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.

2. Is it possible the Nephilim giants that we read about during the conquest of Canaan fled the country and migrated north and then into the Ohio valley?

We know from Scripture, that the giants were still around some 400 years after the flood. They span from the time of Abraham, to the 400 years of captivity of the Israelites in Egypt, until the time of Moses. A descendant of the Rephaim living at the time of Moses was named King Og.

Deuteronomy 3:11 (KJV)
¹¹ For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.

A standard cubit was 18 inches. A royal cubit was 21 inches. Some scholars also say that a royal cubit was the length of the forefinger to the elbow or the length of the first born son. Using these measurements, we can estimate King Og’s height at 13 to 15ft tall! He was one of the last remaining remnants of the giants at the time of Moses.

There were some 400 years for the Nephilim to gain a foothold in the land of Canaan. But we also see Joshua fighting the Anakims as well. So there is still a remnant of giants during the time of Moses and Joshua as they continue to battle the Anakims. Many of them lived in and around the land of Canaan, and Joshua was involved in several battles with them. David and his mighty men killed some Philistine giants. The Egyptians knew about the Anakim and feared them. Evidence points to the Egyptian Execration Texts that condemn a long list of the Egyptians' enemies. Included in that list are 'Erum, Abi-yamimu, and 'Akirum, the "Ruler[s] of Iy-'anaq".¹ Some have sought to relate this tribe to the Anakim of the Bible, but the Execration Texts date to the 19th-18th centuries B.C., at least five hundred years before the Israelite invasion and probably another few hundred years before the accounts were written. Nothing else is known of the Anakim or the Iy-'anaq outside of these documents, so the connection must remain speculation for now.

The Nephilim in Canaan were descended from Anak, and so were also known as the Anakim. The Anakim as well as the Emim, Rephaim, and Zanzummim were all a race of giants existing in Canaan at the time of Israel's arrival. Among them were warriors of exceeding stature, including Ishbi-Benob (II Samuel 21:16), Og (Numbers 21:33; Deuteronomy 3:11); and the famous ten-foot-plus Goliath, a great champion of Gath who defied the Israelites and who was slain by David (I Samuel 17:21-29). Goliath was probably descended from the old Rephaim of whom a scattered remnant took refuge with the Philistines after their dispersion by the Ammonites (Deuteronomy 2:20, 21; II Samuel 21:22). Tradition has it that by King David's time there were only five great warrior "kings" left in the land, represented by the five stones in David's satchel, one of which he used to slay Goliath, while the other four stones were marked for his four giant brothers slated to be destroyed (II Samuel 21:15-22).

These tribes of giants seem to have been established as an advance guard to obstruct Israel’s possession of the Promised Land.

There is no clear record of the Anakim after the Israelite invasion, but since a remnant survived in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod (Joshua 11:22), it is probably safe to assume that they were assimilated into the culture of the Philistines, who were just beginning to settle in that area. These three cities went on to play a central role in Philistine politics, and Gath has already been noted for its connection to the giants. These Anakim have already been equated with the Rephaim (Deuteronomy 2:11), so they were no doubt understood to be the same as the "descendants of Rapha" who worked out of Philistine Gath in II Samuel 21:22.

The Amorites were eventually displaced from the eastern Mediterranean by the Hittites, Egyptians and Hebrews. The arrival of the Nephilim in the Ohio Valley may be due to the Celts migrating into the British Isles, circa 1500-1200 B.C. effectively ending the domination by the Beaker Peoples in England.² This also corresponds to the end of the copper mining operations and manufacturing of copper weapons on Lake Superior. In addition to similar earthworks & mounds, called henges, the Beaker People also shared mortuary practices as those found in the Ohio valley along with the same unique type of conical mounds that are many times surrounded by a moat or ditch.

The Beaker People who are the builders of Stonehenge and the many burial mounds in the British Isles were composed of the Dinaric, Corded People and Borreby Cro-Magnon. It is thought that the Corded People were a northern extension of the giants in the Bible known as the Amorites. Dinaric skulls are found mostly in the Ohio Valley, with their heads flattened in the back with unique features of a protruding brow ridge, thick skulls, massive jaws and large height make them distinctive to any other skeletal remains. The Dinaric type is found most extensively in the Ohio Valley. This type of skull has also been found at the Gates of Damascus in Jerusalem, where the skull was described as massive. The Dinaric peoples are also associated with conical burial mounds and henges as sun temples; strikingly similar to the Ohio mounds.

