Giant Human Remains*

- From records and sources all over the world (by John Williams)

Giant Skeletons:

In his book, The Natural and Aboriginal History of Tennessee, author John
Haywood describes "very large" bones in stone graves found in Williamson
County, Tennessee, in 1821. In White County, Tennessee, an "ancient
fortification" contained skeletons of gigantic stature averaging at least 7
feet in length.


Giant skeletons were found in the mid-1800s near Rutland and Rodman, New
York. J.N. DeHart, M.D. found vertebrae "larger than those of the present
type" in Wisconsin mounds in 1876. W.H.R. Lykins uncovered skull bones "of
great size and thickness" in mounds of Kansas City area in 1877.


George W. Hill, M.D., dug out a skeleton "of unusual size" in a mound of
Ashland County, Ohio. In 1879, a nine-foot, eight-inch skeleton was
excavated from a mound near Brewersville, Indiana (Indianapolis News, Nov 10,
1975).


A six foot, six inch skeleton was found in a Utah mound. This was at least a
foot taller than the average Indian height in the area, and these natives-
what few there were of them -were not mound builders.


"A skeleton which is reported to have been of enormous dimensions" was found
in a clay coffin, with a sandstone slab containing hieroglyphics, during
mound explorations by a Dr Everhart near Zanesville, Ohio. (American
Antiquarian, v3, 1880, pg61).


Ten skeletons "of both sexes and of gigantic size" were taken from a mound
at Warren, Minnesota, 1883. (St. Paul Pioneer Press, May 23, 1883)
A skeleton 7 feet 6 inches long was found in a massive stone structure that
was likened to a temple chamber within a mound in Kanawha County, West
Virginia, in 1884. (American Antiquarian, v6, 1884 133f. Cyrus Thomas,
Report on Mound Explorations of the Bureau of Ethnology, 12th Annual Report,
Smithsonian Bureau of Ethnology, 1890-91).


A large mound near Gasterville, Pennsylvania, contained a vault in which was
found a skeleton measuring 7 feet 2 inches. Inscriptions were carved on the
vault. (American Antiquarian, v7, 1885, 52f).


In 1885, miners discovered the mummified remains of woman measuring 6 feet 8
inches tall holding an infant. The mummies were found in a cave behind a
wall of rock in the Yosemite Valley.


In Minnesota, 1888, were discovered remains of seven skeletons 7 to 8 feet
tall. (St. Paul Pioneer Press, June 29, 1888).


A mound near Toledo, Ohio, held 20 skeletons, seated and facing east with
jaws and teeth "twice as large as those of present day people," and besides
each was a large bowl with "curiously wrought hieroglyphic figures."
(Chicago Record, Oct. 24, 1895; cited by Ron G. Dobbins, NEARA Journal, v13,
fall 1978).


The skeleton of a huge man was uncovered at the Beckley farm, Lake Koronis,
Minnesota; while at Moose Island and Pine City, bones of other giants came
to light. (St. Paul Globe, Aug. 12, 1896).


In 1911, several red-haired mummies ranging from 6 and a half feet to 8 feet
tall were discovered in a cave in Lovelock, Nevada.
In February and June of 1931, large skeletons were found in the Humboldt
lake bed near Lovelock, Nevada. The first of these two skeletons found
measured 8 1/2 feet tall and appeared to have been wrapped in a gum-covered
fabric similiar to the Egyptian manner. The second skeleton was almost 10
feet long. (Review - Miner, June 19, 1931).


A 7 foot 7 inch skeleton was reported to have been found on the Friedman
ranch, near Lovelock, Nevada, in 1939.(Review - Miner, Sept. 29, 1939)
In 1965, a skeleton measuring 8 feet 9 inches was found buried under a rock
ledge along the Holly Creek in east-central Kentucky.
 
Also there is the Cahokia , or called Monks Mound , an Historic Site , bulit around 950-1100CE , near Collinsville , Illinois

And I repeat , an Historic Site
 
All hearsay articles from the late 1800s.

The first evidence I looked at was evidence of giant animals, not people. I didn't bother with it after that. This is the work of the Religious Right, who have learned that the easiest way to keep the blinders on their sheep is to keep lying to them about what science actually teaches, to demonize academics and make it look like people who bust their ass to get a decent education are just robots.

You're promoting the same bullshit which is why most folks assume you're just another religious crank.

Where was this " giant animal " stuff you read ?

The thing is I'm the farthest point from religion you can get , look up my history of posts

The blinders are on you really , since you don't have the decency to look at all the sites I've given

You can't fact check?

Take the link you first posted and find where they got their evidence. Go to the National Geographic link they used for their evidence.
 
Just maybe the "giants" were real once, BUT even hypothically. What this would mean or where it could lead. Why would taller than avarage males or female species be around? And going back to River have any been dated?

Wikipedia has a page about a skeleton unearthed in France dating from the Bronze Age, which is about 3m tall, as an actual archeological find (i.e. not a hoax based only on photos).
Ho hum.

But specifically try North American or American giants

Which is what the topic of my thread was about

I don't care about the rest of the world , just about America

What's the problem?
There was at least one tribe of "giant" Native Americans.
The Karankawa Tribe. There could have been others.
They were noted as being very tall. Many six to seven feet tall.
They were wiped out by disease in the 19th century, which is why they are not around today.
If they still existed the above graph would have to move to the right,
and the US basketball team would probably be dominated by Karankawans.



Fraggle would like them.
They were a tribe who kept dogs.
It is not recorded how tall their dogs were.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karankawa_people

The tallest men today live in the Sudan.
The Nilotic peoples of Sudan such as the Shilluk and Dinka have been described as some of the tallest in the world. Dinka Ruweng males investigated by Roberts in 1953–54 were on average 1.813 m tall, and Shilluk males averaged 1.826 m.
That's an average of 5'11"
