"Crania found in this mound appears to differ somewhat from that of the present Indians."
Antiquities of Florida, by Augustus Mitchell, M.D., of St. Mary’s, Georgia
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.
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.”

Giant Monkey Men Buried with Panther in Cincinatti, Butler County, Ohio Burial Mound
Giant Monkey Men Buried with Panther in Cincinatti, Butler County, Ohio Burial Mound

Cambridge City, Indiana Tribune, September 26, 1889
RELICS IN OHIO MOUNDS
A Gigantic Man Buried Alongside a Panther
Soon after the 1st of March I left for southern Ohio to collect relics to be placed on loan exhibition in the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, say a writer in the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. During the last two moths eleven large mounds have been opened and their contents taken to museums and placed on exhibition. These mounds vary in height from eight to thirty feet, are generally conical in shape, and contain all the way from 300 to 10,000 square yards of dirt. They were built by the aborigines in this country hundreds of years ago to serve as burial places for the distinguished dead. They are generally placed near some stream in a valley and not infrequently on high points of land which commanded a good view of the country, but the larger ones are in the valleys. These mounds are usually composed of clay, sometimes of sand, and often have layers off charcoal or burnt clay in them. These layers are often as brightly colored as if they had been painted.
The first mound opened was on rather high ground, the third river terrace. This mound was 13 feet high, 60 feet wide and 110 feet long. It took six men eight days to dig through. When about twenty feet from the eastern edge we came upon a thick layer of burned bone. The layer was six inches thick and the width of the trench. The ashes of which it was composed were either resultant from animal or human bones, we could not tell which, but at any rate, whether animal or human, it must have taken thirty or forty skeletons (if cremated) to have made that many ashes.
About five feet above this layer, or nine feet from the summit of the mound, was a skeleton of a very large individual which had buried by the side of it the bones of a panther. Whether the person had killed the panther and it was buried with him as an honor or whether the panther had killed the individual I can not say. This much however, can be said, that in forty-three opened no find of this nature has been made. It is therefore quit interesting and important. The skull of the panther was very large, teeth very long and sharp. It would take a mound builder of a great deal of nerve to attack a beast of this size if he had nothing but a stone hatchet and bow and arrows to defend himself with. So if he did kill the panther he certainly entitled to a great deal of credit.
Upon opening the large mound last fall, skeletons were discovered. Little attention was given to the bones which soon crumbled. When another mound was opened a few days ago, however, the excavators were struck by the peculiar cranial characteristics. The heads presumably those of men are very much larger than those of present day men. From directly over the eye socket the head slopes straight back, and the nasal bones protrude far above the cheekbones.
The jawbones are so long and pointed that one is struck with their resemblance to those of a monkey. The teeth in the front of the jaw resemble the molars in the mouths of persons today

Kansas Hopewell Dakota Sioux Burial Pit Included Large Skeletons
Kansas Hopewell Dakota Sioux Burial Pit Included Large Skeletons
The Burial Pit
The burial pit is first reported in the Miami Daily News (Miami, Oklahoma) October 11, 1936
"Salina, Kas., Oct – (AP) – Discovery of an Indian communal burial ground believed to contain the remains of a tribe that roamed the plains of central Kansas more than 500 years ago, has been made five miles east of here by Guy T. Whiteford, policeman-archaeologists. Whiteford said he already has excavated 27 skulls and three complete skeletons, one of which he asserted was seven feet tall. The position of burial and ornaments found near the remains indicated the body was that of a chief, he said."
An update on the excavation of the burial mound describes the artifacts that were found as burial inclusions along with the large size of many of the skeletal remains.
The Brooklyn Eagle, Nov. 24, 1936
"Excavating an Indian burial mound on his grandmother's farm, Howard Kohr of Salina, Kas., unearthed 79 skeletons. With the bones were clay pots, grinding stones and shell knives for the use by the spirits in the next world."
The Salina Journal, June 24, 1956
“Big Fellows: The bones show the prehistoric Indians were of remarkable size and strength. Many of the skeletons are those of men who were well over six feet in height. Most of the skeletons are doubled up in a flexed position resembling that of a fetus. A great number of them lie with their heads to the south and facing east. Price believes that possibly the Indians were sun-worshippers who believed the dead would be reborn again. Hence the bodies were buried so that they would be ready for re-birth.”
Burials in a flexed position are more common in Hopewell burials in the western states of Illinois, Wisconsin, and Nebraska opposed to the extended burials found in the Ohio Valley. The most common attribute of the Hopewell is that of sun-worshippers, which is revealed in the Kansas burials. This type of burial is in contrast to the Pawnee who buried their dead singularly in graves dug in sandy soil encased in a buffalo robe.

