the meaning of Aztec human sacrifice in its most usual form, and its connection with cannibalism, and the diet of common people. To accomplish them, we will compare the numbers that the chronicles offer us, and bring forward other possible explanations. The reader is encouraged to appraise these documents in a critical way in order to take advantage of their true value
