Large Hopewell Sioux Skeleton Found Within a Missouri Stone Vault

History of Boone County, Missouri 1882

   Along Roche Creek, starting from Perche Church and following the creek down about two miles, are numerous mounds, the work, undoubtedly, of the famed mound builders. These mounds are from three to six feet in height, and, on an average, are from 100 to 200 yards apart. They number about twenty well-defined specimens. Dr. Davis, of Sturgeon, and Wm. Powell opened one of these mounds on the farm of the latter. In the center they found a perfect vault, the roof of which was covered with stones. In this vault lay a large skeleton. It measured seven inches across the forehead and the size of the of the other bones were in proportion. More on Missouri's giants

Eight Feet in Height Ancient Warriors are Discovered in Spring Valley, Ohio

Cape Giradeau Democrat, June 20, 1896
    Some boys, while playing on Barrett's Mound, in the village of Spring Valley, southwest of here, discovered a number of human bones that had been unearthed by the upheaval of a tree during a wind-storm. Excavations were made and four bodies were found resting in the ground where the tree had stood. All had been buried with heads to the east, indicating reverence for the sun, and one of them was found in a reclining position.  One had been covered in mussels shells, but on being exposed to the air the shell crumbled to dust.
      The skeletons indicate a race of people close to eight feet in height and from relics and other indications were apparently warriors and belonged to some prehistoric race. The skeletons were viewed by an immense throng of people. When an attempt was made to move them they fell to pieces. Further excavations will be made.
