The Five Punishments
May the Five Punishments always remind the innocent that only despair awaits a life of crime.For those who commit the worst of all crimes, only the most severe penance awaits.
The 'Application of the Five Punishments' began as grievous mutilation of the condemned before death, involving tattooing of the face, removal of the nose, and amputation of the feet.
These truly egregious tortures were abolished as the Han grew, replaced with bastinado - foot whipping. However, the sentence is still known, due to its history, as the 'five punishments'; a grim reminder to convicts how lucky they are by comparison.