Finally, cultures from around the world have legends that are often remarkably similar to biblical accounts, including the existence of giants. These "mighty men of old, men of renown," whose exploits of strength and violence made them famous became legends in the ages following the Flood. To cultures of later times such as the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, they were revered as great hero-gods; hence the heroes of mythology who have their basis in historical fact; but in reality they were merely the Nephilim giants of violence and evil.

It is noted that there are fairly tall skeletons from the Minoan culture in Crete and some scholars believe there is a connection between the Cretans and the Philistine giants.³ Such efforts have their roots in the authors of antiquity, who speak of the bones of past heroes and villains that were still on display for others to see. Josephus wrote that one could see the bones of the Anakim "to this very day, unlike to any creditable relations of other men" (Antiquities 5.126). Josephus went on to write, [The Nephilim] “proved unjust, and despisers of all that was good, on account of the confidence they had in their own strength; for the tradition is, That these men did what resembled the acts of those whom the Grecians call giants”. (Antiquities 1.73) Cimon is said to have recognized the bones of Theseus on the isle of Scyros by their enormous size (Plutarch, Theseus 38), and Pausanias in his Guide to Greece speaks of two separate caches of giants' bones that one may visit in Arkadia (8.29.4, 8.32.5).

A Norse myth, which was not written down until over a thousand years after the Greek and Hebrew counterparts, might also be traceable to this common tradition; in it, three gods (Odin, Vili and Ve) kill Ymir, the father of the frost giants, whose blood flows so freely that it becomes a flood which drowns the other giants.⁴ The line between giants and gods remained blurry at best in Norse mythology (e.g., Loki was the son of two giants, yet he was counted as one of the gods). However, the Nephilim bear a closer resemblance to the Greek demigods, who were children of mixed fallen angel/human parentage but not fully divine.

To use Isaiah 26:14, not quite “all memory” of the giants disappeared, but traces of heroic legends are alluded to in the earliest chapters of Genesis. Like the Nephilim and Rephaim of who they spoke, are now little more than shades in the biblical text but evident throughout the archaeology and history of ancient cultures extending all the way to the Ohio River Valley in North America.

3. Thor Heirdhal proves with his Kon Tiki, ancient people could have navigated the oceans. With that in mind is it possible the tribes of Nephilim located in Canaan fled via the oceanic routes?

The Kon-Tiki expedition was inspired by old reports and drawings made by the Spanish Conquistadors of Inca rafts, and by native legends and archaeological evidence suggesting contact between South America and Polynesia. Kon-Tiki demonstrated that it was possible for a primitive raft to sail the Pacific to the west if the wind was at your back. This demonstrates that the Nephilim could have gotten all around the globe via the oceanic routes on primitive rafts in just a few years. We know that the Phoenicians became master sailors’ of the seas.

In modern day science, there are a few experts that trace a gene, called “Haplo X” found in some of the Native American populations, back to the Biblical lands.⁵ The experts tell us that Haplo X was not found in Siberia; thus effectively ruling out that ancient man arrived via the Bering Land Bridge but that this gene is specifically Eurasian. The origin of the other half of group X was found in Galilee. But when did these peoples arrive? Some scientists theorize that is was some 40,000 yrs ago. But there is controversy in the dating. When examining the actual data, other scientist using the new clock based on mutation rates,⁶ concerning the question of when concludes that this could be a mere 2,000-6,000 years ago!⁷ Is this the same tribe of giants called the Kurgan of southern Russia (4400-3500 BC)? Is it possible that the tribes of Nephilim fled via the oceanic routes? The evidence is circumstantial at best but indeed remains an intriguing possibility.

4. Native Americans claim there was a race of giant people who were here before them. What are your thoughts in that regard?

The North American Indians especially the Chippewa, Sandusky, Tawa, Iroquois, Cherokee, Choctaw and Hopi tribes believed that there was a race of giant beings before them. My great-grandmother was full-blooded Choctaw Indian. The Choctaws legends tell that after they crossed the Mississippi River, they encountered a powerful, white race of cannibal giants who came from the east and used Mammoths as beasts of burden but were in decline when the Choctaw came.

