Skeletons of giant people. ancient civilizations. Giant people are the ancient inhabitants of the Earth. Giants in legends and myths

Did a population of giant people live on Earth and where did it survive? Where did the giant skull found in the Kremlin go?

Paleoanthropologist Alexander Belov says that giants on the planet today are not uncommon. But where did they come from? Why are amazing archaeological finds left unattended: mummies of giants in Texas, bones of giant people in Ecuador, 2.40-2.45 cm tall, burials of giants in pyramids? Why are scientists, faced with these findings, already talking about the population, and not about gigantism caused by a malfunction of the pituitary gland? Did the Portuguese meet giant Indians during the conquest of America? Where is a stump of a human bone, 3.5 meters tall, kept? Could this bone be 10 million years old? Does the existence of a population of giant people prove another unique find - a Boskop skull weighing about 2 kg? Where are huge human teeth found that are thought to be dragon teeth? Could the Gigantopithecus reach a height of 5 meters and weigh half a ton? Where did the giant skull found in the Kremlin go? Why are the remains so poorly preserved in our forest-steppe territory, in contrast to the African Rift Plain? Where are the populations of giants preserved on the planet today?

Belov Alexander: In Ecuador, anthropologists have recently discovered the bones of giant people, there is a whole population there. At least 5 skeletons are known to be quite complete, it's 2.40-2.45 somewhere. This, of course, is not God knows what, but this is a population, that is, it is not pituitary gigantism, when a developmental anomaly, a person grows up, because he has somatotropin hormones, it causes increased growth of the bones of the face, feet, and so on. This is a population, this is very important, that is, this is a group that breeds, their gigantism is fixed on genetic level. In principle, they began to study this as a phenomenon, they immediately remembered the finds of 1913 in Lovelock, there, if I’m not mistaken, the state of Texas, mummies of giant people were also found there, archaeologists took up this, but since there were mummy, in general, some of these the finds were damaged and stolen by local residents, while archaeologists got there, 4 skulls remained, they are in storerooms in the Lovelock Museum. These are such skulls, they are much larger than modern skulls, there are Americanoids, of course, but, nevertheless, they are 30 centimeters high, these skulls. And in fact we have the same with the population.

There is also information about tombs, about different burials, giants are found in the pyramids, 2.40-2.50 like that. That is, that there are such documentary engravings, when the Portuguese conquered America, they just met these giant Indians of some kind, they were a meter taller than them, at least. And the engravings have been preserved, that's just such a level. It was in Patagonia, there are just such engravings of that time in the 16th century. And there are some skeletons, bones, some ribs in museums, or rather, gigantic ones were kept in the temples of the Incas. That is, in America it is, in general, apparently it is necessary to say that there was simply a population of giant people. How it happened is also a big question, either they became giants for the second time, or primarily. That people can become giants is undoubtedly a fact. Maybe they lead some kind of population of their own, their kind from giants. For example, a bone has been preserved, a femur found near Johannesburg, it is in the hands of anthropologists, this is Francis Thackeray, such a researcher, he is the director of the Institute of Evolutionary Morphology and the president of the Paleontological Society of South Africa, and he actually keeps this bone in his anatomical school in Johannesburg and he shows it. There is a fifteen-minute video in English, you can watch this bone, it is chopped off, somewhere this bone is chopped off like this, he himself is a morphologist, he explains well, very clearly that it is really gigantic, it is big, about 3-4 times larger than a similar stump of modern bone modern man. In fact, he was 3.5 meters, 3.6 meters, and so, according to his data, he is just a morphologist. I contacted him, asked him to make a 3D reconstruction of this bone, but he sent me to other people. In general, there is also a noticeable pressure on him, despite the fact that he is the director of the institute and the president of the Paleontological Society, such things are simply not forgiven. I still wonder how he even dared to do such a thing. This bone was found in the 1960s in an anadium mine by geologists, and according to the geological age, it is a petrified bone, that is, this already indicates a considerable age, at least more than 2 million, and according to the age of geological rocks, it dates somewhere 10 million years. And you yourself understand, the human bone of a giant is 10 million years old, and here we can’t deal with African Australopithecus, but naturally they all refute it, completely refute it, which means that there was some kind of population. There is also the Boskop type, the so-called Boskop giants, there are several skulls left, it is believed that they were the predecessors of the Bushmen, but this is about thirty, ten thousand years old, the Boskop skull is stored in the Darwin Museum, but it has more than 2 kilograms, a large cranium, very large, with developed frontal, parietal lobes of the brain. But the modern Bushmen who live there, they have 2 times less of all this.

