Giant Adena Skeletons Discovered at a Square Earthwork Work that Antedated the Indians in New York

 

Giant Adena Skeletons Discovered at 

Square Earthwork Work that Antedated 

the Indians in New York

    
" A humerus or shoulder bone, which is preserved, denotes a stature one- third larger than the present race"

Schoolcraft, Henry Rowe. Notes on the Iroquois: Or, Contributions to American History, Antiquities, and General Ethnology. E. H. Pease & Company. 1847.

       But the most remarkable and distinctive trait connected with its archaeology is the discovery of human bones denoting an uncommon stature and development, which are mentioned in the same communication. A humerus or shoulder bone, which is preserved, denotes a stature one- third larger than the present race, and there is also a lower jaw bone, preserved by a physician at Batavia, from the vicinity, which indicates the same gigantic measure of increase. 

   The shape is quadrangular, and is shown in the diagram or ground plot. The forest has been removed. Not a tree remains on the quadrangle, and only a few on the edge of the ravine on the west. By cultivating the land, the trench is nearly filled in some places, though the line of it is clearly seen. On the north side the trench is considerable, and where the road crosses it, is three or four feet deep at the sides of the road. It will take only a few years more to oblate rate it entirely, as not even a stump remains to mark out its line.

 
Must we not refer Fort Hill to that race which peopled this country before the Indians, who raised so many monuments greatly exceeding the power of the Indians, and who lived at a remote era?”
H. R. SCHOOLCRAFT, Esq.: I forward you the observations on Fort Hill, for your use. My speculations are added for my pleasure, and you will use them as you please. In great haste, I am obliged to close.
Your obedient,
C. DEWEY.






Ancient Human Giant Buried with His Weapons in Bartholomew County, Indiana

 

Ancient Human Giant Buried with His Weapons in Bartholomew County, Indian





Giant Skeletons And Copper Implements, Evidence of Ancient Civilization, Unearthed Near Rugby.
   One day last week while making an excavation into the mound-like formation, some farmer near Rugby in Bartholomew county unearthed a number of skeletons of giant size. Buried with the skeletons, were a number of various implements made of copper of curious shapes.

   These remains were taken to Dr. Regenas at Hope, who is an anthropologist and collector of antiquities. He pronounced them relics of the copper age, in the history of ancient civilization in America. Few remains of this character have been discovered in Indiana. Dr. Regenas is having photographs of them taken and is preparing an account of their discovery, which is to be published in a few days.

GIANT'S BONES
Found by Sand Pit Digger Near Cincinnati
 Thursday afternoon while Jacob Burk, of Bromley, Ky., a suburb of Cincinnati, was at work in the sand pits just east of Bromley, he unearthed what was at first supposed to be the bones of some animal, but on further examination it proved to be the skeleton of a man of gigantic proportions. After further excavating it was discovered that there were two more skeletons of gigantic size, lying alongside of the one which was first discovered. The skeletons were lying in regular order and were in an excellent state of preservation. They were measured and it was found that they averaged about seven feet in height and had massive features and high cheek bones. The bones were well preserved and only in a few places were they disconnected, while the teeth were in excellent condition. The excavation from which they were taken was 30 feet deep. There are many burial mounds in Cincinnati to visit.

Giant Humans Skeletons Found Near Mounds State Park in Anderson, Indiana






Giant Skeletons Found. 
Goshen Daily News, Saturday, November 26, 1892
   ANDERSON, Ind., Nov. 36.—John Beal, a farmer living in the north part of this county, found some giant human skeletons while digging a hole in his field Friday. There were a half-dozen skulls of gigantic size. The skeletons were those of men who in their lifetime must have been at least 9 feet in height.

