Giant Human Skeleton Discovered in New Mexico






Albuquerque Daily Citizen., Albuquerque, N.M. January 27, 1902
The Giant Skeleton
It Will Be removed to Las Veaga, New Mexico
    Don Gregorio Varela and Marcelino Martinez have gone down to El Nuervo.  They will go out to the mesa Rica and endeavor to buy the skeleton of a human giant, which was last week unearthed by Luciano Quintana.
  The giant would pay if brought here.  The Smithsonian people would be proud of a giant of the dimensions of this one. 
A leg is well preserved.  It is eight feet in length. The skeleton will be on exhibition in the courthouse and anthropologists are especially invited o examine it.

Giant Human Skeletons Uncovered in Cincinnati, Ohio

Giant Human Skeletons Uncovered in Cincinnati, Ohio





Akron Daily Democrat, August 15, 1902 
GIANT'S BONES
Found by Sand Pit Digger Near Cincinnati
 Thursday afternoon while Jacob Burk, of Bromley, Ky., a suburb of Cincinnati, was at work in the sand pits just east of Bromley, he unearthed what was at first supposed to be the bones of some animal, but on further examination it proved to be the skeleton of a man of gigantic proportions. After further excavating it was discovered that there were two more skeletons of gigantic size, lying alongside of the one which was first discovered. The skeletons were lying in regular order and were in an excellent state of preservation. They were measured and it was found that they averaged about seven feet in height and had massive features and high cheek bones. The bones were well preserved and only in a few places were they disconnected, while the teeth were in excellent condition. The excavation from which they were taken was 30 feet deep.

8 Foot Giant Excavated in a New York Burial Mound Replicated by Eye-Witness

8 Foot Giant Excavated in a New York Burial Mound Replicated by Eye-Witness





In 1876, a young man accompanied several of his neighbors who excavated a burial mound. What he witnessed would inspire him 62 years later to carve a replica of the remarkable find. Mr. Huntington’s motivation was to recreate exactly what he had witnessed many years ago, using the measurements taken by Mr. Cheney who was present at the dig. The model was built life-size, according to measurements taken by Mr. Huntington when a mound on the Conewango Road was opened. In the background is one of the two busts that he carved based on the measurements of a man who was 8 foot in height and a woman that was 7 foot 6 inches who were removed from the Grave Creek Mound in Moundsville, West Virginia.
The original account of the burial mound was printed in the History of Cattaraugus County, New York in 1879. These county histories featured prominent citizens of the county, whose reputations were beyond reproach.

12 Foot Nephilim Skeletons Discovered in a West Virginia Stone Mound

12 Foot Nephilim Skeletons Discovered in a West Virginia Stone Mound



Stone mounds were described on many of the hilltops along the Kanawha River tributaries.

Evening Star, July 16, 1898
Interesting discoveries in the vicinity of Parkersburg and Cheat Neck West Virginia 
      From Morgantown W. Va., opened one of a series of mounds in the vicinity of Cheat Neck, W. VA., with interesting results. The mound was partly built of stones, rising in a conical shape and covered with moss and wildflowers. After considerable labor, an entrance was made in the center of the mound, where two skeletons were found in a fair state of preservation both being of gigantic stature and build. When the men were in full life they must have been at least twelve high and possessed of enormous strength, as the size of the bones would indicate. With the exception of the enormous skulls, which were partly crumbled and decayed, the skeletons were in a perfect state of preservation."

Salina Kansas Nephilim Burial Pit and Tourist Attraction

Salina Kansas Nephilim Burial Pit and Tourist Attraction


The Giant's Burial Pit was also known as Salina's Indian Burial Pit. Many of the skeleton were reported to be six and seven feet tall. The skeletons were a tourist attraction, located near Salina, Kansas from 1936 to 1989. The Indian Burial Pit was covered and sealed with concrete by the State of Kansas at the insistence of the Pawnee Indians of Oklahoma, in 1990.


Miami daily News (Miami, Oklahoma) October 11, 1936
Ancient Burial Ground is Found in Kansas

Salina, Kas., Oct – (AP) – Discovery of an Indian communal burial ground believed to contain the remains of a tribe that roamed the plains of central Kansas more than 50o0 years ago, has been made five miles east of here by Guy T. Whiteford, policeman-archaeologists. Whiteford said he already has excavated 27 skulls and three complete skeletons, one of which he asserted was seven feet tall. The position of burial and ornaments found near the remains indicated the body was that of a chief, he said.

