Power
in numbers, no living thing can be credited with that saying
more than that of insects. The millions of tiny crawling and
flying insects that can detroy entire crops, carry horrible
viruses, and cosume human flesh. We highly underestimate their
potential for killing and torturing in this day and age.
There are many different ways to die by insects, but ill get
ot the most know, the kind used on martyrs. Early christian
martyrs
seemed to be relentlessy tortured by methods of insects of the
creep & crawly. Two insects were in primary use, the bee
and
mosquito. The bee was used simple by putting the restrained
person close to the nest and agrivating it. The thousands of
stings
will definatly kill the person. As for mosquitos, a mixture
of honey and milk was pasted onto the person so they would be
bitten
and eaten bit by bit, bite by bite. The honey and milk mixture
was mostly used on people who were freshly crucified to ensure
that there was even more pain in the process of dieing.
