I am peaceful, I am strong
Though dark may seem so long
For day must follow night,
Everything is alright.
I am always safe from harm,
The Goddess holds me in her arms

History Part3 (Witch-Hunts)
Wednesday, July 16, 2008, 06:21 AM EST [History]
1,533 account of the execution of a witch charged with burning the town of Schiltach in 1531 a witch-hunt is a search for witches or evidence of witchcraft, often involving moral panic, mass hysteria and mob lynching, but in historical instances also legally sanctioned and involving official witchcraft trials. The classical period of witch-hunts in Europe fall into the Early Modern Period or about 1450-1700, spanning the upheavals of the Reformation and the Thirty Years' War, resulting in tens of thousands of executions. Many cultures throughout the world, both ancient and modern, have reacted to allegations of witchcraft either by superstitious fear and awe, and killed any alleged practitioners of witchcraft outright; or shunned it as quackery, extortion or fraud. Witch-hunts still occur in the modern era, in many and various communities where religious values condemn the practice of witchcraft and the occult. Modern Witch-Hunts In some parts of the world, including South Africa and India, witch-hunts still occur to this day. Witch-hunts against children were reported by the BBC in 1999 in the Congo and in Tanzania older women are killed as witches if they have red eyes. A lawsuit was launched in 2001 in Ghana, where witch-hunts are also common, by accused of being a witch. Witch-hunts in Africa are often led by relatives seeking the property of the accused victim. Africa= In many African societies the fear of witches drives periodic witch-hunts during which specialist witch-finders identify suspects, even today with death by mobs often the result. Richards Audrey the 1st, in the journal Africa relates in 1995 an instance when a new wave of witch finders the Bamucapi, appeared in the villages of the Bemba people. They dressed in European clothing, and would summon the headman to prepare a ritual meal for the village. When the villagers arrived they would view them them all in a mirror, and claimed they could identify witches with this method. These witches would then have to "Yield up his horns"; ie give over the horn containers for curses and evil potions to the witch-finders. The bamucapi then made them all drink a potion called kucapa which would cause a witch to die and swell up if he ever tried such things again. The villagers related that the witch-finders were always right because the witches they found were always the ones the village had feared all along. The bamucapi utilized a mixture of Christian and native religious traditions to account for their powers and said that God (not specifying which God) helped them prepare their medicine. In addition, all witches who didn't attend the meal to be identified would be called to account later on by their master, who had risen from the dead, and who would force the witches by means of drums to go to the graveyard, where they would die. Richards noted that the bamucapi created the sense of danger in the village , whether they were used for anti-witchcraft charms, potions, snuff or were indeed receptacles of black magic. The Bemba people believed misfortunes such as haubtings and famines to be just actions sanctioned by the High-God Lesa. The only agency which caused unjust harm was a witch, who had enormous power and was hard to detect. After white rule of African beliefs in sorcery and witchcraft grew, possibly because of the social strain caused by new ideas, customs and laws, and also because the corts no longer allwed witches to be tried. Amongst the Bantu tribes of Southern Africa the witch smellers were responsible for detecting witches. In parts of Southern Africa several hundred people have been killed in witch-hunts since 1990. The Witch-Hunts in Europe helped them colonize 90% of the world. Tags:
