Ancient 8 Foot Giant Removed From a Burial Mound Near Scipio, New York

Ancient 8 Foot Giant Removed From a Burial Mound Near Scipio, New York




Weekly News and Democrat, Auburn NY May 30, 1878
Giant Skeleton
   John White, while excavating with a party in Scipio, on Tuesday, exhumed the bones of two Indians.  The location of the find is on the farm of E. P. Hoskins, Indian Fields Road.  The skeletons when first discovered were entire and in a sitting position.
   Much care was taken in digging around them to preserve them intact, but they fell apart in the removal.  One of the skeletons was that of a giant, measuring three feet across the hips, and eight feet in stature.  Its lower jaw was of immense proportions, and would easily span the head of any of the party engaged in the discovery.  A number of trinkets usually accompanying the Indian remains were found in the bones

Gigantic Human Remains Found
 A letter from Kern County, California reports that in digging a grave on the old banks of the Kern River, not long since, there was found a human skeleton seven foot, 5 and a half inches in length.  The account says there was placed with it, of eleven flint arrow heads and spear heads, and that.the skull was much larger than the ordinary size of craniums moving around at the present day. A full-grown person placed his head inside the skull, The Louisville Courier Journal, however, tells a bigger story thus- "Workmen in the new fire cistern, in Jeffersonville, Kentucky exhumed, twelve foot from the surface, a part of the skeleton of a giant at least  twelve feet high. The skull was badly broken by the workmen, but sufficient of the jaw and face bones were saved to show that it was the remains of a monstrous sized human being,” A shinbone was dug up which measured near three feet in height.”

Human Giants Skull Discovered on Vancouver Island, B.C.,  Donated to the Smithsonian





    Captain Newton H. Chittenden of Santa Barbara, California, yesterday presented to the Smithsonian Institution the skull of an aboriginal giant, which he found on the southern shore of Vancouver Island, B. C., about a week ago.  The specimen which is that of a Flathead Indians was obtained by the owner at great personal risk, and he has long treasured it as priceless.  It has been the object of great interest among the may European anthropologists who have  seen it and many have offered great sums to tempt Capt. Chittenden to part with it, but until yesterday he persistently declined.

FINDS GIANT'S BONES IN MOUND
Captain Newton H. Chittenden Makes Discovery of Skelelton of a Prehistoric Man
  Captain Newton H. Chittenden, the explorer and lecturer has proved the theory that he held for some time that the neighborhood was formerly the home of giants by finding the bones of the of the species. Captain Chittenden refuses to reveal the burial ground of this prehistoric man, but admits that it is somewhere in one of the oldest Indian mounds of West Berkeley.
    The bones found by Captain Chittenden make almost a complete skeleton, the missing parts being a number of the vertebrae.  The thigh bones are a large and measured by present day standards indicate that the owner of them must have been a man by at least eight feet high.  Half the skull is gone, but the half that remains shows that twice as many brains as that of the modern man.  This skull is like one found several years ago in West Berkeley when excavations were being made for the foundation of a building.
 " I have no doubt," say Captain Chittenden, "that ages ago giants roamed around this country.  This man was no monstrosity, such as we occasionally have nowadays, but a perfectly formed man ans possessed of great of great intellectual powers.  I intend to continue my investigation in the hope of finding more bones of our ancestors."
  Captain Chittenden will present the skeleton to the Berkeley High School.

8 1/2 Foot Giant Human Skeletons Unearthed On Lundy Island, England


8 1/2 Foot Giant Human Skeletons Unearthed On 

Lundy Island, England






 The Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Magazine, 1876   
 "Very different was the stature of some skeletons found at Lundy Island, in the Bristol Channel, a few years ago, of which the writer procured the following account for Dr. Thurnam from the son of Mr. Heaven, the chief resident on the island: "The skeletons were found on the top of the island, about 2 feet underground, in digging foundations for a wall in farm buildings. The number of the more perfect skeletons was seven, lying in a row with the heads to the West. The first in the row, a male, measured 8 feet 5 inches by the head were placed two upright stones with the head lying in a little hollow, and protected by a third stone. None of the others had any appearance of coffins with them but great numbers of limpet shells. The one measured was measured by my father, by whose orders the remains were buried again, but I am afraid much injured by the workmen in doing so. Some pottery and some beads were found with them, Mr. Etheridge, then curator of the British Institution, showed some of the pottery to a friend of his, an antiquary, I believe, who said it was undoubtedly the Ancient British.
