Scaphism, also known as "the boats," was an ancient method of torture and execution that was used by the Persians and later by the Greeks. The method involved trapping a person between two boats or hollowed-out tree trunks, smearing them with honey and milk, and then leaving them to be devoured by insects.
The victim would be stripped naked and placed in one of the boats. The other boat would be placed on top of them, trapping them inside. Holes would be cut in the top boat to allow the person's head, arms, and legs to protrude. The person would then be fed a mixture of milk and honey, which would attract insects such as flies, wasps, and ants.
Over time, the insects would swarm around and inside the person's body, eating the honey and milk, and eventually, the person's flesh. The victim would be left to suffer in the boats, often for several days, until they died from a combination of starvation, dehydration, and insect bites.