To say that there was no population of giants is, of course, a bluff, they just try not to say it. The famous Dutch paleontologist Koenigswald, he studied, he found several teeth in a Hong Kong pharmacy, bought them, and these were human teeth, they were 6 times larger, that is, the molars are 6 times larger than human teeth, with roots, everything, that is, human enamel. He began to study, the remains were discovered, they, together with another scientist Wandenreich, singled out such a type, he was called the "gigantoro antro Black", that is, the giant man of Black. "Black", this is by the name of the sponsor of the finds, in fact, part was lost, in the Second World War it all disappeared, due to shipments and other things. He hid, Koenigswald, he himself was in a Japanese concentration camp, he hid it all in a bottle and buried it somewhere in the house. After the war, they began to study this and found some fragments of skulls already in Indonesia. At first he was called "Meganthrope", then his name was renamed. A meganthrope is a big man, and in fact he was also, according to modern estimates, this meganthrope, 3-5 meters like that, if similar. It's just that there are fragments, there is no complete skeleton, of course, so approximately 3-5 meters, somewhere near it. Then there were excavations already in Königswald, the Wandenreich continued after the war, they were in Chinese caves, Gigantopithecus caves, the so-called. Here are the caves of the Gigantopithecus, they are in Berma, they are not only in China, in the region of the Sivali Hills, on the border of India, Pakistan and China, in fact, bones were found there, but mostly teeth, a lot of teeth, teeth of giants, and jaws, mandibles, they are of such a human type, not ape, very reduced fangs. And in general, it is clear that in the early Gigantopithecus, they had a more human morphology, and in the later ones, more monkeyish, that is, they have a diastema, a gap between the teeth for insertions, that is, the fangs increase, and the jaw acquires a more monkey U-shaped shape . This suggests that this degradation was also in the Gigantopithecus line, they lead their genus from, apparently, giant people. Moreover, the early Gigantopithecus, they are more modest in size, and the later ones, they are more so, quite gigantic, there are about 3, some researchers give them a height of 4 and 5 meters. Here is our Soviet researcher Yakimov, he believed that Gigantopithecus, Meganthropes, this population reached 5 meters and weighed half a ton, this individual. But then anthropologists changed their attitude, firstly, this is all partly hushed up, and secondly, they say that the teeth are large, the jaws are large, and since nothing was found, it can be like paranthropes. There were big teeth in paranthropes, massive australopithecines, everything else was rather modest, they say, they also have these kind of things, but in fact they were not that big, two with a cap, and that's it. But such logical reasoning, if they wanted to, they would have gone and dug it up long ago, but since no excavations are being carried out there, I think they can be found there for sure, especially in the Gigantopithecus caves, it’s just that the locals collect it all. They think they have a belief that these are dragon teeth, they grind it all into powder, these dragon teeth, and add it to food, that is, they have such a medicine. That is, they did not grind a single jaw, not a single skeleton in this way, so you can even redeem from them, if you had money. I even had an acquaintance, Kashnitsky, he worked at MK, one businessman offered him to look at the bones, he went, even, in my opinion, he made a report about this bone, he went to MK, that was 15-20 years ago . The femur is large, he keeps it, a businessman, but, unfortunately, I didn’t see this bone, I don’t know, it’s a fake, not a fake, maybe it’s real. There is something found in the Moscow Kremlin, a giant skull, the same Kashnitsky told me about it. A giant skull, it is not so complete, of course, but still, and they studied this case, there is also no data, where he went, where he is now, it is not clear. Kashnitsky has already died.

