Tracing Giant Legends
1. There is no question giant skeletons were pulled out of burial grounds throughout the US. Why does there seem to be a cover up?
There is abundant archaeological evidence which confirms the biblical record- one of which is the archaeological discoveries of giants in North America. There is a wide array of empirical evidence of giants which are in direct opposition with the Neo-Darwinian, macro-evolutionary dogma that has been propagated for the last 160 years. Yet when archaeological findings and scientific facts are examined, a very different picture emerges. The traces and remains of giants that have come down to the present—from the burial grounds and mounds of Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, New York, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas to Arizona, Nevada, and California have yielded artifacts such as bones, skulls, tools, —show that in cultural and social terms, humans have had advanced ancient technology and civilizations without discernible periods of evolution. This sudden onset of cultures possessing advanced technology 4,000 years ago is consistent with the Bible account after Noah’s Flood, the proliferation of people in Sumeria and the scattering abroad of them during the Tower of Babel.
Omni magazine reported, “The unprecedented explosion of knowledge five thousand years ago, they believe, may have been foreshadowed by an earlier society whose cultural remnants have long since vanished.” But did they vanish all together? Evidence indicates that the Nephilim giants migrated from the Levant. My friend Joe Taylor has documented many of these finds and reports throughout history in his book, “Giants: Against Evolution” now out of print but now available as a PDF download.
I have personally researched the Rock Wall phenomena in Rockwall, Texas with reported remains of giants and associated artifacts from the 1850’s. In the spring of 2012, Joe Taylor & I visited Rockwall to investigate the phenomenon of an apparent ancient rock wall underground in which the namesake of Rockwall, Texas was named in the 1850’s. Benjamin Boydstun, Terry Utley Wade and William Clay Stevenson began settling that area and are credited with finding the wall. Since the men could not agree on the town name, the settlers agreed on the name of Rockwall.
As we began our investigations, it became quickly apparent that none of the locals even knew about the rock wall. They had no idea what was under their feet! Joe and I even went as far to go to the local police station to try to get some information but they too were at a loss. After several dead ends, we stopped at the local Rockwall museum and inquired about the wall. The museum had some information and we were able to investigate a large, rectangular sandstone rock that looked like it had been cut to size. They informed us that this was indeed one of the stones that came from one of the excavations at the wall. I did manage to inspect one associated artifact still at the Rockwall museum that was found in one of the excavations at the rock wall. It is known as the “Quivira artifact”. There is also a large section of the rock wall on display downtown located on the courthouse square. (see photos below)
This rock wall is a rectangular structure approximately 3.5 miles wide by 5.6 miles long encompasses an area of up to some 20 square miles. It was reported on Friday, May 28, 1886, by the Rockwall Success, Rockwall County’s first newspaper that giant artifacts were found although this can no longer be substantiated.
The “Quivira artifact”
Thought to be a man-made artifact found on location but Joe Taylor identified it as a broken end of a Mosasaur jaw with two fragmented teeth.

Rockwall Success May 28, 1886
“The greatest wonders that we have to record this week is the finding of a petrified human skull. While at work last Saturday, Ben Burton unearthed with his plow, a gigantic skull, fully as large as a halfbushel. The staring sockets wherein the eyeballs once rolled, were as large as a half-gallon cup. Some few of the jaw-teeth still remained; one of them about an inch thick by two inches long. This goes to prove that this county was once inhabited by a race of people that would be wonderful to look at now. Dr. Wiggins thinks it the skull of some ante-deluvian giant, that would have weighed at least 1000 pounds. Any one wishing to see this mammoth skull, can do so by calling at The Success office, as Mr. Burton says he will leave it there for inspection. –– Sam Slick”
Rockwall Success June 4, 1886 No. 19
“Wonders will never cease. Immediately after it was generally known that Mr. J. B. Burton had found the gigantic petrified skull, a large crowd collected and set about making an examination of the surrounding ground. Spades, picks, and axes were plentiful and in use. Mr. W. R. Grier might have been seen pounding the ground with a huge hammer, and intently listening after each successive blow, when he was heard to call out, “This way boys!” There was a general rush to his position. “Listen Boys,” said Grier as he brought the hammer down with a heavy thump on a large flat rock.