Neanderthal Dwarf Cemetery Includes a Giant in Missouri

 

Neanderthal Dwarf Cemetery Includes a Giant in Missouri




The Cook County Herald, Oct. 24, 1903

Prehistoric Cemetery


     Workmen terracing King hill, an old landmark of the northwestern Missouri which is to be converted into a residential suburb of St. Joseph, have unearthed a prehistoric cemetery.  The remains of a race of dwarfs, not allied with any tribe known to have inhabited this territory, and unaccounted for by Indian legendary repose on the summit of King hill. A feature remarkable in itself and especially marked in connection with the dwarfish remnants of a prehistoric man found on the summit is the discovery of human bones, evidently those of a giant, probably more than seven feet tall and big boned.  Low flat heads with small intelligence and marked animal propensities, characterized this people.  Heavy jaws and strong, well-preserved teeth carry the records of their lives forward.  Brutes, human but not inhumane, self-reliant, they are savages of a lower order than are known today. Yet, they honored their dead.  Shells such as are found on the banks of many inland streams, plentiful on the sandbars of the Missouri, overlooked by King hill, and the stones of unusual hues, worthless in the commercial marts of today, the playthings of children, were deposited in the graves

University of Pennsylvania Geologist Discover Giant Humans in West Virginia With Bronze Coins

 

University of Pennsylvania Geologist Discover Giant Humans in West Virginia With Bronze Coins






Burial mound located in Boaz, West Virginia.  Almost all of the burial mounds excavated in West Virginia contained the remains of giant human skeletons.

Ogden Standard-Examiner, Sunday, November 09, 1930

   Incidentally, an interesting discovery of giant human skeletons in a mound in West Virginia was made recently by a group of the University of Pennsylvania Geologists.  The find is particularly significant.  For the giant skeleton, besides being surrounded by crude jewelry and stone implements and what must have been woven coverings was buried with copper and bronze coins having indecipherable inscriptions.
   The mounds of the Ohio Valley have proven that there were "giants in those days."  Out of all these facts, some bewildering, some illuminating, one point seems to stand out: that the race has gone to the species of the fittest brains.  The great dinosaurs succumbed to the keen intelligence of the little possum.  The powerful human giants disappeared and in their place rose men of less physical stature but with increasing brain power.

In Search of the "Giants Ruins" in Harrison County, Indiana

 

In Search of the "Giants Ruins" in Harrison County, Indiana



Little is known of this site that was listed as "Giant Ruins" in Harrison County, Indiana. This map is from the Indiana Geological Report from about 1915. Except for a slight description of a stone structure, little else is known. I am planning on investigating this site when the snow flies in the late fall, early winter of 2015. Another giant human skeleton discovered in 
   Indiana www.nephilimgiants.net : A Nine and a Half Foot Skeleton is Measured by Indiana Scientists who Claim it was the Remains of an Ancient White Race Who Built the Mounds

Near the "Giants Ruins" are numerous caves, including Wyandotte that is just north of the site. Chert was mined near the site with the Harrison chert mines nearby.

Giant Human Skeleton Found in Fort Wayne's West Central Neighborhood's Ancient Burial Ground

 Giant Human Skeleton Found in Fort Wayne's West Central Neighborhood's Ancient Burial Ground





    In the extreme west end of the city [West Central] there -'was formerly an extensive bluff, perhaps some fifteen or sixteen feet higher than any other point within the present limits of Fort Wayne, which covered originally some two squares. It was, indeed, an immense sand heap. When, and how long accumulating, the ages alone can determine. The sand is of a rather fine quality, and much of it has served well, doubtless, for mortar, in building and other purposes. It extended from Wayne street, fronting and within, a few yards of the college, towards the river, a short distance below Berry street, and eastward perhaps about a square; somewhat sloping in its general character. Its highest point was at about the present terminus of Berry street. Over this knoll there extended but little vegetative life ; a few indifferent bushes here and there over it and about its margin, formed, perhaps, the principal part of its productive growth, as is usually the case with sandy points. The Indians are said to have had some huts upon it, some years ago. In removing this- great sand, heap, as in digging at other points within the present limits of Fort Wayne, the Indians having deposited their dead here and there, many bones and skulls were exhumed and removed. On one occasion, some workmen thus engaged, among many others, dug up a most remarkable skull —with high forehead and general formation extremely large — indicating a giant form to the possessor.

