There is some historical evidence suggesting that the Moabites may have practiced child sacrifice in certain extreme circumstances. Some ancient texts and archaeological findings indicate that this practice was not uncommon among some ancient civilizations, including the Moabites. However, it's important to note that not all Moabites would have participated in or condoned such practices.
Moab, Israel and Judah were three of the small independent West Semitic states to arise around the same time, following the decline of the Canaanite city-states. It may seem surprising that the Israelites and Judahites are now understood by scholars to have been West Semitic (Canaanite) people like the Moabites, but the Moabites never came to be regarded as Jewish. The Bible talks of a common bond between the people of the northern Hebrew kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah, but this bond is not evident with the Moabites.
I know the canaanites looked like Black Afrikan people as they were a Hamitic people (Canaan was the youngest son of Ham). The Moabites from what I can understand, had tan to yellow skin and slanted eyes (Chinese).
