8 Foot Giant Humans Uncovered in Berryville, Virginia

8 Foot Giant Humans Uncovered in Berryville, Virginia



Spoke burials or skeletons situated around a central figure is most prominent in the Ohio Valley burial mounds.  The giant skeletons found in Virginia are a likely extension of the Ohio Valley giants


THE NEW YORK TIMES, JUNE 8, 1924
INDIAN GRAVES YIELD
SHENANDOAH RELICS
      Flood waters near Berryville. Virginia unearth a 7 1/2 foot skeleton of an ancient human. Of course, when this human, to whom the bones belonged, was alive in the flesh he would have been more like 7 feet. 9 inches tall. Also, this skeleton like some others found in the same area had generally 2 to 3 times the mass as that of contemporary humans. The grave where the skeleton was found was centrally located amongst other graves, perhaps, testifying to the important position in society that the owner of these bones once held.
     Another find, much larger than the first, was on the farm of Felix McManus, near Berryville,Virginia This is supposed to be an old Indian cemetery, and the unearthing was done by floods when the Shenandoah River was unusually high. Practically the same sort of relics were found, including a tomahawk. The graves were grouped around a center one in which the skeleton measured seven and one-half feet.
