Grave Creek, West Virginia Museum Archaeologist Alters Lithograph of Giant Skeleton in the Museum

 Grave Creek, West Virginia Museum Archaeologist Alters Lithograph of Giant Skeleton in the Museum


This is the ai version from the original lithograph that was drawn in the 1830s when the giant was displayed in the museum that was actually within the Grave Creek Mound.

The original lithograph

The scum archaeologists at the Grave Creek Museum altered the original so the skeleton is much smaller. This shows unequivocally that they are HIDING evidence!

The Desecration of Oneota Sioux Burials by Indiana (IPFW) Fort Wayne Archaeologists

 The Desecration of Oneota Sioux Burials at Strawtown, Indiana by (IPFW) Fort Wayne Archaeologists

"I would say in general," Sutter said, "I don't think anybody who has knowingly violated NAGPRA regulations should be permitted to work as an archaeologist at a minimum.”
More on the evidence that the Strawtown site was of Oneota Sioux Hopewell origins  www.nephilimgiants.net : Strawtown Hopewell Earthwork Determined to be Oneota Sioux in Central Indiana

The archaeological dig at Strawtown, Indiana, was extensive, leaving a wake of destruction on this ancient Oneota Sioux burial and earthwork complex. Archaeologists found a copper headdress at the site with skeletal remains that are diagnostic of Middle Woodland Oneota Sioux Hopewell dating 300 B.C. - 500 A.D.   Oneota Sioux Hopewell have been recognized across Indiana from the Mann Site in Posey County to the Porter County in northwest Indiana. I know of no skeletal remains that have been returned to the Oneota Sioux. If archaeologists recognized the Dakota Sioux as the builders of burial mounds and earthworks in Indiana, they would be forced to empty their vast collections of artifacts and skeletal remains.  
    In Indiana, the greatest threat to the ancient burial mounds and earthworks is the presence of university archaeologists. When will the government finally defund the universities?

These are excerpts from just one of the articles that detail the university archaeologists' crimes at Strawtown, Indiana. 



How a Native American burial site was desecrated in Hamilton County
County, university officials aggressively excavated ancient burial site at Strawtown Park, trampling on rights of tribes to protect their dead

Eternal unrest: How archaeologist, Hamilton County park officials defiled Native American graves (indystar.com)

"The first summer archaeologists began excavating a Native American burial ground at Strawtown Koteewi Park, they found a human jawbone.

The law was clear. They should have notified Native American tribes to allow them the opportunity to rebury their ancestor.

Instead, they studied, cataloged and boxed up the bone fragments. And for the next 10 years, Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne's archaeological team and the Hamilton County Parks & Recreation Department continued digging aggressively — never notifying tribal leaders.

"What happened is awful," Richard Sutter, the head of IPFW's anthropology department, told IndyStar. "It's inexcusable."


"Andrew Smith and Craig Arnold, two of McCullough’s assistant archaeologists, said they excavated entire structures, in many cases leaving nothing untouched. They dug so extensively that future archaeologists who might have new technology will not be able to reinvestigate certain sites. Procedure calls for no more than half of structures to be excavated and they took so many artifacts from the ground, it left little money for analysis."

"Karin Maloney, an archaeologist who worked as a history interpreter for the park from 2006 to 2012, said she told McCullough and Patterson the excavations were violating NAGRPA within a year of being hired."

They did not stop until they uncovered a skull. They found a copper plate beneath the skull, indicating a person of status.

"I would say in general," Sutter said, "I don't think anybody who has knowingly violated NAGPRA regulations should be permitted to work as an archaeologist at a minimum.”

Arnold and Smith began working with the tribes, a collaboration that ultimately led to a list of 90,000 items that were found in graves, near human remains or within sacred sites.

Each new revelation over the next several years — from the fact human bones and grave offerings had been excavated, to the discovery that thousands of children had participated in digs at grave sites — heightened the outrage of Strack and other tribal representatives.

"The idea that uninformed, untrained children were participating in the excavations, pushing dirt through screens, was unthinkable," Strack said. "That could be the decomposed remains of our ancestors."

By November 2012, three tribes had filed federal complaints.


Even then, they did not file a report with the NAGPRA office.

Instead, McCullough removed the pottery, which is now thought to be a burial vessel. A significant find, it was the first artifact to link an early Great Lakes culture called the Oneota to Central Indiana.