Evening Bulletin, March 21, 1882 
Prehistoric Giant
   A few days ago, some boys digging in an earth mound a short distance above Manchester, Ohio, brought to light a human skeletons in a good state of preservation, that measured over nine feet in length. The head was of enormous size, the jaw bone fitting loosely over the head of a large man. To what race of the past these remains belong and from whence the race came or where they went must forever remain a mystery. The discovery of the bones has created a sensation and is attracting much interest.

A PETRIFIED GIANT DUG UP.
Italian Laborers Unearth a Stone Man Eight Feet long. 
     New Haven, Conn., Sept. 16. Two Italians, while digging yesterday on the premises of Deputy Sheriff Arthur Plumb, near Trumoull Church, dicovered a petrified giant. Before Plumb lived upon the place it was occupied by Birdseye Plumb, who died many years ago. He used to tell his children of a giant named Christian Peterson, a Swed, who died 150 years ago. When the petrified giant was unearthed the traditions of the old town were recalled, and Sheriff Plumb says that this stone giant Is no doubt the petrified remains of Christian Peterson sheriff f Plumb said he would present the stone figure to the Fairfield Historical Society.

9 Foot Nephilim Giant Uncovered Near Muncie, Indiana

9 Foot Nephilim Giant Uncovered Near Muncie, Indiana



Quarterly Magazine Now and Then, 1888 

The Muncie Daily Times a year or two ago stated that "One of these mounds located three 


miles from Muncie was opened not long ago and found to be a sepulchral mound and 


contained the skeleton of a man who in life must have been a giant, at least nine feet high." 


This "Big Indian Story" would be hard to believe if giants about as great in stature did not 


exist in recent times.

12 Foot Prehistoric Giant Human Discovered in Missouri

12 Foot Prehistoric Giant Human Discovered in Missouri


Providence Evening Press- September 13, 1883
Must Have Been Goliath
Hon. J.H. Hainly, a well known and reliable citizen of Barnard, Mo., writes for the St. Joseph Gazette the particulars of the discovery of a giant skeletons four miles southwest of that place.  A farmer named John W.Hannon found the bones protruding from the bank of a ravine that has been cut by the action of the rains during the past years.  Mr Hannon worked several days in unearthing the skeleton, which proved to be that of a human being, whose height was twelve feet. The head through the temple was twelve inches, and the circumference forty inches, The ribs were being nearly four feet long and one and three quarter inches wide. The thigh bones were  more than thirty inches long, and large in proportion. When the earth was removed from the ribs stood up high enough to enable a man to crawl in and explore the interior skeleton, turn around and come  Some of the bones out with ease. The first Joint of the great toe, above the nail, was three inches long, and the entire foot eighteen inches in length.  The skeleton lay on its face, twenty feet below the surface of the ground and the toes imbedded in the earth, indicating that the body either fell or was placed there when the ground was soft. The left arm passed around backward, the hand resting on the spinal column, while the right arm was stretched out to the front and right. Some of the bones crumbled on exposure to the air, but many good specimens were preserved and are now on exhibition at Barnard.  Medical men are much interested.  The skeleton is generally pronounced as a valuable relic of the prehistoric race

8-10 Foot Giant Human Skeletons found in Arkansas Burial Mound



Evening Telegraph, September 15, 1870, 
A Giant Race-The Indian Mound Chickasawba-Human Skeletons Eight and Ten Feet in Height
Relics of a Former Race"Two miles west of Barfield Point, in Arkansas county, Ark., on the east bank of the lovely stream called Pemiscot river, stands an Indian mound, some twenty-five feet high and about an acre in area at the top.  The mound derives its name from Chickasawba, a chief of the Shawnee tribe, who lived, died and was buried there. This chief was one of the last race of hunters who lived in that beautiful region and who once peopled it quite thickly...

Aunt Kitty Williams, who now resides there, relates that Chickasawba would frequentlybring in for sale at one time as much as twenty gallons of pure honey in deerskins bags slung to his back. He was always a friend to the whites, a man of gigantic stature and herculean strength...He was buried at the foot of the mound on which he had lived, by his tribe, most of whom departed for the Nation immediately after performing his funeral rites...

