Cannibalism is perhaps the ultimate cultural taboo. There are many reasons why humans partake in this practice; for cultural purposes, for survival or even for pleasure. Be clear: I do not condone or in any way; endorse what is contained in the following accounts. Read at your own risk.
同类相食也许是人类文化的最高禁忌。导致食人的原因有多种：为了文化目的、为了生存、或是为了纯粹的“享乐”。需要说明的是，制作该榜并非代表我对下述食人案的容忍或任何程度的推崇，也请观者本着对自己负责的态度读它。

10.Alferd Packer
10.阿尔弗雷德·帕克

Packer was an American gold prospector and convicted cannibal. On February 9th 1874, he left with 5 others for an expedition in the Colorado mountains. Two months later Packer returned from the expedition alone. When questioned of the whereabouts of the men that had been with him, Packer said that he killed them in self defense and was forced to eat their remains in order to survive the elements. His story was not believed and he soon after signed two separate confessions. Packer was given a 40 year sentence, at that time the longest communal sentence in United States history. Amazingly he was granted parole because sufficient doubt remained about his innocence.
帕克是一名美国金矿勘探者及食人犯。1874年2月9日他同五人赴科罗拉多山区考察，两个月后只身而返。当被问及同行五人的去向时，帕克说他为了自卫不得不杀死他们，并靠尸体充饥。这种解释没有得到采信，不久他签下两份独立供词。帕克被有期判徒刑40年，这是当时美国历史上最长的社区服刑。戏剧性的是他被准予假释，因为许多人相信他的清白。

9.Albert Fish
9.阿尔伯特·菲什

Albert Fish was a true life monster in every sense of the word. He was sadistic, delusional and worst of all he received gratification from his repulsive acts. Besides being an admitted serial killer and cannibal, he was also a rampant pedophile and a deviant. Fish kidnapped, murdered, and consumed a 10 year old girl from Manhattan. Six years later Fish taunted the innocent girl’s family by sending a letter to them graphically detailing his crime and the pleasure he received committing it. The letter was traced back to him and he was arrested and convicted. Justice would be served on January 16, 1936 as Fish was executed at the Sing Sing Correctional Facility in upstate New York.
阿尔伯特·菲什，究其一生就是个不折不扣的真恶魔。他残酷、妄想，并且更糟糕的是，从令人恶心的行为中得到欢愉。除了连环杀人犯和食人魔，他还是个变态、猖狂的恋童癖者。菲什绑架、谋杀并吃掉一名来自曼哈顿的10岁女孩。6年后他给女孩家属写信嘲笑他们，并附图详细展示作案过程、表露犯罪的快意。警方通过信件追踪查到菲什的住址，将他逮捕送审。1936年1月16日，菲什在纽约新新监狱被处刑，正义得到伸张。

8.Revolutionary United Front
8.革命联合阵线

RUF was a revolutionary group based in Sierra Leone in Western Africa. By the late 1990’s they had been mired in a long bloody campaign to topple the central government. These insurgents terrorized rural Sierra Leone in an effort to control the nations diamond mines. Aided by factions of the National Patriotic Front of Liberia, these groups committed horrific atrocities which included forcing children to become soldiers, amputations of limbs and cannibalism of enemies, including peacekeepers and United Nations personnel. Their motives for eating their enemies were to receive “strength” from eating human flesh and as a tool for intimidation. The exact number of victims is unknown.
RUF 是成立于西非塞拉里昂的革命组织。90年代末他们陷入一场旨在推翻中央政府的血腥持久战。为控制钻石矿，叛乱者在塞拉里昂农村地区实行恐怖统治。在利比里亚全国爱国阵线的协助下，叛乱组织实施了可怕的暴行，包括强征童兵、将人肢解、食敌人肉（一些维和士兵及联合国员工也成为牺牲品）。其食人动机是从人肉中吸取“能量”，同时达到恐怖威吓的效果。目前受害者确切数字无法得知。

7.Issei Sagawa
佐川一政

Sagawa was a Japanese student completing an English Literature degree in Paris. He met and then shot a co-ed on June 11, 1981. After her death, he proceeded to cannibalize her over the next two days. Sagawa was eventually arrested by French authorities but deemed unfit for trial due to insanity and was deported. In one of the worst examples of injustice in legal history; a paperwork error allowed Sagawa to simply check himself out of a mental institution after a little more than a year of confinement. He is now a free man living in Japan.
佐川曾是一名日本留学生，在巴黎攻读英国文学。1981年11月他约见、枪杀了一名女同学，其后两天里一直“享用”着她的尸体。佐川被法国官方逮捕，却因精神错乱不适合受审而被驱逐出境。在这场司法史上最不公正的案件中，一项文书工作的失误使得佐川在仅仅一年多的监禁后离开精神病院。现在他以自由人的身份生活在日本。

6.Andrei Chikatilo
6.安德烈·奇卡缇洛

Chikatilo was a Ukrainian born serial killer and rapist. While in custody, Chikatilo confessed to over 50 murders and mutilations. He befriended, killed, and ate his victims. He admitted that his motives were solely for sexual gratification. The details of Chikatilo’s life and crimes are the stuff that nightmares are made of. This madman only halted his killing spree when he was finally arrested and identified after one of the largest operations in Russian police history. Chikatilo was executed in Rostov on February 14, 1994.
奇卡缇洛，乌克兰人，是一名连环杀手及强奸犯，羁押期间供认杀人残尸案50起。他亲近猎物，然后谋杀、吃掉他们。据承认，作案动机在于纯粹的性满足。奇卡缇洛的生活和犯罪残酷得如同噩梦，而其杀戮的狂欢直到归案的最后一刻才落下帷幕。追捕他是本国警察史上规模最大的行动之一。1994年2月14日奇卡缇洛在罗斯托夫被处死。

