Waist chop
Waist chop (Chinese:腰斩, yāozhǎn) was a form of execution in ancient China.
==History==
Waist chop first appeared in the Zhou dynasty. It has been argued that the appearance of waist chop was a humanistic move for its time, since during the Shang dynasty, most executions involved certain forms of cooking and cannibalism. Zhou used three executions: ''chelie'' (車裂; quartering the prisoner alive), ''zhan'' (斬; waist chop), and ''sha'' (殺; beheading).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=揭秘古代酷刑："腰斩"的历史从产生到消失_资讯_凤凰网 )〕 Sometimes the chopping was not limited to one slice. Gao Qi, a Ming Dynasty poet, was sentenced to be sliced into 8 parts by Zhu Yuanzhang for his politically satirical writing.〔祝允明《野记》：“魏守（观）欲复府治，兼疏溶城中河。御史张度劾公，有‘典灭王之基，开败国之河’之语。盖以旧治先为伪周所处，而卧龙街西淤川，即旧所谓锦帆泾故也。上大怒，置公极典。高太史启，以作《新府上梁文》与王彝皆与其难。高被截为八段--。”〕 An episode not attested in the official histories tell that in 1734, Yu Hongtu (俞鴻圖), the Education Administrator of Henan, was sentenced to waist chop. After the execution, he wrote the word "miserable" (慘 ''can'') with his own blood seven times. After hearing this, the Yongzheng Emperor abolished this form of execution.〔林濤《正說清朝三百年》〕
