Nephilim Giant Uncovered in Huntington County, Indiana Burial Mound

Nephilim Giant Uncovered in Huntington County, Indiana Burial Mound


A slight ditch can be seen surrounding this mound in Huntington County, Indiana. Grave Creek Mound in West Virginia also had this ditch along with an 8 foot skeleton within it.

The News Boy (Benton, Missouri) August 22, 1896
   Dr. J. M. Shutt, while exploring an Indian mound on the farm of Marion Thompson, in Huntington county, Indiana on the 14th, unearthed a  number of Indian skeletons, the largest being that of an Indian giant, eight feet two inches long.  The skull is five-eighths of an inch thick.


The location of the burial mound in the southeast corner of Section 29. The Thompson property is to the north.  This is one of the few burial mounds in Huntington County and it is presumed that the writer of the article was confused to what property the mound was located.

Indian Giant Uncovered at Eagle Lake, Near Warsaw in Kosciusko County, Indiana

Indian Giant Uncovered at Eagle Lake, Near Warsaw in Kosciusko County, Indiana





Burial Mound Overlooking Eagle Lake In Warsaw (Kosciusko County) Indiana

Cincinnati Commercial, October 7, 1888
BONES OF AN INDIAN GIANT
     A member of the Logan Grays, the crack military organization of Logansport that held its encampment this year at Eagle Lake, near Warsaw stopped in this city on his way home from camp and told the following story of the discovery by the party of a cavern on an island in Eagle Lake; A.M. Jones rowed to a small island near the southwest corner of the lake and began digging for worms.
      He turned over a large, flat stone near a tree, and under it was a small hole, which was an entrance to a cave. Jones called the boys up, and we began an exploration of the cavern, which proved to be twenty-five feet long, fifteen feet wide, and eight feet deep. The walls are of a natural formation of stone, branching out at the middle so as to form two rooms.
In the front room was the skeleton of a man six feet nine inches long. The bones were very large, indicating great strength. Along one side of the cave runs a small stream of water, as pure as crystal. In the front of it forms a small pool. In this were a number of bones.

Pennsylvania Doctor Measures a Giant from a Burial Mound at 8 feet 2 inches

Pennsylvania Doctor Measures a Giant from a Burial Mound at 8 feet 2 inches





History of Bradford County, Pennsylvania, 1878

      In 1822, while digging a cellar on the farm of Gen. McKean, the excavation came to what was a supposed to be “an impenetrable rock, but striking it with a crowbar, it gave forth a hollow sound.” They redoubled their efforts, and at last the stone broke and fell into a vault. And now, with visions of long-buried treasure flitting through their minds, they carefully removed the earth from the arch, speculating the while as to the probable extent of the “treasure trove” and the amount of salvage the general would be likely to claim. On removing the cap they found “not what they sought” but a sepulcher. A careful examination of the sarcophagus revealed it flagged at the bottom, the sides artistically built up, and a flat stone laid on the top. The sarcophagus measured nine feet in length, two feet six inches in width, and two feet deep. In it was found a skeleton, measuring, as it lay, eight feet two inches in length (this measurement was made by Dr. Williams, late of Troy, now deceased). The teeth were sound, but the bones were soft and easily broken. There were two of these sepulchers within the space of the cellars, one of which had a pine growing over it three feet in diameter.

Ancient England Druid's Mound Entombing a Large Skeleton is Discovered in New York State

Ancient England Druid's Mound Entombing a Large Skeleton is Discovered in New York State



Burial mound is surrounded by a ditch an earthen wall, much like is found in the Ohio Valley.  This same type of burial mound was common in England with the people that constructed Stonehenge.


History of Cattaraugus County New York  1879
    About two miles south of the village of Rutledge, in the town of Connewango, on lot No. 45, at a point about sixty rods east of Connewango Creek and near the residence of Norman E. Cowen, there was discovered by the first pioneers of this section a sepulcher mound, nearly circular in form, and having an entire circumference of 170 feet.  The height of the mound was about 12 feet.  Mr Cheney spoke of this work as "having the appearance of being constructed with the ditch outside of the mound as in Druid Barrows.
   Within the mound there were discovered 9 human skeletons, which had been buried in a sitting posture and at regular intervals of space, in the form of a circle, and facing towards a common center.  There were some slight appearance that the framework had enclosed the dead at the time of their internment.  The skeletons were so far decayed as to crumble upon exposure to the atmosphere, but were all of very large size.  An osfemur (the largest found here) was 28 inches in length."

