Why did ancient people kill people after autumn?

There was no science at all in ancient times. Ancient people believed in God very much, so their insistence on asking for heaven after autumn was also related to theocracy. In their view, asking questions after the autumn is in line with God's will and formed according to God's will, so as not to be punished by God's will.

Interrogation after autumn is to deal with prisoners in autumn and winter. Throughout the year, each season symbolizes a different meaning. The revival of everything in spring is the starting point of all vitality, the season for farmers to sow and harvest hope, which symbolizes vitality; In summer, a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred birds contend. Fierceness is a symbol of exuberant vitality, passion and hope. In autumn, leaves fall, flowers wither and everything is bleak and desolate; In winter, it is freezing cold, everywhere is pale, and vitality disappears, symbolizing desolation.

Therefore, through the above analysis, according to the ancient people's belief in the gods, in the spring and summer, which represents life and vitality, they will never deal with prisoners. Because beheading is an unlucky thing, it is even more suffocating. In the eyes of the ancients, this is a collision with the gods, a misfortune, an act against God's will and a punishment. The bleak autumn and winter, which symbolizes desolation, is most suitable for doing these things. Therefore, in order to comply with God's will, whenever a sin is sentenced, it will be put in autumn to ask for punishment, which is a respect for God.

In the modern scientific society, we are no longer superstitious, but we can also understand the persistence of the ancients in the autumn. After all, it is really bad to do such a bloody thing in such a vibrant and energetic spring and summer. Therefore, even in modern society, people have maintained due respect for many things.
