Cannibalism died out

| No Comments

Anyone descended from missionaries will be interested in this story from the BBC: Eaten missionary's family head for Fiji.

The residents of a Fiji village are preparing to apologise to the family of a Christian missionary who was eaten by tribes people 136 years ago…

The inhabitants of Navatusila on the island of Viti Levu believe their village has been suffering bad luck ever since the cannibalism incident, and hope saying sorry will help their fortunes.

I love the last sentence which suggests "Cannibalism died out". Did the last man alive eat himself or die of natural causes?