Ball State University Archaeologists Claim Mounds State Park North Henge is Aligned to the Equinox. - Not

 Ball State University Archaeologists Claim Mounds State Park North Henge is Aligned to the Equinox. - 

One henge and one earthwork have been found in Ohio that are aligned to the May 1 (Beltane) sunrise. Ball State University Archaeologists claim the North Henge at Mounds State Park is aligned to the Equinox sunrise. Did they not use a compass? In the History of Madison County, Indiana 1888, the north henge (Circle Mound) axis was measured at 67 degrees East. This is not true east, but north of east. This cannot align to the Equinox.  67 degrees is the May 1 (Beltane) sunrise.    

This Google Earth looking west into the gateway of the North Henge (Circle Mound). From the directional icon on the far right, you can see that the alignment is not true east. North of east at 67-degree alignment is Beltane May 1 sunrise. 

   The assumption of an equinox sunrise by Ball State archaeologists must have been done by dead reckoning.  Had they used a compass they would have known this is not aligned east. So much for the heralded Scientific Method. 

 In 2023 Mounds State Park welcomed people to join and witness the Equinox sunrise at the North Henge. Surprisingly, there were no photos. Wonder why? There were no posts to come to the fall equinox alignment either. 

   The May 1 alignment causes some trouble with archaeologists who don't believe in diffusion. The universities have doubled down with their belief that Native Americans were using the Pythagorean Theorem to build the geometric earthworks. The Pythagorean Theorem has been found and recognized by The Ohio History Connection and Ball State at Newark Ohio and Winchester, Indiana earthworks. 

I think the use of the word "Henge" to accurately describe the earthworks should be a clue as to whom really built them. 
   
MOUNDS STATE PARK, ANDERSON, INDIANA by Donald R. Cochran Beth K. McCord Illustrations by Aimee Smith Reports of Investigation 61 June 2001 Archaeological Resources Management Service Ball State University Muncie, Indiana 47306

  "Circle Mound Early drawings of the Circle Mound show it as long and narrow with rounded corners and curving sides. More recent maps show the enclosure as more rectangular with rounded corners. It measures 285' long and 225' wide. The ditch is about 30' wide and 5-6 feet deep, and the surrounding embankment varies between 4' and 6' in height. The platform is 148' long and 72' wide. The west end of the platform and a small area just to the left of the entrance are higher than the surrounding platform surface. Whether these higher areas represent artificial mounds is not currently known. The gateway is at the east end and the long axis of the enclosure is aligned due east and west. A park trail crosses the central platform and west wall of the enclosure. Two small mounds were situated on either side of the entrance and abutting the embankment. Both of these have been badly reduced in height by plowing as they were at the edge of a cultivated field. These small mounds were about 3feet high and 25 feet wide. The long axis of the enclosure lies on an east to west line. The sun would shine through the gateway and down the central platform at the equinox sunrise (September 21 and March 21). Sunset at these two dates would also fall on a line through the center of the enclosure and the gateway. The enclosure is also constructed in such a way that diagonal alignments through opposite corners mark sunset and sunrise alignments to the winter and summer solstice."

"The sun would shine," you never checked?

Who Built the Fort Ancient, Ohio Earthwork? Clam Shell Hoes? Give Me a Break.

  Who Built the Fort Ancient, Ohio Earthwork? Clam Shell Hoes? Give Me a Break

Fort Ancient Walls Consist of 553,000 Cubic Yards of Earth

20,000 Ton Trucks Lined Up Bumper to Bumper Would Stretch from Fort Ancient to Cleveland

Archaeologists Claim this was achieved with clam hoes. (ridiculous)

Only a few clam hoes uncovered at the Site

   Fort Ancient is Ohio's largest hilltop enclosure with over 3 miles of earthen walls that average about 12 feet in height, enclosing 126 acres of land. Words, maps or even photos don't relay the size and enormity of this site.  While it called a "fort" it was, in fact, a ceremonial center. It has many of the elements of the more geometric works in Ohio with parallel walls or sacred vias, solar and lunar alignments with other elements that are more unique. 
   A Woodhenge was recently discovered at the site. This type of structure was also found at the Stubbs geometric earthwork near there and another was found at Cahokia. Of course, this is a much more common find in Northern Germany and the British Isles. The daub houses that were constructed by the Ohio mound builders is also more reminiscent of Bronze Age Europe. According to archaeologists, later Native Americans who resided at the site lived in the more primitive wigwams.
    What one asks when looking at this massive site is, "why?" Why did they build it, for what purpose would they engage in such a monumental endeavor? For whatever reason, the explanations of how it was built by the archaeologists are even more puzzling. According to archaeologists, " Fort Ancient features 18, 000 feet of earthen walls built 2, 000 years ago by American Indians who used the shoulder blades of deer, split elk antler, clam shell hoes and digging sticks to dig the dirt. They then carried the soil in baskets holding 35 to 40 pounds. Portions of the walls were used in conjunction with the sun and moon to provide a calendar system for the peoples."
   Yes, it's a calendar, but the same result can be achieved with a stick in the ground.  There is something much more going on here. It is not my goal to unveil the secrets of Fort Ancient in this article and accompanying video, but to show that the current theories are ridiculous.

