Yanıt Açıklaması:

Some scarifications (of young men and women and slaves) were practiced at temples. The ancient Chinese are known to have made sacrifices of young men and women to river deities (Hebo), and to have buried slaves alive with their owners upon death as part of a funeral service. This was especially prevalent during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Burnt offerings of animal flesh were common, and a kind of wine or beer made from millet was also considered acceptable. The correct answer is D.