According to Mary Pattie (Wade) Gibson, granddaughter of T.U. Wade (who was one of the founders) gives further historical details regarding what her grandfather and other men did. It is reported that there were cubicles or rooms constructed of stone which you could walk into and reach a corridor which seemed to run in a direction into the hill in which the town square now sits above. She told of an incident in 1906 of two unidentified men digging out the corridor which had apparently been filled with erosion. Their intent was to reach a room full of gold according to Indian legend. The ceiling of the corridor had steep slopes (describing a Gothic type arched ceiling, much like the Mayans built), and as the two men excavated further into the corridor, the steeper the slope of the ceiling became, and consequently, the men abandoned the site in fear of structural collapse.
Here is the back story of the rock wall:
To the astonishment of all, the hammer slipped from Grier’s hands, and after a short interval, was heard to strike something below that had the clear distinct ring of metal. Now the wildest excitement prevailed. A lantern and rope were quickly brought, and the earth was rapidly cleared away. The hole in the rock, which proved to be slate, was enlarged and the lantern was let down into the murky darkness. At last Messrs Burton, Grier and J. B. Steger volunteered to descend and explore the mystery. The cavity proved to be a chamber about 60×100 feet square, and 40 feet from the floor to the slate roof through which they had effected an entrance. This roof was supported on pillars of black marble, whose polished sides glittered in the lamplight and made one think of the orient.
Later, in 1922, men were digging a water well when at about thirty- five feet down they discovered an almost perfect square opening through the wall, which has been referred to as a “window.” The opening was two feet square, in a two foot section of the wall. The total depth of the shaft was forty-two feet, but they did not find the bottom of the structure.
Mrs. Gibson also spoke of her grandfather’s investigation of the wall in which he discovered on the outside that the wall went straight down about forty feet. Additional information was provided by the daughter of the late Mr. Deweese, an early settler of Rockwall, who described a doorway with a diagonal shaped stone in the wall at the Wade residence on Highway 66. This portion of the wall was open to visitors from 1936 until the late 1940′s, but was eventually back filled because of dangerous structural conditions.
In 1949, a Mr. Sanders of Fort Worth, Texas, did an excavation of the wall. From this excavation four large stones were brought up with the largest weighing approximately two tons. It is claimed that other artifacts such as a large stone with possible unknown writing and an animal artifact have been found at the site. These extremely dense stones have been underground, therefore erosion has not been the cause of the designs on them. Moreover, there are no other stones or portions of the wall with inscriptions or diagrams that have been discovered to date.
There are other reports of doorways or windows found in the wall through the past 100 years such as reported in the Dallas Morning News, 5 November 1967 by Frank X. Tolbert, “Back in the 1920′s, T.H. Meredith said a well was dug on his farm just east of the town of Rockwall, and Mr. Meredith declared that the digging went along side a masonry wall which seemed to have an arch over a doorway or window.” Could this be that this is remnants of some ancient, long lost civilization? Geologists generally believe that it is simply a geological feature called a “clastic” sand dike. It is important to understand however that no one knows what this feature is exactly or how it was created.
Amature archaeologist, John Lindsey, is about the only one that has continued investigations since 1996 along with a few excavations so that we may be able to advance our understanding of the phenomenon at Rockwall. His findings show that there is mounting evidence for the rock wall being man-made. It was hoped that the city of Rockwall would approve a city vote to continue the excavations with hopes of attracting tourism to the city. Regretfully on May 12, 2012 the city of Rockwall voted the measure down. Unfortunately, there have been no further excavations since the year 2000 nor will there be any to come in the foreseeable future.
