Is This the Martindale, California Nephilim Mummy?

Is This the Martindale, California Nephilim Mummy?





Tracking the history of the mummy is difficult, but this is the fragmented timeline I have been able to put together. Smiths are photographed with the mummy in the late 1960s.

The original find was described in the 19th century: The giant mummy was not an isolated find. In 1885 in California's Yosemite Valley, A party of miners headed by Mr. G. F. Martindale noticed a wall of stones on a rock face that did not appear to be of natural origin. As they removed the rock wall, they came upon another stone wall that was described as being done by someone skilled in Masonry. They described the joints between the rocks as being a uniform 1/8 of an inch in thickness. "As pretty as any wall on any building I have ever seen,” is how one of the miners described it. Upon entering the stone walled tomb, they discovered a large mummified corpse placed on a carved ledge in the cave. The mummified remains were that of a woman who measured 6 feet, 8 inches in length. The corpse was wrapped in what appeared to be animal skins. The miners removed parts of the animal skins to view the corpse and found it to be that of a woman holding a child to her breast.

At an unknown date the mummy is placed in the State Historical Society Museum in Topeka, Kansas.
1940's - Smith said he purchased the mummies from a Mrs. Miller in Kansas and leased them to a guy named, Fleming who owned a traveling carnival.
1940s Fleming is known to have the mummy until at least 1948.
1968 – After being missing for over 20 years the mummy resurfaces in a warehouse in Texas where it is reclaimed by the Smith family.
1992 – Smith's health is failing and a Dr. Cartmel purchaes the mummy where it is later sold the the Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum in Orlando, Florida in 1998.

There are various stories of how the mummy ended up in Arizona. They are all based on the fact that the mummy is a hoax. But, it has to be a hoax or the NAGPRA laws would snatch it up and it would never be seen again.

Is This the Mothman Demon?

Is This the Mothman Demon




This photo was taken across the Ohio River from the noted home of the Mothman at Point Pleasant, West Virginia. After taking this photo a voice came from in front of me saying "Nice evening isn't it?"  I was alone in this remote cemetery and didn't have any explanation for the origin of the voice.
A friend pointed out this demonic face. Was this demonic face the demon Pazuzu?  Check out this evidence https://www.mysteriesofancientamerica.com/2018/03/mothman-is-babylonian-demon-pazuzu.html
    There were also hieroglyphs four at Point Peninsula of an unknown ancient origin.  Was this a warning about the Mothman or Pazuzu? https://www.mysteriesofancientamerica.com/2018/12/hieroglyphs-found-at-point-pleasant.html

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
