Um, um, no. Sorry. What kind of cannibalism do you have in mind here? Are you referring to icky nasty people going out and killing others just so they can eat them, or are you instead referring to the practice of devouring an enemy slain in war, or do you mean the reverential consumption of a family member after natural death as part of the funerary rite?
I was thinking of Christians ;-)
