The request to rename this article to Cannibalism in the Americas has been carried out.

Cannibalism in pre-Columbian America → Cannibalism in the Americas – I suggest this more generic name to allow better coverage of cases that happened after Columbus (and nearly all information that we have is at least technically "post-Columbian") and to allowing merging this article with the relevant parts of Human cannibalism § History, while preserving its history. See Talk:Human cannibalism § What do do about article length? for more rationale and discussion. Gawaon (talk) 18:47, 22 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

No replies, that means no objections, I guess! I'll move the page now. Gawaon (talk) 10:18, 1 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
