The slaughter of hundreds of young children and llamas has been discovered in Peru from the 15th century. 

More than 140 boys and girls aged between five and 14 were slaughtered in what is thought to be a mass sacrifice to the gods of a now extinct religion. 

Many of the children and juvenile animals had their hearts cut out during the grisly ritual which archaeologists say was performed to appease the gods. 

It is thought a huge El Nino caused major flooding and storms which triggered the bloody sacrifice. 

Analysis of the remains of more than 200 juvenile llamas and humans dates it to approximately 1450, during the peak of the Chimu civilisation in northern coastal Peru.

The Huanchaquito-Las Llamas burial site is a 7,500 square foot area located less than half a mile from the Chimu's capital Chan Chan, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Its ancient empire controlled a 600-mile-long territory along the Pacific coast and interior valleys from the modern Peru-Ecuador border before the Incan empire took over.

The study findings come after six years of excavation work at the site from 2011 to 2016.

Study author John Verano, professor of anthropology at Tulane University, said: 'This site opens a new chapter on the practice of child sacrifice in the ancient world.

Anatomical and genetic tests, published in the journal PLOS One, say cuts across the children and llamas' sterna suggested they had their chests cut open to remove their hearts

'This archaeological discovery was a surprise to all of us - we had not seen anything like this before, and there was no suggestion from ethnohistoric sources or historic accounts of child or camelid sacrifices being made on such a scale in northern coastal Peru.
