The Aztec Death Whistle

The first ever Aztec death whistle was found in Mexico City in the late 90s in the grave of a 20-year-old male who was the victim of a sacrifice. Beheaded, & with his arms crossed over his chest, the death whistle was found clutched within his skeletal hand. One of the most remarkable ancient musical instruments ever discovered, the sound of the Aztec death whistle has perplexed scholars for years. According to recent studies, it is so un-nerving that it can literally mess up your mind. In this episode, I actually play the sound of this infamous resonator for several seconds, but be warned that it might be one of the creepiest sounds you’ve ever heard. Why did the Atec's create these strange resonators? What were the actual results from the scientific tests? Watch to find out
