     While in the South during the winter of 1848, pursuing the study and collecting specimens of ornithology, I was impelled by curiosity to examine a mound of moderate size situated on the southern portion of Amelia Island, Florida, being kindly furnished with colored laborers, and aided by Dr. R. Harrison.

   We commenced the examination by cutting a trench 4 feet wide directly through the center, from the apex to the base, and then another trench at right angles to the former. The excavation revealed a number of relics, and the mode of burial of the mound builders. They must have commenced by digging into the surface of the ground about 2 feet, then, partially filling the excavation with oyster shells, they placed their dead on these in a sitting posture, their legs bent under them, with their faces to the east, and their arms crossed upon the breast, and next spread over them a stratum of earth..

   confirmation of the crania found in this mound appears to differ somewhat from that of the present Indians…

   The teeth of many crania of this mound were, without exceptions, in a perfect state of preservation, the vitrified enamel of these organs being capable of resisting exposure for centuries… Not one carious tooth was found among the hundreds in the mound. Many were entire in the lower jaw, the whole compactly and firmly set. In some the second set was observed, while one jaw had evident signs of a third set, a nucleus of a tooth being seen beneath the neck of a tooth of a very old jaw…

   Pursuing my investigations and excavating farther toward the southeast face of the mound, I came upon the largest sized stone ax I have ever seen or that had ever been found in that section of the country. Close to it was the largest and most perfect cranium of the mound, not crushed by pressure of the earth, complete in its form, quite dry, and no sand in its cavity… contiguous to this was nearly a quart of red ochre, and quite the same quantity of what seemed to be pulverized charcoal, as materials of war paint. Anticipating a perfect specimen in this skull, I was doomed to disappointment, for, after taking it out of the earth and setting it up so that I could view the fleshless face of this gigantic savage, in the space of two hours it crumbled to pieces, except small portions. According to the measurements of the bones of this skeleton its height must have been quite seven feet.

Coal was freely diffused throughout the mound, which contained but little pottery. Two stone hatchets were found, and a small stone ax, in addition to the large one described. This instrument bore evident marks of fire.

There is one large mound around on the eastern end of Amelia Island, Florida, and two mounds on the central portion of Cumberland Island, Georgia, likewise, most of the Islands on that coast, from which could be obtained large collections of materials for the advancement of ethnological science.”

     Remains of what is believed to have been a prehistoric race of American giants were discovered not long ago by divers who descended to the bottom of Silver Springs, near Ocala, Fla. The human skeletons found in a submerged burial chamber were so large that persons who viewed them expressed the belief that the men of the primitive race attained a height of seven feet. Along with the bones, said to have lain undisturbed for 2,500 years, were the discovered many tools, weapons, and ornaments. Among the finds were clay pots and idols, bone needles, flint arrowheads, and fragments of jewelry.

 

Windover, Florida Skeletons (5,000 B.C.) DNA Determined to Be European According to Dr. Jospeh Lorenze from the Coriell Institute of Medical Research

This Windover skull was the only one out of 168 to be photographed, because brain tissue was extracted.  Photos of the skulls were omitted from the archaeological reports because that are identical to those of the European Maritime Archaic (7,000 B.C. - 2,000 B.C).  Subsequently the DNA results were European. The beetle browed skulls of the Windover people is not an isolated case in Florida. Look at the photo of this Neanderthal looking skull discovered  www.nephilimgiants.net : Beetle-Browed Giants Uncovered at Silver Springs, Florida

    Anyone who watches shows like "Bones" knows that the first analysis of skeletal remains is the racial I.D and the age that can be determined from the skull shape, sutures and teeth. All of this information was omitted from the archaeological report at the Windover archaeological site, near Cape Canaveral, Florida that yielded 168 well preserved bog skeletons.  The archaeological investigation was headed by Glen H. Doran , former chair of the FSU Anthropology Department.  In 2002, five years after the project was finished, he publishes, a 300-page report on the site, "Windover Multidisciplinary Investigations of an Early Archaic Florida Cemetery." In the report were pictures of all of the tools and fabrics found with the burials along with single photos of every tooth of all 168 people discovered at the site.  Hidden was the exact size of the individual skeletons.  We do know that they were "dramatically taller than historic Indians in that area." So, how tall is that? This isn't relevant to the conclusion. Stranger was that there were no pictures of the skulls. 
     DNA studies were conducted on the skeletons, and this too was mired in vagueness that would make a seasoned politician proud.  Professor Doran wrote:  
     “Since the haplogroup frequency distribution of the prehistoric Windover population is unlike that of any known surviving or prehistoric group, they may represent the only demonstrated instance of the recent extinction of a group of Native Americans with no close surviving relatives.” 
   In other words, these are not Native American, even though he calls them that.  Keep in mind that the archaeologists have DNA samples from all known Indiana tribes, and yet, didn't match any of them. A lost tribe? Ancient Atlanteans? Well, if they're not Native Americans, then who could they be?
   Dr. Jospeh Lorenze from the Coriell Institute of Medical Research was doing the DNA study. Instead of giving up or using the archaeologists favorite phrase for subject matter that doesn't fit in their paradigm, "problematical," he dared to look at European DNA sequences and said:
    “I went back to the screen, and I looked at the sequences again, the first person’s DNA it looked European. When I looked at the second one it looked European. When I looked at the third, fourth and fifth it was slightly different from the first two but they looked European.”

    This mound was about 15 feet in height, and 30 feet in diameter at the base, flattened and worn by attrition for ages; there having been two growths of live oak upon it, as stated by an old Spanish inhabitant of the place. The soil composing the mound was of a light sandy, yellowish loam.