There were finds, also already associated with the territory modern Russia, of course, there were, but somehow I don’t really remember, we just have poor safety of human finds here, we don’t have such a rift as in the African desert in East Africa, where it all lies on the surface, a fossil, when it diverges there, and all the layers are opened up, we don’t have this. Forest-steppe, it does not contribute to the preservation of the remains, that is, all this rots quietly. And then, there were some, I just don’t remember now, there was some evidence that they even participated in Turkish, in Mongolian yoke, the so-called, there were just like that, they were called "devas", they participated in the army, literally there were Tamerlanes and other different ones. This is typical for all earlier campaigns of the Iranian kings, here in Scythian the same thing, they had some kind of unit where these giants with chains, roughly speaking, so that they would not run away, they used them as such powerful gladiators. There is a giant population in Balochistan, in this area, there is also in the Pamirs, giants also live, they are more than two meters, and there are Pamirs, and India, there is a city there, but not far, this is Northern India, and there is also a population there giants, they are also more than two meters, they are all the time recruited here in this guard of this palace in Delhi, these are just local residents. They are Caucasoids, but they are all Caucasoids, Indians, they just have such Caucasoid features to a greater extent. And there is a photo of the 19th century, when different Europeans were photographed with them, and even the beginning of the 20th, here they are somewhere even shoulders, not just shoulders, but even chest-deep, waist-deep for these giants, and they are with guns with such, with with their turbans, they guard this Delhi palace. Ubuntu Bantu, this nationality, it is also considered to be quite tall, tall, there is, but also in other places on the planet, that is, in general, this is not such a rarity, giants. Another thing is where and how they came from, this is a big question.

Giant skeletons and more...

Descriptions of giants can be found not only in the legends of Australia, Belgium, Chad, Chile, China, England, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, India, Italy, Kazakhstan, Laos, Saffiano, the Netherlands, Nova Scotia, Pakistan, Philippines, Poland, Rwanda , Russia, Scotland, Sicily, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Wales, Zanzibar, but also in the historical chronicles of the 19th century, in which skeletons of people of abnormally high growth are often reported in different parts of the globe.

I must say that this photo is one of the few genuine ones, compared to the number of fakes and outright falsifications that are circulating on the net, and which you have probably seen. Where truth and lies are sometimes difficult to distinguish here, Photoshop is easy to use, and the result can be very believable. However, even before the invention of this wonderful program of fakes of this kind

enough has been carved. As if someone set out to deliberately make them in order to “expose” them on occasion. A simple method of concealing information, which is now widely used, and allowing the recipient to accept helpfully and unobtrusively, and usually anonymously given half-lie for the truth, and after "revealing" on this basis, completely discredit the truth in general, and even calling it a buzzword " freaking”, which became a label. Treat the recipient in this way, abandoning the “carrot”, make fun of him, making him a “patient”, so that he does not stutter anymore.

There are few material artifacts left by the "true man" (Nam Lu U, as the Sumerians called him). But they are. Archaeologists regularly dig up huge bones and skulls.

But on the site http://lah.ru I read a curious story, illustrated with photographs and documents, of how archaeologists are burying giant human bones that they have just unearthed. Obviously, there is an “unformat” in archeology, and one of the high-ranking “colleagues” can always say - “get out of the profession.” The crisis of the genre, however. Everyone wants to eat.

I happened to read an article about fifteen or twenty years ago, the epigraph of which I remember somehow like this - “. .and people marvel at the huge bones of our ancestors”- it, among other things, mentioned a 20-meter human skeleton stored in the Vatican. It was brought from America by the Spaniards, who believe that they found the remains of Adam. There were also photographs. I started searching the net - I didn’t find anything worthy of a link - there is a mention, yes, but always with an addition, like - “allegedly”. But hardly anyone doubts that there are many skeletons in the cabinets of the Vatican.

The missionaries who accompanied the conquistadors sent a lot of things to Rome. Most of the messages and manuscripts written during their activities in America have become "closed literature", ex-files. And the artifacts have not yet become the property of historians and scientists - perhaps there are some good reasons. Access to the vaults of the Vatican is closed to uninitiated laymen.

Although historians are now so gone that they write not about what was once, but fantasy stories, for which they pay - that's what they write. There is a lot of indirect information that some archaeological research centers have begun to hide the information obtained about ancient peoples and finds. Bones-turtles, of course, are not the most important thing - the artifacts obtained along the way and the knowledge that those who became bones owned were more interesting. In general, as they say, “if something is known to such groups of researchers as the Chicago Society, then there is nothing left to catch the world community.”

It should be noted that not only the bones of the "true man" are destroyed and buried, but even the sculptures of giants, if the "world community" is not particularly aware of them. For example: 180 kilometers from Victorias on the Pacific coast of Guatemala in the 50s, a giant statue was discovered, with facial features uncharacteristic for the local population, grown into the ground. The photo ended up in the local press. And even one of the scientists came then.

