Execution by Elephant

By Maleficium · Death Metal

Another Maleficium track about human ingenuity in killing, now an indian style execution...

In medieval India, elephants were trained to crush criminals slowly, prolonging the suffering. In 1305, the Sultan of Delhi used elephants fitted with blades to dismember prisoners. European visitors wrote about the gruesome spectacle with horrified fascination.