It is interesting that the Native Americans are in agreement in saying that their fathers came from the west; that they found the earthworks of the Ohio Valley just as they are to be seen today and that the structures were already in place when they arrived. But the date of this migration of the Indians from the west to the east varies according to the nations. Another tradition claims that the works of the Ohio were raised by the white Indians. These white Indians, according to the red Indians, were to have come from the east; and when they left the lake without shores (the sea), they came dressed like the palefaces of today.⁸

In the autobiography of William "Buffalo Bill" Cody , Cody writes that while camping on the South Platte, a Pawnee Indian came into the camp with what the army surgeon pronounced to be a giant thigh bone of a human being.⁹ When Cody asked about where such a bone might have come from, the Indian replied that long ago a race of giants had lived in the area who were 15’ tall! This race of men had been three times larger than normal men and able to out-run a buffalo and even carry it in one hand. Cody wrote:

“These giants denied the existence of a Great Spirit, so he caused a great rain storm to come, and the water kept rising higher and higher so that it drove these proud, and conceited giants from the low ground to the hills, and thence to the mountains, but at last even the mountain tops were submerged and then those mammoth men were all drowned. After the flood had subsided, the Great Spirit came to the conclusion that he had made man too large and powerful, and that he would therefore, correct the mistake by creating a race of men of smaller size and less strength. This is the reason, say the Indians, that modern men are small and not like the giants of old, and they claim that this story is a matter of Indian history, which has been handed down among them from time immemorial.”

Buffalo Bill also wrote the following words about a legend recounted to him by members of the Sioux tribe.

It was taught by the wise men of this tribe that the earth was originally peopled by giants, who were fully three times the size of modern men. They were so swift and powerful that they could run alongside a buffalo, take the animal under one arm, and tear off a leg, and eat it as they ran. So vainglorious were they because of their own size and strength that they denied the existence of a Creator. When it lighted, they proclaimed their superiority to the lightning; when it thundered, they laughed.

This displeased the Great Spirit, and to rebuke their arrogance he sent a great rain upon the earth. The valleys filled with water, and the giants retreated to the hills. The water crept up the hills, and the giants sought safety on the highest mountains. Still the rain continued, the waters rose, and the giants, having no other refuge, were drowned.¹⁰

I have worked closely with the Navajo Indians living for weeks at a time on the Navajo Nation in Arizona. The Navajo creation story, Diné Bahane or the "Story of the People", describes the prehistoric emergence of the Navajos, and centers on the area known as the Dinétah, the traditional homeland of the Navajo people. This story forms the basis for the traditional Navajo way of life. Within their legends, they tell of a giant who once wondered the land in the previous world. They also report that giants lived in the Grand Canyon being 10-18’ tall. In 1891, while digging in Crittenden, Arizona, men uncovered a granite coffin 12’ in length although no remains were found save one inscription on the side of the coffin of a foot with six toes!

I have extensively researched the Native American Southwest including several visits to Chaco Canyon in New Mexico. I first traveled there in 1998 to research the six-toed petroglyphs at the base of the cliff behind the magnificent ruin of Pueblo Bonito. A small room can be found with a series of six-toed footprints carved into the cliff face which served as the back wall of the room. These footprints were carved up the cliff face as if emerging from the ground. This might possibly represent the Nephilim giants emerging from the spirit world to the fourth world in which we all reside. Since then, I have found polydactylism in Native American rock art in hand print petroglyphs as well. This is an unusual feature that is found throughout the Southwest where the legends of the giants remain embedded in the Native American culture. This also correlates with the biblical Nephilim who had six fingers and six toes- 24 digits in all. (See photo below. Photo credit: author)

5. Who do you think built the structures that we see in Newark, Ohio and Cahokia? Is this the work of Native Americans or did someone else construct these?

Long thought to be the creation of Native Americans for various reasons such as ceremonial rituals and burial sites, some researchers have begun to question whether it is possible that the mounds predate Native American inhabitants. There seems to be a correlation between the mounds and reports of giant artifacts in the surrounding areas – including giant human remains. So, if Native Americans are not responsible for the earth mounds, then who built them? Where these mounds & structures such as we see in Ohio built by the Hopewell culture or Nephilim?