     Smyrna Daily News Jan. 5, 1917

That human beings inhabited the North American continent more than 125,000 years ago has been conclusively proven through a recent discovery in this state by E. H. Sellards, state geologist, and Prof. Oliver P. Hay who have made a study of the fossils. Though their opinions are not fully concurred in by other scientists, they are positive that their researches have been thorough and there is no room for a mistake.

      The discovery was made several months ago, and though nothing of a definite nature had been given out until recently, it is now officially stated that human bones intermingled with those of the mastodon, saber tooth tiger, and many other extinct animals that formerly ranged this hemisphere have been found. The deposit was found near Vero.

    That the human beings were of enormous size is evidenced by the bones. It is thought that some were ten or twelve feet in height. Some excellent specimens of the skeleton of these gigantic men have been found, some of them locked in the deadly embrace of great animals, with strange weapons of bone clutched in skeleton hands a foot long.

 

 

Giant Human Nine Foot Skeletons Noted in Florida's Ancient Shell Mounds

Numerous giant human skeletons have been discovered in Florida, some exceeding 9 feet in height. Shell mounds of Florida built by a prehistoric race of giants. Skeletons found in these mounds were all buried facing eastward in sitting positions. Each was 7 to 8 feet tall.

 Strange Ancient Skulls of Giants Discovered in Southern Florida

Human 8 Foot Giants Buried in Florida
Fishermen Tell of Humans, 8 Feet Long Buried in Florida
    Miami, Florida., June 9, – tale of human skeletons eight feet long embedded in the sand of an uninhabited little island off of the southern tip of the Florida mainland was brought here today by three fishermen. They exhibited a piece of one skull containing six teeth. E. M. Miller, zoologist at the University of Miami, said the mandible was that of a man and was probably seven hundred years old.
     It is entirely probable that this find might be important,” he commented, “but i could not tell anything about it unless I had the measurements or additional information.”
     The men said the skulls were unusually thick, the jaw protruded, and the eye sockets were high in the head.

 

 Giant Human Skeletons are Discovered in New Smyrna, Florida 

Shell mounds are found the extent of the Florida shores.  Many of these shell mounds contained the giant remains of an ancient race.

The Palm Beach Post, October 2, 1934
    The continual wash of the Atlantic ocean cutting through a narrow coastal island about one mile south of St. Lucie Inlet has exposed the bones of men evidently laid to rest hundreds of years ago, says the Fort Pierce News-Tribune. Skeletons of nine individuals were discovered, some in the shallow waters of the inlet and others beneath the nearby sand. All of the men were unusually tall and must have been sturdy giants in their day. One jaw bone taken from the site measured eight and a half inches from the joint of the jaw to where it hinged on the skull. One shin bone was almost twice the length of the ordinary shin bone of today.

 Nine Foot Giant Human Skeleton Discovered in a Shell Mound at the End of the Seminole Bridge in St. Petersburg, Florida

Journal Gazette, January 20, 1922

RACE OF GIANTS ONCE INHABITED THE FLORIDA PENINSULA
Must have Been Nine Feet Tall
St. Petersburg, Florida
     That the shell mounds at the end of the Seminole bridge closest to it. Petersburg if dug into would reveal skeletons of a tribe of men about which little is known is the opinion of Prof. J. H. Pratt of Southland Seminary, who yesterday visited the mounds and dug into a few.  Skull and bones taken from them several weeks ago by a part of the men were shown to Prof. Pratt and it is probable that at a later date a thorough excavation will be made in search of traces of a race of people yet little heard of.
    Yesterday on account of poor facilities for excavating, little digging was done, the trip being made primarily to allow the professor to establish for himself whether the means were worth going into.  He is confident that where the giant piles of shell on this side of the Bayou spanned the Seminole bridge was once the site of an Indian village of any size. More giants in Florida here
    Some time ago when the shell was being taken from one of the mounds for road work, two complete skeletons were found beside a number of separate bones. One of there a leg bone was two feet and some inches in length.  Comparing this length with the length of the bone of the leg of a man six feet tall would establish the fact that the race of Indians who lived in these parts probably thousands of years ago were giants as a man would have to be over nine feet tall to have a leg bone two feet long.  This fact coupled with the extraordinary size of some of the skulls dug up brings about the assumption the race of abnormally large people inhabited the peninsula.
      Numerous shell mounds on the Pinellas peninsula have been opened and many treasures of the Indian days have been unearthed.  Around St. Petersburg there are a number of  such mounds, many of which have been opened a number of times.

Giant Human Skeletons Unearthed in Tampa Bay, Florida.

    The remains described in the following article are likely from the Maritime Archaic peoples who had spread the extent of the North American continent.  Similarly sized skeletons are found in shell mounds on the Pacific, Atlantic and Gulf regions.  From 5000 -2000 B.C.  would be a closer estimate of the age of the burials. 

Many burial mounds can still be found in the Tampa Florida area.

GIANT INDIAN SKELETONS
     Tampa, Fla. (AP).- Giant Indians who roamed Florida swamps 500 years or more, living on shell foods which they cracked with their teeth, is a picture unfolded by archaeologists who have delved into a burial ground on a gulf island near here.
     The skeletons were discovered in a small section of land, where a lone fisherman has lived for years.  Scientists estimated the bones are at least 500 years old and are the remains of a tribe known as the Caribs, natives of the West Indies.  They are believed to have inhabited the state and adjacent islands before the arrival of the Spanish in Florida.
    The skulls are larger than those of current history, battered and crused, indicated tribal battles.  The jaw and teeth were unusually large.  Likewise are the body bones, indicating the Indians of the past ages were veritiaqble giants in comparison with those of  today.
     Mounds similar to the one in which the bones were unearthed are common in the state.  The bones have been sent to the Smithsonian Institution for further examination.