Haunted West Central Neighborhood
   
Anyone who has lived in Fort Wayne's West Central Neighborhood has heard tales of the older homes being haunted. Most of these hauntings are on the west end of Berry and Wayne Streets, where the Indian cemetery was located. The sandhill where the bodies were buried was bulldozed to build homes. There are still burials that remain in the backyards of Washington Blvd. on the top of the bluff of the sandhill that still remains.

Dr. Examines Ancient Remains on Kelly and Putin Bay Islands in Lake Erie and Determines they were Once the Home of a Race of Giants

A VISIT TO OHIO
An Interesting Trip to Sandusky: Many Relics of Early Times Discovered

   Sandusky, Ohio, Nov. 9th, 1893. - I leave Sandusky on the steamer Kirby for Detroit, Michigan today, to visit my old home in Pontiac, about 30 miles from Detroit. Sixty years ago I was baptized in that place, and it is there where I first saw the prophet, Joseph Smith.


    While visiting friends in Sandusky I have been very much interested in some of the history of this country, especially its early times, when a prehistoric race were dwellers on the land, and the islands which abound in the lake and now are pleasure resorts. Charles N. Freeman has given much time in searching after relics in the early settlement of Lake Erie shores. He says at one time 23 skeletons were disinterred. Many others were not disturbed, but the 23 were examined by Dr. Charles Stroud and T. I. Williams, who decided the skulls to be of a race superior to the Indians. Some of them were eight feet tall; others were 7 feet. These large skeletons were not confined to the shores of Lake Erie and Ontario, but were found throughout the entire state of Ohio. Dr. Stroud decided there was no doubt that at one time a superior race of people inhabited the country, but mystery shrouded their history.
    I was informed by an aged gentlemen that recently he had taken a thigh bone from the ground on a farm about forty miles from the Hill of Cumorah; it was computed to belong to a person eight feet high. Only the other day I met a gentleman on the steamer City of Sandusky, from a trip to Putin-Bay Island, who informed me that on this small island of 13,000 acres, twenty-five miles out from Sandusky, in Lake Erie, skeletons of an unknown race were found that were over eight feet long. This opened up a very pleasant conversation in which he said he was very much interested in regard to colonists from the Tower of Babel 2000 years before Christ. The eleventh chapter of Genesis declares that the Lord would scatter the people from the Tower upon all the earth.
Kelly's Island is one of the gems of Lake Erie and is twelve miles northwest of Sandusky. Seven acres of ground in a circular form of earthwork contained bones of a large race of people.

Ancient Giant Cherokee Crowned King is Discovered at the Etowah Mounds in Georgia

 Ancient Giant Cherokee Crowned King is Discovered at the Etowah Mounds in Georgia

SKELETONS OF GIANTS
Remarkable Relics of an Extinct Race Excavated in Georgia
      Mr. J. B. Toomer received a letter from Mr. Hazelton, who is on a visit to Gainsville. The letter contained several beads made of bone and gave an interesting account of the opening of a large Indian mound near that town by a committee of scientist from the Smithsonian Institute. After removing the dirt for some distance, a layer of large flagstones was found, which had evidently been dressed by hand and showed that the men who quarried this rock understood their business. These stones were removed, when in a kind of vault beneath them, the skeleton of a giant, seven feet two inches was found. His hair was coarse and jet black and hung to the waist, the brow being ornamented with a copper crown. The skeleton was remarkably well preserved and taken from the vault intact. Near this skeleton were found the bodies of several children of various sizes. The remains of the latter were covered with beads, made of bone of some kind. Upon removing these, the bodies were found to be enclosed in a network made of straw and reeds, and beneath this was a covering of the skin of some animal. In fact, the bodies had been prepared somewhat after the manner of mummies and will doubtless throw new light on the history of a people who reared these mounds. Upon the stones that covered the vault were carved inscriptions, and if deciphered will probably lift the veil that has enshrouded the history of the race of giants that undoubtedly at one time inhabited this continent. All the relics were carefully packed and forwarded to the Smithsonian Institute and are said to be the most interesting collection ever found in America.

