Amianthus - you're bang on, but I think it has more significance than just shared cultural roots. It seems like, in every culture, blood becomes an imporant feature of spiritual sacrifice. Blood is the vivid symbol of life, and spilling blood becomes a visceral (literally!) embodiment of sacrifical sacrament.
