––––––––

Cockfighting is more than just a sport, it’s also a way of honoring these magnificent birds. They have been admired and worshiped by many cultures for ages. In ancient times, the fighting cock was even seen as a divine being! The origins of this practice go back to before the time of Christ. Cockfighting is a part of a rich and ancient history and culture that we should respect and appreciate.

Did you know that fighting cocks have a divine history? The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that these birds were sacred to their gods, such as Ares and Mars. But they were not alone in their admiration. Across the globe, people have honored these birds for their courage and beauty. For example, in south Canara, India, roosters were used as talismans to ward off evil spirits. And in some Pacific Islands, temples were dedicated to house these special birds.

But perhaps the most intriguing ritual involved cockfights inside the temple. When one bird lost the fight and died, its body would be burned in a pot of gold with spices and gums as an offering to the deities. The ashes became its final resting place.

It's fascinating to learn how different cultures have honored and respected these beautiful creatures throughout history.