Let’s examine what we know. There are some 300 historical accounts of giant skeletons in the Ohio Valley alone with Hebrew script and Sumerian symbolism documented in "The Nephilim Chronicles: Fallen Angels in the Ohio Valley" by Fritz Zimmerman. Why were these earthworks built and what were they used for? Many archaeologists believe that the Hopewell culture used the earthworks as places of ceremony, social gathering, trade, and worship, and as cemeteries. Ohio Historical Society Archaeologist Brad Lepper thinks that the Hopewell built these ceremonial spaces on such a large scale because they weren't built just for the needs of the locals but for people from hundreds if not thousands of miles away.¹¹ This begs the question. Were they built for the Nephilim?

There is a much bigger picture that is emerging when researching the mounds of Ohio, Cahokia, and Newark. Cahokia was the largest and most influential urban settlement in the Mississippian culture which developed advanced societies across much of what is now the Southeastern United States, beginning more than 500 years before European contact.¹² Today, the Cahokia Mounds is considered the largest and most complex archaeological site north of the great Pre-Columbian cities in Mexico. It is the largest prehistoric earthen construction in the Americas north of Mexico.¹³ There are more than 120 earthen mounds in the city, 109 of which have been recorded and 68 of which are preserved within the site. While some are no more than a gentle rise on the land, others reach 100 feet into the sky. It is estimated that more than 50 million cubic feet of earth was moved for the construction of the mounds, leaving large depressions called borrow pits, which can still be seen in the area. Three types of mounds were constructed, the most common of which is a platform mound, thought to have been used as monumental structures for political or religious ceremonies and may have once been topped by large buildings. Conical and ridge top mounds were also constructed for use as burial locations or marking important locations similar to the Ohio mounds. At the center of the historical site is the largest earthwork called Monks Mound. At one hundred feet high, 1,000 feet long, and 800 feet wide; it is the largest prehistoric earthen mound in North America.

The Newark Earthworks in Newark and Heath, Ohio, consists of three sections of preserved earthworks: the Great Circle Earthworks, the Octagon Earthworks, and the Wright Earthworks. This complex contained the largest earthen enclosures in the world, being about 3,000 acres in extent. Today, the site itself covers about 206 acres.

The 1,054-foot wide Great Circle is the largest circular earthwork in the Americas. Research has revealed that whoever built the Great Circle earthwork had advanced scientific understanding as the basis of their complex construction. Scholars have also demonstrated that the Octagon Earthworks comprise a complex lunar observatory for tracking the moon's orbit during its 18.6-year cycle. The moon then rises within one-half of a degree of the octagon's exact center and is twice as precise as Stonehenge. The Wright Earthworks consist of a fragment of a geometrically near-perfect square enclosure and part of one wall that originally formed a set of parallel embankments, which led from the square to a large oval enclosure. Originally, the sides of the Newark square ranged from about 940 to 950 feet in length, and they enclosed a total area of about 20 acres.¹⁴

So the question still stands? Is what we know about the early history of North America correct? The answer is undoubtedly- NO. I host a show called, “FringePop 321” where I investigate the fringe topics such as the hidden history of mankind’s past and things you won’t learn in church such as the Nephilim, the Divine Council and much more. I made a film documentary on paleo-Hebrew script found in the New Mexico desert called “Hidden Mt. & the Los Lunas Mystery Stone”. You may ask, “Why don’t we know about things like this”? “Why is the public kept in the dark about these issues?” Let me answer that for you- he who controls the past; controls the future. And the future is being controlled by the elite without our best interest at heart. They are literally rewriting history in favor for their own agenda for the world. That is a NEW WORLD ORDER. And it’s coming sooner than the think. There are too many unanswered questions regarding the origin of these mounds to simply conclude they were constructed by Native Americans. Like it or not, the Nephilim giants may be linked to these sites thereby challenging the mainstream consensus. The archaeological and historical evidence is proving that indeed there is ample evidence of pre-Columbian giant occupation in North America. And the Nephilim will return!
