Ancient Hebrews Called the Constellation Orion, The Giant Nephilim in the Sky
Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, 1963. "Orion had a number of titiles signifying the word 'giant': The Jews called Orion Gibbor, the Giant. "The Syrians knew Orion as Gabbara; the Arabians as Al Jabbar, both signifying 'the Giant', Gigas, giant, Greek titil for Orion with Ptolemy, - and in Latin days occasionaly Gigas. Our words giant and gigantic, and the word giga (prefix meaning a billion) comefrom Latin gagas, Greek gigas. Orion is referred to as 'earthborn' because the gods Zeus, hermes and {Poseidon urinated into a bull's hide and buried it in earth. In Greek mythology the gigantes were (according to the poet Hesoid) the children of Uranos and Gaea (the Haven and the Earth). The prefix gi - of 'giant[, is believed to come from Gaia, or Gaea, meaning the earth, Gaa-antis. Is it any wonder that a large skeleton was unearthed at this site.
