I
lived in southern California in 1975-1987. One night I watched a local TV
report about the remains of giants discovered on Catalina island (just off the
coast of L.A.) in the late 19th century. They were 7 to 9 feet tall, with red
hair and had a double set of teeth. Their skulls were up to 6 times larger than
a normal human skull.
In the
1800s, the remains of a similar giant was found on Santa Rosa Island, another
coastal island near Santa Barbara. He also had a double row of teeth.
It is
one of the many items of weirdness that has found a permanent home in my
cranial data base.
Surprise,
surprise -- these ancient giants are found in many places globally.
In
1833, near San Luis Obispo, California, soldiers were digging a gunpowder pit
and discovered the skeleton of a man 12 feet tall, surrounded by stone axes,
carved shells and blocks containing numerous unknown symbols. He had a double
row of upper and lower teeth.
In
1883, near Mandan, North Dakota, a 100-acre cemetery was discovered filled with
bones of a race of giant humans.
In
1888, in St. Paul, Minnesota, seven skeletons were discovered, 7 to 8 feet
tall.
In
1891, near Crittenden, Arizona, a 12-foot giant skeleton was unearthed, along
with a huge stone coffin which contained a carving indicating the man had six
toes.
In
1898, two brothers, H. Flagler Cowden and Charles C. Cowden, were scientists
doing an archeological dig in Death Valley. They uncovered the fossilized
remains of a human-like female, 7.5 feet tall. Her canine teeth were twice as
long as a modern human. They also found remains of prehistoric camels and an
elephant-like creature with four tusks.
In
1911, an 8-foot mummy with red hair was discovered in Lovelock Cave,
California.
In
1931, near lovelock, Nevada, several huge skeletons were found in the Humboldt
lake bed. An 8.5 foot skeleton was wrapped in a gum-covered fabric similar to
an Egyptian mummy. Another skeleton was almost 10 feet tall.
In
1932, the Supervisor of the Lincoln National Park in White Sands, New Mexico,
found human tracks (which included human instep imprint) in gypsum rock, 22
inches long and 10 inches wide.
In
1947, a retired doctor from Ohio discovered several mummified bodies, 8 to 9
feet tall, in caverns in the desert region south of Death Valley. They were
dressed in medium length jackets and trousers extending slightly below the
knees. The texture of the material was made from an animal skin unknown today.
Also discovered within the cavern complex were household utensils and stoves which
apparently cooked by radio waves. According to an Associated Press account of
this discovery, the doctor claimed that in one of the caverns "was the
ritual hall of the ancient people, together with devices and markings similar
to those now used by the Masonic Order."
In
1965, a perfectly preserved skeleton was found under a rock ledge along Holly
Creek, Kentucky. It measured 8 feet, 9 inches in length, with long arms, huge
hands and the skull was 30 inches in circumference..
This
is just a small sampling of giants roaming the earth in ancient times.
Numerous
Native American legends also speak of these giants and generally considered
them hostile enemies. For example, the Sioux Indians told tales to Buffalo Bill
Cody about how these ancient giants would run down the buffalo.
Skeletons
of giant size, 7 to 10 feet, have also been found in Spain, France, Italy,
Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel and the Caucasus Mountain region.
The
true history of Planet Earth is fascinating, complex and largely unknown.
But
that's okay because too much knowledge can cause the brain to explode.
