Eight Foot Giant's Tomb Disturbed in Ross County and The Earthbound Spirits Are Angry

Eight Foot Giant's Tomb Disturbed in Ross County and The Earthbound Spirits Are Angry



This is a photograph of the burial mound near Londonderry, Ohio in Ross County where the eight foot skeleton was removed.  At many of these giant's tombs there is an "Anger' in the air that is a bit unsettling. Since the spirits of the giants are earth bound they are still at these sites, despite their skeletal remains being stolen. At sites like this there is an energy being conveyed to 'get the hell out.'


The Washington Post, December 4, 1898 
     A skeleton was removed from this mound that was 8 feet long. The bones were further described as "massive' and the skull was a third larger than  a modern skull.


On the left is a photo I took for "The Nephilim Chronicles: A Travel Guide to the Ancient Ruins in the Ohio Valley," the mound is much reduced from the excavation as seen by an earlier photo on the right.

Extensive Burial Ground Described below Stone Walls of Mt. Carbon, West Virginia

Extensive Burial Ground Described below Stone Walls of Mt. Carbon, West Virginia



Parts of the stone walls atop of Mt. Carbon are still visible. An extensive burial ground was discovered at the bottom of the Mountain along the Kanawha River.

History and Mystery of the Kanawha Valley, 1898 

 This wall, for two miles or more, faces the river on the front end of the mountain, which is very steep and difficult of ascent, runs up the creek along the bench, thence through a low gap in the ridge to the corresponding bench on the other side of the ridge, facing the other creek, and back again to the river front; in all, some seven or eight miles in circuit; of an irregularly, elliptical shape; with a cross wall dividing the enclosure into two.
    The wall was, originally, six to seven feet in height, and nearly as wide at the base; but, from its great age, and partial disintegration of the stones, most of it has tumbled down; forming — as it were — a winnow of stones on the site of the original wall. Near the center of the enclosure are the remains of what are supposed to have been two round towers, probably twenty or more feet high, and twenty feet in diameter; these, like the walls, are now in ruins. It is difficult to even to conjecture the purpose and use of this curious work, and at such a place. There is, within the enclosure, one spring; a small, but ever flowing stream of water. Along the riverfront, at the base of the mountain, is an extensive burying ground. The mode of burial was peculiar and entirely different from that of the whites, the Indians or the Mound Builders. The bodies were deposited about four feet underground, horizontal from the hips down, and at an angle of about 30° from the waist up, and all facing. the cast.
   This is a significant fact and points strongly to the idea that they may have been sun-worshippers or descended from sun-worshippers. Captain Page carefully examined a number of these skeletons, measuring the bones and facial angles of the skulls, and found that they conformed much more nearly to the white race than to the Indian. There was a pile of stones over each grave, but below the surface; there was nothing on the surface to indicate the existence of a grave. Query? May not these stone piles, and the whole valley thereabout, have been covered by the deposits of the successive floods in the river? just as the Nile Valley is known to be raised two or three inches in a century by the successive annual overflows of the Nile? If this suggestion should be well founded, it indicates that a very long time has elapsed since these graves were made, as the Kanawha does not, like the Nile, overflow its banks every year — sometimes not for many years.

Neanderthal Hybrid Skulls With European DNA Unearthed in Florida Mound


Neanderthal Hybrid Skulls With European DNA Unearthed in Florida Mound


   The skull unearthed at Waldo, Florida is identical to those found at the Windover, Florida site that were determined to have European DNA
Exploration of a mound near Waldo, Fla.:
The small narrow, retreating frontal, prominent parietal protuberances, rather protuberant occipital, which was not in the least compressed, the well defined supraciliary ridges, and the superior border of the orbits, presenting a quadrilateral outline, were also particularly noticed. 
   In opening a burial-mound at Cade’s Pond, a small body of water situated about two miles northeastward of Santa Fé Lake, Fla., the writer found two instances of cremation, in each of which the skull of the subject, which was unconsumed, was used as the depository of his ashes. The mound contained besides a large number of human burials, the bones being much decayed. With them were deposited a great number of vessels of pottery, many of which are painted in brilliant colors, chiefly red, yellow, and brown, and some of them ornamented with indented patterns, displaying not a little skill in the ceramic art, though they are reduced to fragments. The first of the skulls referred to was exhumed at a depth of 2½ feet. It rested on its apex (base uppermost), and was filled with fragments of half incinerated human bones, mingled with dark-colored dust, and the sand which invariably sifts into crania under such circumstances. Immediately beneath the skull lay the greater part of a human tibia, presenting the peculiar compression known as a platycnemism to the degree of affording a latitudinal index of .512; while beneath and surrounding it lay the fragments of a large number of human bones, probably constituting an entire individual. In the second instance of this peculiar mode in cremation, the cranium was discovered on nearly the opposite side of the mound, at a depth of 2 feet, and, like the former, resting on its apex. It was filled with a black mass—the residuum of burnt human bones mingled with sand. At three feet to the eastward lay the shaft of a flattened tibia, which presents the longitudinal index of .527. Both the skulls were free from all action of fire, and though subsequently crumbling to pieces on their removal, the writer had opportunity to observe their strong resemblance to the small, orthocephalic crania which he had exhumed from mounds in Michigan. The same resemblance was perceptible in the other cranium belonging to this mound. The small narrow, retreating frontal, prominent parietal protuberances, rather protuberant occipital, which was 
not in the least compressed, the well defined supraciliary ridges, and the superior border of the orbits, presenting a quadrilateral outline, were also particularly noticed. 



     The lower facial bones, including the maxillaries, were wanting. On consulting such works as are accessible to him, the writer finds no mention of any similar relics having been discovered in mounds in Florida, or elsewhere. For further particulars reference may be had to a paper on the subject read before the Saint Louis meeting of the American Association, August, 1878.