GIANT IN ANCIENT MOUND
Curious Relics of Prehistoric Times are found in Tomb
Huntington West Virginia - June 22, - The municipal authorities of Central City, four miles west of here, three weeks ago ordered the removal of a prehistoric mound from Thirteenth street.  Today twelve feet above the base of the mound a gigantic human skeleton was discovered.  It is almost seven feet in length, and of massive proportions.
   It was surrounded by a mass of rude trinkets.  Eight huge copper bracelets were discovered. Thus, when burnished, proved to be of purest beaten copper and a perfect preservation.  Rude stone vessels, hatchets, and arrowheads were found with the skeleton.

    A curiously inscribed totem was found at the head of the skeleton.  The Smithsonian Institution will be notified of the discovery.

Chillicothe, Ohio's Ancient Nephilim Queens Burial Mound

Chillicothe, Ohio's Ancient Nephilim Queen's Burial Mound



Prehistoric America, 1911
     Under a mound at Chillicothe, the skeleton was discovered of a very tall woman who died young; her teeth were all intact, and at her feet lay the bones of a child. Beneath these human remains was greasy black earth, in which the microscope has revealed remains of animal matter and heaps of cinders. Further excavations brought to light a great many other bones. It is uncertain whether they were those of unfortunates offered up in sanguinary rites, or merely of those whose remains had been subjected to cremation as a mark of respect. All the bodies lay on the left side, and by each one was placed a vessel full of food, which would hardly have been provided for victims. These are very characteristic funeral rites.

Giant Iroquois Remains Uncovered in Mount Morris, New York Burial Mound

Giant Iroquois Remains Uncovered in Mount Morris, New York Burial Mound



History of Livingston County, New York, 1881
When Jesse Stanley came to Mount Morris in 1811, an Indian mound, nearly a hundred feet in diameter and from 8 to 10 feet high, covered the site of the late General Mills' residence. The mound had long been crowned by a great tree, which had recently fallen under the ax, the stump remaining, though much weather-beaten. Deacon Stanley was told that when freshly cut it disclosed a hundred and thirty concentric circles or yearly growths. About the year 1820, the mound was removed, and, in its removal, arrowheads, a brass kettle and knives were thrown out. A number of skeletons were also disinterred. Among the bones was a human skeleton of enormous size, the jaw-bone of which was so large that Adam Holtslander placed it, mask-like, over his own chin and jaw, although he was the largest man in the settlement, and his face was in proportion to the rest of his body. Metal, in the form of rude medals, a pipe, and other articles, were picked out of the earth thrown from the excavation.

9 Foot Human Skeleton With a Double Row of Teeth Found in Bowling Green, Kentucky

9 Foot Human Skeleton With a Double Row of Teeth Found in Bowling Green, Kentucky


Large burial mounds that contained giant skeletons was a common find in Kentucky.

The Daily Leger, Noblesville, Indiana - Aug., 16 1902
A GIANT
Unearthed at Bowling Green, Kentucky 
Measures Nine Feet in Length
Double Rows of Teeth
     The skeleton of a prehistoric giant was exhumed near Bowling Green yesterday by a colored laborer, who terrified at his find, ran, breathless, to the nearest farmhouse and notified the neighborhood.  The skeleton when placed together as is was in life, measured nearly nine feet in length.  The skull measures almost 12 inches in diameter, and there are two distinct rows of teeth in the massive jaw.  The bones are well preserved with the exception of the pelvic bones, which are considerably decayed.  The bones were thought to be the remains of some giant Indian, but the shape of the head is not, the shape of the skull peculiar to Indians, and the age in which the man lived is still in doubt.
   The bones of the toes and fingers are remarkably well preserved and appear to have something resembling claws attached.  The arms of the giant measure many inches more than those of a man today, and were the lower limbs not so long the skeleton would have bear a close resemblance to a huge gorilla.  There is no wound visible on the bones, and that the man died of natural death is quite possible.