Graveyard of Giant Race of Humans Found in North Dakota

 Graveyard of Giant Race of Humans Found in North Dakota



Two miles from Mandan, on the bluffs near the junction of the Hart and Missouri rivers is an old cemetery of fully 100 acres in extent filled with bones of a giant race. This vast city of the dead lies just east of Fort Lincoln Road. The ground has the appearance of having been filled trenches piled full of dead bodies, both man and beast, and covered with several feet of earth. In many places mounds from 8 to 10 feet high, and some of them 100 feet or more in length have been filled with bones and broken pottery, vases of various bright-colored flints and agates. The pottery is of a dark material, beautifully decorated, delicate in finish and as light as wood, showing the work of a people skilled in the arts and possessed of a high state of civilization. This has evidently been a grand battlefield, where thousands of men and horses have fallen. Nothing like a systematic or intelligent exploration has been made, as only little holes two or three feet in depth have been dug in some of the mounds, but many of the bones of man and beast and beautiful specimens of broken pottery and other curiosities have been found in those feeble efforts at excavation. We asked an aged Indian what his people knew of these ancient graveyards. He answered: “Me know nothing about them. They were here before the red man.

Visiting the Cass County, Michigan Giant's Burial Mound

 Visiting the Cass County, Michigan Giant's Burial Mound



Giant skeletons have been found mainly in the southern parts of Michigan. One group of burial mounds in Michigan may be oldest in the Midwest, dating as early as 3,500 B.C. www.nephilimgiants.net : Maritime Archaic Burial Mounds in Newaygo County, Michigan Could Date as Early as 2,500 B.C.




   The largest mounds in the county are those upon the farm of Joseph Walter. Three beautiful and regular mounds occur here, situated in a line from east to west. A short distance south of them is a well-defined ditch which forms a perfect horseshoe, measuring from one hundred and six feet in length by one hundred feet in width. There is no trace of embankment in connection with the excavations. For what purpose the horseshoe-shaped enclosure was made by ancient people can, of course, only be conjectured. There is no probability, however, that it was designed, as so many suppose it to have been for work of defense.

   One of the three large mounds, which have been mentioned, was excavated in September 1878, by Dr. E.J. Bonine, of Niles, who operated under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution. It was a mound as about thirteen feet high (Originally it must have been of greater altitude), and the diameter of its base was about fifty feet. On the summit of the mound, within the memories of settlers, stood a burr oak tree four feet in diameter, and probably three hundred years old. A shaft was sunk by the excavators into the center of the mounds that was found to be to composed throughout of the same soil as that of the surrounding plain – a rich black loam. Almost invariably the human remains found under the mounds rest upon the natural surfaces of the earth, the mounds simply being heaped over them, but in this case the internment was several feet below the original level. Several skeletons were found, being those of men, women and children, a number of fragments of pottery, a curious bone or ivory ornament, bearing some resemblance to a walrus tooth, several amulets pierced with holes, through which thongs had doubtless once been placed to attach them to the person, several bone implements and five copper hatchets of fine edge and good formation. Portions of the skeletons were in a good state of preservation. The femur, or thighbone, of one of the males, which Dr. Bonine has now in his possession, is of great size and indicates that its owner must have been at least seven feet in height.

THREE GIANT SKELETONS.

Workmen Make a Remarkable Discovery
Toledo, Ohio.
Toledo Ohio- April 20. —Workmen in the employ of the Ferguson Construction company excavating for the new Toledo and Ottawa Beach railroad, a little beyond the city limits, unearthed three skeletons, evidently relics of some great race, as they were, about seven feet in length. Just where the ears should be on the head are singular bony protuberances that curl forward. The finds were made in the solid yellow day about eight feet be below the surface. The cut is through a large mound, not half of which has yet been torn up. Several stone tomahawks of large size have been picked up in the locality.