But the attempts made to photograph the sculpture after 50 years ended in failure. Only a pile of debris was waiting for the explorers. They explained that, they say, that the revolutionaries destroyed it. What for it was necessary for revolutionaries? The statue stood for who knows how long, it grew into the ground, did not bother anyone, and no one saw it "somewhere in the jungle of Guatemala" - they came, cutting down vines, revolutionaries and blew it up. Oh those revolutionaries. I immediately remember the marauders in the Iraqi Museum and the entertainment of Napoleon, who gave the order to fire cannons at the Sphinx. They didn’t destroy it, but the nose was beaten off and the muzzle of the face was severely crippled. How to take revenge for something.

Or suddenly, these revolutionary Taliban for no reason destroyed the peacefully dormant statue of a giant Buddha. Actually, there were 5 stone figures: one of normal height, another 6 meters, the third 18, the fourth 38 meters and the last 54 meters. It won't tell anyone anything. Just think - they say, the ancestors had plenty of fantasies, there was no TV, but there was nothing to do - so they practiced stone carving as best they could.

By the way, the farther back in antiquity, the more surprising is the "gigantomania" of the ancestors. Who needed it? What a pleasure it is to work granite with almost flint axes? And is it even possible? The processing accuracy of 800-ton Baalbek blocks is such that there are no gaps between them, and the surfaces are perfectly smooth. Historians who are "turretless" claim they were sawn by hand with copper saws. Yeah. On the other hand, what else can you say? What was it impossible to do then, and now it is very difficult? Yes, here they are these pebbles - feel them. To believe that the stones themselves came and lay down as needed with the help of magic? Well-developed technology is indistinguishable from magic. And magic is a well-developed technology. Know-how, that is, unlike those who don't know

There, 20 km from the Baalbek veranda, a granite block 25 m long and weighing 1000 tons is lying in a quarry. For comparison, a standard freight car carries 60 tons of cargo. Note that the ruins of a Roman temple built on this ancient foundation are made up of relatively modest pebbles. It is the same in Egypt - the older the building, the greater the weight of the "building material" and the more perfect it is in processing - and the larger the size of the buildings. It can only be stated that the antediluvian building technologies of the period called “prehistoric” differ sharply and are much more perfect than the later ones. Degradation is clearly seen in the example of Egypt. Transportation and processing of multi-ton slabs, from which miraculously preserved structures are built, was a common occurrence in antiquity. A number of cyclopean structures tell us that they may have been a match for their builders. As they say, in Karnak, in one of the numerous halls of the palace, now representing ruins, and having one hundred and forty columns, Notre Dame Cathedral could easily fit without reaching the ceiling.

All peoples had legends about giants that have come down to us in one form or another. Giants and titans, of course, with their growth should have had an appropriate life expectancy.
Among the Greeks, the titans who inhabited the Earth were forced to fight with the gods.
The giants Svyatogor, Usynya, Dobrynya, Gorynya are among our ancestors. In Russian epics, unlike some other peoples, relations with the giants developed peacefully and even in a friendly way.
The Ossetian epic "Tales of the Narts" tells about the struggle of the Narts with the giants. They were called Waigi.
In the mythology of the American peoples, the giants were the forerunners of those who created the first civilizations.
The Aztecs believed that the earth was inhabited by giants during the era of the First Sun. They called the ancient people "Kiname", believing that they erected giant pyramids.
We can find images of giants and legends about them both in ancient Cambodia and in China.
Clay tablets claim that the priests of Babylon received their knowledge from giant people who escaped from the Holocaust. I mean flood, of course.
Few people know about the Egyptian giants - their statues can be seen even now. Well, the gods - Seth and his sons, for example. Question. Have you ever wondered how, at best, with copper tools, you can turn a 200-ton block of granite into a sculpture polished to a shine?

The Bible also writes about the giants who inhabited our planet in the past.

Start over. The Lord places Adam in the Garden of Eden to cultivate it and keep his(Gen. 2:15),

The Sumerian chronicles tell about the same thing - True Nam-lu-u man was created by the Kadishtu Life Designers to look after the animals of the planetary garden.

This begs the question, where was the Garden of Eden located? Paradise? What do we even know about Ray? Have you ever thought about this? Wasn't the Earth this planetary garden?

« At that time were on the ground giants, especially since the time when the sons of God began to enter into the daughters of men, and they began to bear them: These are strong, glorious people from ancient times.” Gen 6:4.