5.Mauerova family
5.毛厄罗娃一家

The Mauerova’s are a family of cult members and cannibals from the Czech Republic. Over an 8 month period, relatives and fellow cult members participated in despicable acts against two brothers. The actual details of what a mother allowed to be done to her young children are extremely disturbing. By a remarkable chain of events, the truth about the Maurova family was discovered on May 10, 2007 when horrific images on a baby monitor (which they had installed in their house to view the crimes) where picked up by a neighbor who had the exact same monitor. A total of six people were eventually convicted.
毛厄罗娃一家是捷克居民、异教徒。家中两幼子被亲人及教内帮凶可鄙地残害超过八个月。令人费解的是施虐母亲的残忍和冷漠。2007年5月10日，这家的恶行于偶然间暴露（用于观赏犯罪的探头泄露了信号到同样安装了探头的邻居家）。最终有六人被判罪。

4.Armin Meiwes
4.阿明·迈韦斯

By most accounts Meiwes was a depraved and pathetic individual from Roteburg, Germany. In 2001 he posted an advertisement on an internet site which read in part “looking for a well-built 18 to 30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed”. Unbelievably Meiwes received a serious response from a willing participant. The two men met on Christmas Day and proceeded to commit and videotape some of the most unimaginable acts on earth. Meiwes was arrested after revealing details of his crime. He is currently serving a life sentence in a German prison.
迈韦斯，德国罗滕堡人，据说是个堕落的可怜虫。2001年他在某网站发布广告，招募“18到30岁体格良好、愿意被杀死后吃掉的人”。难以置信的是，他得到了一名志愿者的郑重回复。两人在圣诞日见面，进而开展计划并录下全过程（其场景不堪入目到极致）。迈韦斯在网上公布犯罪过程后被捕，目前在德国一所监狱服无期徒刑。

3.Jeffrey Dahmer
3.杰夫瑞·达莫

Dahmer was an American serial killer, necrophiliac, and cannibal from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Dahmer, an extremely disturbed individual, would lure young men to his apartment where he would murder and dismember them after sedating them with alcohol or drugs. After disposing of his victims he would consume or experiment with their remains. By the time of his trial he was charged and convicted of 15 murders and given numerous life sentences. On November 28, 1994 Dahmer was beaten to death at the Colombia Correctional Institution in Milwaukee.

2.Carib West Indian Tribes
2.西印度群岛的加勒比食人族

The first known modern accounts of cannibalism were reported following Columbus’ expedition to the West Indies. At this point cannibalism was considered atrocious and sacrilegious in the developed world. Imagine, if you will, the indescribable horror that the first Europeans felt when they witnessed Carib natives during a post war ritual chewing and/or eating human flesh. This misunderstanding of Caribbean culture lead to the people of the America’s being considered “savages”. These sentiments lead to policies which encouraged countless incidents of slavery, mass murder, exploitation and destruction of the native culture of the America’s that continued for centuries.
现代的食人案记录始于哥伦布西印度群岛的探险。在当时的发达国家，食人被看作残忍、渎神的行为。因此不难想象欧洲第一批探险者看到加勒比土著战后咀嚼人肉时难以言喻的恐怖。这种文化误解导致了几个世纪以来针对美洲人的种族歧视、大规模奴役、恣意谋杀、疯狂掠夺及对当地文明的毁坏。

1.Stella Maris College Rugby Team
1.Stella Maris大学“老基督徒”橄榄球队

On October 13, 1972 the team was on its way from Montevideo, Uruguay to play a match in Santiago Chile. Fierce wind and snow hounded the flight as the plane trekked through the Andes mountains. Due to poor weather and pilot error the plane crashed atop of an unnamed mountain on the border of Chile and Argentina. Search parties from three countries searched for 11 days in vain to find the downed flight of 45 people but were unsuccessful and all passengers were presumed dead. What followed next is one of the greatest examples of human survival ever recorded. Despite no food or heat 16 members of the team stayed on top of the mountain for over two months through the brutal winter while being forced to eat the remains of their fallen teammates before finally being rescued.
1972 年10月13日“老基督徒”橄榄球队从乌拉圭蒙特维多出发赴智利圣地亚哥参赛。飞机行至安第斯山脉上空时遭遇强风和降雪。恶劣的天气和驾驶员操控失误导致飞机坠毁于智利和阿根廷边界某座无名山峰，45名乘客全部失踪。来自三个国家的搜索队在山间徒劳搜寻了11天，而后所有乘客被推定为死亡。接下来发生了人类生存史上最伟大的奇迹。在没有食物和热源的情况下球队16名成员在严冬中的山顶坚持了两个月，其间不得不靠吃罹难同伴的肉生存，直到救援队的最终来临。

The Maori People
毛利人

The Maori were the first settlers of New Zealand - arriving many centuries before Europeans. Their culture dates back to the early modern era. They had been known to practice cannibalism during warfare. In October 1809 a European convict ship was attacked by a large group of Maori warriors in revenge for the mistreatment of a chief’s son. The Maori killed most of the 66 people on board and carried dead and alive victims off the boat and back to shore to be eaten. A few lucky survivors who were able to find a hiding spot inside the mast of the boat were horrified as they watched the Maori devour their shipmates through the night until the next morning.
毛利人是第一批新西兰定居者——比欧洲人早许多世纪来到新西兰。他们的文化可以追溯到近代早期，因战事下的食人传统著称。1809年10月，一艘押解犯人的欧洲船在当地遭遇大群毛利武士的袭击，目的是报复酋长儿子受到的虐待。毛利人杀死66名船员中的大多数，将死者和俘虏拖上岸吃他们的肉。一些藏身船桅里的幸存者心惊胆战地目睹吃人的场面，从黑夜持续到黎明。