What has happened to these artifacts found throughout the years? The Smithsonian has played a key role in covering up most of the evidence of giants. An article in Ancient American Issue #40 titled, “Holocaust of Giants: the great Smithsonian Cover-up” tells of reported giant skeletons that were excavated by the Smithsonian but never shown to the public. And most of the associated artifacts found at Rockwall were whisked away by the Smithsonian never to see the light of day again.
I personally have heard about such an account with other artifacts such as the Malachite Man site in Utah. Skeletons of ten perfectly modern humans have been excavated from fifty eight feet down in the Dakota Sandstone, over an area spanning about 50 by 100 feet. The bones are partially replaced with malachite (a green mineral) and turquoise, thus appropriately named "Malachite Man". This formation is a member of the Lower Cretaceous, supposedly 140 million years old and is known for its dinosaurs and is the same formation found at Dinosaur National Monument in Vernal, Utah! At least four of the ten individuals are female. One is an infant. Some of the bones are articulated. Some are not, appearing to have been washed into place. No obvious tools or artifacts were found associated with the bones. The bulldozer driver who uncovered the first bones in 1971 expresses certainty that there were no tunnels or cracks in the extremely hard overlying layers of rock.
In 1998, I was with a team that continued excavations the site. It was told to us by the landowner that in the 1970’s, an intact skull was discovered at the site which had turned completely turquoise-colored; even the teeth! According to the original landowner, the Smithsonian found out and asked to “borrow” the skull for “scientific studies.” The skull was never returned. Despite repeated requests through the Freedom of Information Act to simply exam & photograph the artifact, the Smithsonian has adamantly refused to comply.
In spite of the apparent cover-up by the Smithsonian since its inception, they have not sealed all the cracks of history. In 1911 several giant skeletons and ancient artifacts were found in a cave in Lovelock. When mining for bat guano in the cave, the miners reportedly found giant mummies preserved in the dry bat-droppings. The mummies were large, from 6 and a half feet to more than 8 feet and they had red hair. They were reportedly lying in a layer of burnt material about four feet under the surface and there were also lots of broken arrows around the mummies. Later, two giant pestles weighing approximately 20 lbs and one 40 lbs was discovered at the entrance of the cave.
The Paiute Indians of the area have legends about giants and how they killed them. The race of giants, they called "Si-Te-Cah”, were very tall red-haired cannibals and the Paiutes started war against them when they entered their land. A coalition of tribes managed to trap the last remaining giants in a cave and while shooting arrows at them they started a large fire at the mouth of the cave. They kept the fire going and shot everybody who tried to get out - until the giants were annihilated.
In 2009, a friend of mine named Pete Mansoor travelled to Winnemucca, Nevada to see the remains of the giant skulls at the Humbolt Museum. The skulls were not on public display but he was allowed to see and photograph the giant skulls by a little old lady running the museum that day. When Pete asked why they were not showcased her reply was “they are not recognized by the National Association of Museums”. As of 2012, I was scheduled to visit the Humbolt Museum that summer to examine the skulls. I corresponded with the Humbolt museum and they confirmed that they indeed have 4 different giant skulls from Lovelock; only one being in good condition. I was then told by the museum director that they have been locked away in storage and will not be on public display indefinitely. Even if I made the trip to visit the museum, it was not possible to view the skulls. For now, they remain in possession of the museum. It is a wonder that the Smithsonian has not come for them yet! Nevertheless, Pete managed to get some great photos of them. (See photos below- Credit: Pete Mansoor)
In 1939, also near Lovelock in the Humboldt lake bed there were two giant skeletons excavated measuring 10’ tall being wrapped in a gum-covered fabric similar to the Egyptian method. The second skeleton was and 8 1/2’ tall as reported by the Review-Miner, June 19, 1931.