C strong, since ancient times glorious people. Approximately the same as the Sumerians -Nam-Lu-U Acted as guardians of the Earth until the arrival of the Anunnu. - Nam-Lu-U is the pool of vitality, knowledge and genetics of the Life Designers. Nice people. In addition, they had the ability to move in space outside the body and in the body - fly, levitate, telepathic abilities, the third eye. And they were giants. A slightly wider characterization than in the Bible. Nam-Lu-U were called "immeasurable" beings. And about Adam, some sources write that his body stretched from earth to heaven, i.e. it was also "immeasurable". And only during the fall and expulsion from Ryan, the Earth decreased. Of course, the above is not to be taken literally. But the Bible also contains quite certain numbers.

“Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his likeness, in his own image, and called his name: Seth. The days of Adam after he begat Seth were eight hundred years, and he begat sons and daughters. All the days of Adam's life were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died."

The life of his immediate descendants was just as long, but after mixing with the sons of God, it became less and less long. People began to "degenerate". (We will return to the question of the sons of God later, in the next, 12th part). A certain, then part of the giant people in the Jewish tradition was called "gibborim" (strong), and the other "rephaim" - the well-known Goliath was one of them.

In 1718, the French academic Henrion built a mathematical table based on the study of ancient measures and Bible data, thus tracing the evolution of human growth. According to his calculations, Adam was about 40 m tall. The degeneration became evident already in the time of Noah, who was 33.37 meters tall. The farther, the worse: Abraham - only 9 m, Moses - 4 m. His conclusions are paradoxical - humanity would have to degenerate to the size of mice, if not for the coming of the Messiah.

Whether this is so or not, whether this is the reason - it is difficult to say. In fact, the Earth was once inhabited by giants. Everyone has heard about dinosaurs and Gigantopithecus, but not so much about meganthropes.

Obviously, this was the biosphere - favorable natural conditions, a high content of oxygen in the atmosphere, which ensures a healthy metabolism, a low content of carbon dioxide - the planet until a certain moment, before the first Catastrophe, was covered with lush, multi-tiered and gigantic vegetation. Well, the pressure should be more at the same time. So it was - froze The pressure in the air bubbles in amber showed 8 atmospheres, and the oxygen content was 38%. Therefore, the birds were gigantic - there was something to rely on for the wings. Subsequently, the birds became sparrows, and which were larger than ostriches and fat penguins. With such a density of the atmosphere, the air element was thoroughly mastered by life, and flight was a normal phenomenon. Everyone flew: both those who had wings and those who did not have them.

Many people have dreams in which they fly, perhaps this is a subconscious deja vu.

But back to the Bible:

[Wisdom 14:6] For even at the beginning, when the proud giants were destroyed, the hope of the world, ruled by Your hand, resorting to the ship, left the seed of the world to the world.
[ Var 3 ] 26 From the beginning there were glorious giants, very great, skilled in war.
27 But God did not choose them, nor did he reveal to them the ways of wisdom;
28 And they perished because they did not have wisdom, they perished because of their foolishness.
You once destroyed those who did iniquity, among whom were giants who hoped for strength and audacity, and brought immeasurable water on them.

And after the flood:
33 And they spread a wicked rumor about the land which they were surveying among the children of Israel, saying, The land which we passed through to survey is a land that devours those who dwell in it, and all the people that we saw in its midst, people of great stature;
34 There we also saw giants, the sons of Anak, from a gigantic family; and we were like locusts in our eyes before them, so were we in their eyes. (Num. 13:33,34)

And now let's return again to that photograph of the alleged "Nephilim". Decline the word "nephilim" is not correct - "nephilim" is plural. The word "nephilim" means "fallen." Fallen to Earth. And the Sumerian "Anunnaki" - "those who fell from Heaven." One and the same, if we take into account the obvious continuity. But the "fallen angels" did not look like that at all. Is in the Apocrypha of Enoch detailed description and Nephilim and Elohim.

Giant people - the ancient inhabitants of the Earth

Historical chronicles of the 19th century often report finds in different parts of the world of skeletons of people of abnormally tall stature.

giant skeletons

In 1821, in the United States in Tennessee, the ruins of an ancient stone wall were found, and under it were two human skeletons 215 centimeters tall. In Wisconsin, during the construction of a granary in 1879, huge vertebrae and skull bones were found "of incredible thickness and size," according to a newspaper article.

In 1883, several burial mounds were discovered in Utah, in which there were burials of people of very tall stature - 195 centimeters, which is at least 30 centimeters higher than the average height of the Aboriginal Indians. The latter did not make these burials and could not provide any information about them. In 1885, in Gusterville (Pennsylvania), a stone crypt was discovered in a large grave mound, in which there was a skeleton 215 centimeters high. Primitive images of people, birds and animals were carved on the walls of the crypt.