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.
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.

Ohio Historical and Archaeological Society Bulletin Reports "Very Large Skeletons" in a Newark, Ohio Burial Mound
Ohio Historical and Archaeological Society Bulletin Reports "Very Large Skeletons" in a Newark, Ohio Burial Mound

The large skeleton was found in a burial mound inside of a large henge (Sun Temple) to the northeast of this large burial mound next to the Fairmount Church in Licking County. More giant skeletons from Ohio found here www.nephilimgiants.net : Giant Human Skeletons Discovered in Ohio
Ohio Historical and Archaeological Society Bulletin, 1900
Among the most elaborate and extensive of these works were those on the high hill, the most elevated ground in the vicinity, a short distance north of Amsterdam, near to, and in a northeasterly direction from the Fairmount church in Licking township. These consisted of a circular wall or embankment, now only a few feet high, enclosing an area of about eight acres. On the outside of this wall is a ditch eight or ten feet in width, which was made by throwing the earth out to make the embankment. These works have been plowed over many times and are gradually disappearing. Within this enclosure there stood, near its center, and within one hundred feet of each other, three mounds, two being of stone. One of the stone mounds had a diameter at the base of forty-five feet, and the other two mounds of thirty feet; all were about twenty-five feet in height. The two stone mounds were removed many years ago bv Mr. John Cover, who found in the large one some skeletons within three feet of the surface of the ground, which must have belonged to persons of very large size. The stone in these mounds were not of large size, and the earth, after their removal, was very black and gave indications of the presence of fire before and soon after the commencement f the mounds; perhaps upon the first layer of stone, or more likely, upon altars which had been erected, and upon which sacrifices had been offered as an act of worship, as was the practice of some ancient nations.

Dig Up Large Skeleton
San Clemente, California - Th skeletons of five gigantic Indians, unearthed in an Indian burial ground near this place, are being viewed by hundreds of curious spectators today. Two of the enormous racks of bones are about seven feet long, while the others measure more than six and a half.
The skeleton was found at an unusual depth, under the burial ground of the Timal Indians, who inhabited this section before the invasion of the whites. Trinkets and ornaments of a unique pattern were found with the skeletons. More giants in California here

TWO HUMAN SKELETONS FOUND
Charleston, West Virginia, Feb. 2 - News has just been received from Winfield, Putnam county, of the strange discovery of two human skeletons lying on a floating cake of ice, in the Kanawha River, near Red House Shoals, Sunday. The skeletons were in a good state of preservation and were evidently the frames of large men. Some fragments of clothing surrounded the bones, but nothing to indicate in any degree the identity of the deceased or the locality from whence they floated on the ice. Numerous giant skeletons were uncovered in West Virginia, for more giants visit here

Large Maritime Archaic Skeletons Uncovered in Maine
Large Maritime Archaic Skeletons Uncovered in Maine
Lewiston Evening Journal, July 25, 1919
James Perkins dug the cellar of his house at Popham Beach, on the knoll next north of the Riverside Hotel, the skeletons unearthed, who were, in life from six to seven feet in height, giants in fact. Mr. Perkins took the jaw bone of one of these Indians and placed it on his own face. It completely encased his jaw and he is a pretty good sized man. Mr. Perkins gathered all the bones of these two skeletons together and placed them in a barrel and reinterred them so. It is proposed to dig up the barrel and have the bones set together to illustrate what manner of inhabitants Weymouth and Popham discovered in the earliest years of the 17th century, when they arrived in this section of Maine." Winter Harbor, Islesford, and Sabino." Perkins was also an accomplished portrait photographer and the Penobscot Museum has 530 glass plate negatives of his work. Perkins was reported to have been keenly interested n the history of Maine and had a love for his community, he passed away in 1935. I have contacted countless museums and historical societies on the trail of this mystery but the reality is that the sheer volume of reports makes it a long and painstaking process to hunt down information regarding these finds. I have been in touch with Penobscot Museum and hopefully I can learn more about this matter. Records, diaries and family accounts will eventually add to the body of evidence needed to fill in the gaps of a phenomena alarmingly ignored by those whose job it is to dig for the truth.
