There is plenty of reason to believe they're actually humans. Their armor is human shaped and when you encounter a ghost of one it looks like a human. Also, we get hits out of game from a few developers that seem to favor the idea of Akavir humans. My opinion is that the "eating" of the men was a cultural one. Akaviri men still exist but there are also naga-like creatures.