In Twin Valley, Minnesota a farmer discovered some bones on his property. He called out the proper authorities to investigate. What they found was mind-blowing. Upon excavating the mound, it contained a giant skeleton 8’6” in length. In addition, two other smaller skeletons, apparently children, were found at the feet of the giant in fetal positions. Although no artifacts were found, the Native American representative present at the excavation, did not claim the bones as Native American. It caused such a stir among the authorities, that the state archaeologist immediately halted excavations and ordered the site to be re-buried without delay!
Here is an article reprint from the San Antonio Express in Texas about a giant skull that was discovered in 1940.
The article from 1940:
Beach Giant Skull Unearthed By WPA Workers Near Victoria Believed to Be Largest Ever Found in World; Normal Head Also Found
“That Texas “had a giant in the beach” in the long ago appears probable from the large skull recently unearthed on a mound in Victoria County, believed to be the largest human skull ever found in the United Estates and probably in the world. Twice the size of the skull of a normal man, the fragments were dug up by W. Duffen, archeologist who is excavating the mound in Victoria County under a WPA project sponsored by the University of Texas. In the same mound and at the same level, a normal sized skull was found. The peices taken from the mound were reconstructed in the WPA laboratory under the supervision of physical anthropologists”.
“A study is being made to determine whether the huge skull was that of a man belonging to a tribe of extraordinary large men, or whether the skull was that of an abnormal member of a tribe, a case of gigantism. Several large human bones have been unearthed at the site.
Marcus B. Goldstein, physical anthropologist, employed on the WPA project, formerly was an aide of Alen Horliken, curator of the National Museum of Physical Anthropology. Finds made through excavations in Texas are beginning to give weight to the theory that man lived in Texas 40,000 years ago, it is said”.
The University of Texas has confirmed that a large skull was found in 1939 but that it has been missing from the collection since and its whereabouts is unknown.
The evolutionist historical perspective studies the history of mankind by dividing it up into several periods. Such fictitious concepts as the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age are an important part of evolutionary chronology. Since this invented representation is presented via mainstream media, most people accept this fallacy without question and imagine that human beings once lived in an era when only primitive stone tools were used and advanced technology was unknown. This leads to the suppression of the truth and suppression leads to oppression. To suppress something is to resist it consciously and the Bible has something to say about it. This is personally one of my favorite passages.
Romans 1:18-25 (KJV)
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
People are seeking the answers to life’s’ 4 great questions but never coming to the knowledge of the Truth.
1. Who am I?
2. Where did I come from?
3. What is my purpose here?
4. Where am I going?
Unfortunately, the majority of people cannot answer the four great questions of life using the precepts of evolutionary theory. The pursuit of truth should be our highest priority. Usually the simplest explanation is the best. In science, this is known as “Ockham’s Razor.” Truth is the direct opposite of falsehood and is the first to get repressed in any lie. But we need to define truth. Pilot asked Jesus, “What is truth”? Truth is defined as a verified or indisputable fact.
John Adams once stated, "Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence." Suppression is not a disbelief of the truth but the denial of it. There is a world of difference between ignorance of the truth and a denial of it. One would expect the secular realms of evolutionary academia to “suppress the truth about giants” to protect the theory of evolution. There has been a profound shift in belief of creation to evolution and the existence of giants from the 20th to the 21st century. The recent finds in Minnesota and across the Ohio & Mississippi River Valleys proves it.
The simple truth is that the evolutionary picture of mankind does not match the empirical evidence in the field of archaeology nor in its cultural or historical context. This evidence has been suspiciously hidden, destroyed, covered-up, buried, re-written, and re-defined by those who would suppress the truth. It reminds me of what George Orwell said. He stated, “In times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” The truth is that we are created in the image of God just as the ancient book of Genesis is written; not the image of a faceless and hopeless evolution from primordial soup, neither the image of ancient aliens, nor ETs from other planets. The fact that there are archaeological remains of the Nephilim giants explicitly invalidates the theory of evolution whose main purpose is to deny the Creator and Supreme Authority of the heavens and earth- the God of the Bible.
