The idea that the Mayas were cannibals is a controversial topic among scholars. While some evidence suggests that ritualistic cannibalism may have occurred in certain contexts, especially related to warfare and sacrifice, it is not representative of the entire Maya civilization. Most of the evidence points to a complex society with a rich culture, art, and religion, rather than widespread cannibalism. Thus, while some isolated incidents may have taken place, it would be misleading to label the Maya as a cannibalistic society overall.