Chickasawba was perfectly honest and the best informed chief of his tribe....A number of years ago, making an excavation into or near the foot of Chickasawba's mound, a portion of a Gigantic human skeleton was found. The men who were digging, becoming interested, unearthed the entire skeleton and from measurements given us by reliable parties the frame of the man towhom it belonged could not have been less than eight or nine feet in height. Under the skull, which slipped easily over the head of our informant (who, we will here state, is one of our best citizens), was found a peculiarly shaped earthen jar, resembling nothing in the way of Indian pottery which has before been seen by them. It was exactly the shape of the round-bodied, long necked carafes or water-decanters, a specimen of which may be seen on Gaston's dining table.

Ax Belonging to a Human Giant Discovered in West Virginia

Ax Belonging to a Human Giant Discovered in West Virginia



West Virginia Historical Magazine, Volume-2-1902
Giant's Axe
Charleston, West Virginia., March 17, 1902
Dear Mr. Ladley,
    Some years ago when Colonel Ben Smith mound was opened by Professor Norris, of the Smithsonian, he found the skeleton of a giant, which measured seven feet eight inches in length.
     This occurred about fifteen years ago.  Now comes the sequel.  A few days ago Joe Fister was ploughing near the mound an unearthed a stone ax.  The ax is of granite, beautifully made and well preserved.  It weighs seven pounds eight ounces.  The largest ever found here.
     Dr. J. N. Mahan brought this ax, and has it in his possession.  Could this have been the giant's ax?
   Can't you get some of your correspondents to give an article on Indian axes, & c.
 Very Truly Yours,
Robert Douglas Roller

9000 Year Old Northern European Mummies of Nevada and California

9000 Year Old Northern European Mummies of Nevada and California

   Mummified human remains have been discovered in eastern California and Nevada. The remains in Nevada are from Lovelock Cave.DNA results of the Nevada skulls show they originated from Norway. The  Piaute Indian has a legend of  red haired giants that once inhabited these same regions.




A giant mummified woman who was 6 feet 8 inches tall that was discovered in the Yosemite Park in California. Are these the same people?

Giant Human Nephilim Mummified Remains Uncovered in California

Giant Human Nephilim Mummified Remains Uncovered in California



The World, October 7, 1895


BIGGEST GIANT EVER KNOWN

Nine Feet High and Probably a California Indian

Measurement Well Authenticated

Other Big Men and Women of Fact and Fable Who Are Famous Types if Giantism


The corpse of the biggest man that ever lived has been dug up near San Diego California. At all events, there is no satisfactory read in the ancient or modern history of any human being nearly so tall. The mummy-for in such a condition the remains were found is that of a person would have been about nine feet high in life. This makes allowances for the shrinkage, which may be pretty closely calculated.

As to the accuracy of the estimate, there can no question, as the cadaver has been carefully inspected and measured by Prof. Thomas Wilson, Curator of the Department of Prehistoric Anthropology in the Smithsonian Institution, and by other scientists. The tapeline even now registers the length from heel to top of the head at eight feet four inches.

The mummy is that of an Indian and is almost certainly prehistoric, though its age cannot be determined with any sort of accuracy. Historical records of the part of California where it was found go back for at least 250 years, and they make no mention of any man of gigantic stature. How much older the body may be must be left open to conjecture. Its preservation, its preservation is no matter of surprise, in that arid region, the atmospheric conditions are such that a corpse buried in the dry season might very well become perfectly desiccated before the arrival of the rains, and thus be rendered permanently proof against decay.

The body was found in a cave by a party of prospectors. Over the head are the remnants of a leather hood. The man was well advanced in years.

It has been stated that the man must have surpassed in height any giant of whom there is a historical record. This is unquestionably true so far as the last two centuries are concerned, and accounts of older dates are not well authenticated. Indeed they grow more and more apocryphal as distant in time increases.



This is the actual photo that was used in the newspaper article.  Note how the mummy's arms are folded and how the man on the right is mimicking the pose.  Unfortunately, the article mentions the Smithsonian which means the giant has been lost or destroyed.  
It is also important to note the symmetry of the mummy, whose gigantic size does not appear to be the result of Gigantism or any other of the physical dysfunction that archaeologists immediately hypothesize.
