Death is one of the most terrible things we humans have to go through. Where do we go after death? Is there a Hell or a Heaven? These are questions that still remain without answers. Since remote times, men have wondered about this, but not even technology as helped us find answers. Some poeple are said to have answers; it is true they do have answers, but answers that
are mainly fixed on their religious beliefs. Almost all religions have a theory about death, but the vary from one another, and sometimes the difference is big. But have we ever wondered: How long have cultures and religions proposed theories for life after death? The answer is, since millios of years ago. If we go to ancient cultures, like the greek of aztec cultures, we reconginized their theories to be rally close to our own. The idea that there is a hell and a heaven, and after death you are judged--if you were good suring your life you go to heaven; if not, you are punished in hell-- still remains in present cultures. Even though the theories may have similariteis, there are a few aspects related to death in ancient culture tha twe see as obsolete and horrifying. An example of this is sacrifice.