Oldest Burial Mounds in the Midwest in Newaygo County, Michigan Could Date as Early as 3,000 B.C.

Oldest Burial Mounds in the Midwest in Newaygo County, Michigan Could Date as Early as 3,000 B.C.




More burial mounds in Michigan. These burial mounds could be the oldest in the Midwest www.nephilimgiants.net : Visiting the Cass County, Michigan Giant's Burial Mound


    Two conical burial mounds are still visible in Newaygo County, Michigan despite being partially destroyed by university archaeologists. Charm stones, gouges, bone harpoons and copper implements were found within this mound along with a child buried with a dog.  Implements and burial types are associated with the earlier pre-woodland Archaic Cultures.  Similar artifacts and burials are associated with the Maritime Archaic. That could easily date them 3,000 B.C. or earlier.  
The Brewerton phase was formulated by William Ritchie in the 1930s dating as early as 3,000 B.C. According to Ritchie the distribution was chiefly N.Y. and southern Ontario. Evidence presented here proves that the Brewerton were further south and west than Ritchie believed. Associated with the Brewerton are winged bannerstones, polished gouges, adzes, celts, slate arrows and spears, plummets, bone awls gouges, mullers and shallow mortars. They also had contact with the “Copper Culture” and many times copper weapons are found within their burials. Cremations in sub-surface burial pits or skeletons placed in a sitting or spoked position was the most common type of burials, sometimes dogs also accompany the dead.
      In a paper called “Prehistoric Man on Martha’s Vineyard,” by James B. Richardson III, he reported a dog in a pit burial that was filled with shells and also included Brewerton points in adjoining shell mounds. This shows that there is an amount of gray area in classifying a site as a Laurentian Shell Mound or a Brewerton bu

Another burial mound at the site that has been partially destroyed by University of Michigan archaeologists.

Ancient Skulls from a California and Alabama Shell Mound May be of European Origin According to University Archaeologist

 

Ancient Skulls from a California and Alabama Shell Mound May be of European Origin According to University Archaeologist



Photos show a series of "primitive" looking skulls associated with the Maritime Archaic.  On the far left is the Penon woman who is one of the oldest skulls found in North America in 7000 BC.  The middle skull is from a shell mound in Alabama whose skeletal remains were described as "large."  To the right is a skull that was described as the "missing link," from Santa Barbara California. The long narrow skulls resemble those of Europeans more than those of the later Native American populations.

  In an article by the "Independent" December 2, 2002 

Does the Penon Women's skull prove that the first Americans came from Europe?"

     "Scientists from Liverpool's John Moores University and Oxford's Research Laboratory of Archaeology have dated the skull to about 13,000 years old, making it 2,000 years older than the previous record for the continent's oldest human remains.

   However, the most intriguing aspect of the skull is that it is long and narrow and typically Caucasian in appearance, like the heads of white, western Europeans today.
    Modern-day native Americans, however, have short, wide skulls that are typical of their Mongoloid ancestors who are known to have crossed into America from Asia on an ice-age land bridge that had formed across the Bering Strait."
   Silvia Gonzalez, a Mexican-born archaeologist working at John Moores University and the leader of the research team, accepted yesterday that her discovery lends weight to the highly contentious idea that the first Americans may have actually been Europeans.
  "At the moment it points to that as being likely. They were definitely not Mongoloid in appearance. They were from somewhere else. As to whether they were European, at this point in time we cannot say 'no'," Dr. Gonzalez said."

Hamilton County Parks Department Fined for Allowing IPFW Archaeologists to Desecrate and Steal Native American Remains

 

Hamilton County Parks Department Fined For Allowing IPFW Archaeologists to Desecrate and Steal Native American Remains





    Hamilton Parks Department has been fined $6,533 for allowing IPFW archaeologists to grave rob thousands of skeletal fragments from the Strwatown earthworks.  The site was likely constructed by the Oto Sioux but was brought to light by the Miami Indians who resided in Indiana in historic times.

