 Mesoamerican warfare was a bloody and cruel affair steeped in ritual as the Mayans considered it to have been sanctioned by the Gods themselves. To die in battle was to secure an eternity of bliss but to allow oneself to be captured was a most terrible fate.

Those unfortunate enough to be taken prisoner by the Mayans were ritualistically slaughtered, usually by decapitation.

 The Mayan Warriors themselves would take part in blood letting rituals. Slitting own tongues and genitals and dripping the blood onto paper before burning it as an offering to their Gods.