Reported in the Indy Star by Chris Sikich, Nov. 13, 2017


"The first summer archaeologists began excavating a Native American burial ground at Strawtown Koteewi Park, they found a human jawbone.

"What happened is awful," Richard Sutter, the head of IPFW's anthropology department, told IndyStar. "It's inexcusable."
An IndyStar investigation found archaeologists and park officials ran roughshod over a federal law designed to protect Native American graves. Their actions not only compromised an important archaeological site, they further eroded the state’s already long-strained relationship with Native Americans."

Pennsylvania Archaeologist Uncovers Ancient Skeleton 7 feet 5 inches Tall

Giant skeletons with double rows of teeth discovered in Minnesota www.nephilimgiants.net : Giant Neanderthal Hybrids With Double Rows of Teeth Discovered in Minnesota

  

A Pennsylvania archaeologist uncovers forty-nine human giants.  The largest giant was 7 1/2 feet in length.  State archaeologists scoffed at the findings and theory that the state was once the home of a race of giants that were the builders of the burial mounds and earthworks in the Pennsylvania.

Archaeologists Aren't Wrong About Evolution; Just Stupid.

Archaeologists Aren't Wrong About Evolution; Just Stupid.




  I was recently corrected on a blog post about my use of the word, "Cro-Magnon."  The argument was that the intellectual elite at our universities no longer differentiated Cro-Magnon from modern men, really? The defintiion of Cro-Magnon is, 

   " An early form of modern human (Homo sapiens) inhabiting Europe in the late 
Paleolithic Period, from about 40,000 to 10,000 years ago,characterized by a broad
 face and tall stature."
   Not a little taller, a lot taller as confessed by, Formicola and Giannecchini's data revealed that "EUP [Early Upper Paleolithic] males are much taller (176.2 cm) and LUP [Late Upper Paleolithic] shorter (165.6 cm), with an average difference of 10.6 cm.
Similarly EUP females (162.9 cm) largely exceed LUP females (153.5 cm)." I think the jury is still out.
Early Modern Human Skull from Qazfeh Cave in Israel, still exhibiting Neanderthal skull traits that would persist for an other 100,000 years with a people known for their great height.
This Archaic type skull along with large height was most prevalent in the very place where Cro-Magnon was first  identified.

Find Old Graves
Skeletons of Giant Warriors Unearthed in France
Men who lived 25,000 Years Ago Believed to have Died Fighting-Arrow Found in Head of One.
  The discovery of 25,000 year- old graves containing well preserved skeletons of three prehistoric warriors has just been discovered at Solutre, a small village in the. [...] department of France, widely known for its prehistoric remains.
   The skeletons evidently belonged to extremely powerful men, as the smallest of the three measured six feet two inches while the tallest measured six feet nine inches. The shape of the skull is remarkable, the forehead is rather low. The sockets of the eye are square and of large dimensions; the jawbone is prominent and the jaws are powerful, and still contain well preserved teeth.

  It is the same type of  Archaic skulls that were found in great numbers in the burial mounds in the Ohio Valley.  

Montgomery County
The Daily Telegraph,  Jan 21, 1899
GIGANTIC BODY RECOVERED
   The body of a man, more gigantic than ever recorded in human history, has been unearthed in the Miami Valley, Ohio.
    The skeleton it is calculated, must have belonged to a man 8 feet 1 1/2 inches in height.  It was found within a half mile of Miamisburg in a locality which contains many relics of the mound builders.
    He is clearly a man and a very well formed and well proportioned one as to the limbs.  His  skull is of an extremely low order, being but a shade higher than that of Pithecanthorpos Erectus found by Dr. Dubois in Java.  It is far below that the most degraded living type.  The prehistoric giant must have had a head that differed little from that of a gorilla.


    So Cro- Magnon were taller and their skulls or faces were much different. They generally had more of an Archaic type of skull, leaning more towards Neanderthals than modern men with protruding brow ridges, slanted foreheads and massive jaws. We also now know that these early Cro-Magnon were  interbreeding with Neanderthals, a fact that archaeologists have argued against for many years. Being completely wrong  on all aspects of evolution is a pattern of  idiocrecy that is  encouraged at the university level.   In essence, Cro-Magnon were not modern at all.

Huge Skeletons of Indians Found
STOCKTON, Calif., Sept 24- Three skeletons, one seven feet long have been uncovered by Harry T. Sanford, college of the Pacific archaeologist, and crew of men engaged in excavating an Indian burial mound near Garwood Ferry bridge. They are believed to be the largest Indian skeletons ever unearthed in California.