In 1899, miners in the Ruhr region in Germany discovered fossilized skeletons of people ranging in height from 210 to 240 centimeters.

In 1890, in Egypt, archaeologists found a stone sarcophagus with a clay coffin inside, which contained the mummies of a two-meter red-haired woman and a baby. The features of the face and the addition of the mummies differed sharply from the ancient Egyptians. Similar mummies of a man and a woman with red hair were discovered in 1912 in Lovelok (Nevada) in a cave carved into the rock. The growth of a mummified woman during her lifetime was two meters, and men - about three meters.

Australian finds

In 1930, near Basharst, Australia, jasper miners often found fossilized imprints of huge human feet. The race of giant people, whose remains were found in Australia, anthropologists called meganthropus. The growth of these people ranged from 210 to 365 centimeters. Megantropuses are similar to Gigantopithecus, the remains of which were found in China. Judging by the fragments of jaws and many teeth found, the growth of Chinese giants was 3 to 3.5 meters, and the weight was 400 kilograms Near Basarst, in river sediments, there were stone artifacts of enormous weight and size - clubs , plows, chisels, knives and axes. Modern Homo sapiens I would hardly be able to work with tools weighing from 4 to 9 kilograms.

An anthropological expedition, which specifically investigated the area in 1985 for the presence of the remains of megantropus, excavated at a depth of up to three meters from the surface of the earth. Australian researchers found, among other things, a petrified molar 67 mm high and 42 mm wide. The owner of the tooth had to be at least 7.5 meters tall and weigh 370 kilograms! Hydrocarbon analysis determined the age of the finds, amounting to nine million years.

Three huge footprints 60 centimeters long and 17 wide were found near Malgoa. The giant's step length was measured 130 centimeters. Traces were preserved in the petrified lava for millions of years, even before Homo sapiens appeared on the Australian continent (if the theory of evolution is considered correct). Huge footprints are also found in the limestone bed of the Upper Maclay River. The fingerprints of these footprints are 10 cm long and the width of the foot is 25 cm. Obviously, the Australian Aborigines were not the first inhabitants of the continent. It is interesting that in their folklore there are legends about giant people who once lived in these territories.

Other evidence of giants

In one of the old books, entitled "History and Antiquity", now stored in the library of Oxford University, there is an account of the discovery of a giant skeleton, made in the Middle Ages in Cumberland. “The giant is buried to a depth of four yards and is in full military dress. His sword and battle ax rest next to him. The length of the skeleton is 4.5 yards (4 meters), and the teeth " big man"measured 6.5 inches (17 centimeters)"

In 1877, near Eureka, Nevada, prospectors were working for gold panning in a deserted, hilly region. One of the workers accidentally noticed something sticking out above the ledge of the cliff. People climbed a rock and were surprised to find the human bones of the foot and lower leg, along with the patella. The bone was immured in the rock, and the prospectors freed it from the rock with picks. Assessing the unusualness of the find, the workers delivered it to Evreka. The stone, in which the rest of the leg was embedded, was quartzite, and the bones themselves turned black, which betrayed their considerable age. The leg was broken above the knee and was knee-joint and completely preserved bones of the lower leg and foot. Several doctors examined the bones and came to the conclusion that the leg undoubtedly belonged to a person. But the most intriguing aspect of the find was the size of the leg - 97 centimeters from the knee to the foot. The owner of this limb during his lifetime had a height of 3 meters 60 centimeters. Even more mysterious was the age of the quartzite in which the fossil was found - 185 million years, the era of dinosaurs. Local newspapers vied with each other to report the sensation. One of the museums sent researchers to the place of discovery in the hope of finding the rest of the skeleton. But, unfortunately, nothing more was found.

In 1936, the German paleontologist and anthropologist Larson Kohl found the skeletons of giant people on the shores of Lake Elisey in Central Africa. 12 men buried in a mass grave had a height of 350 to 375 centimeters during their lifetime. Curiously, their skulls had sloping chins and two rows of upper and lower teeth.

There is evidence that during the Second World War in Poland, during the burial of the executed, a fossilized skull 55 centimeters high was found, that is, almost three times more than that of a modern adult. The giant to whom the skull belonged had very proportional features and was at least 3.5 meters tall.

giant skulls

Ivan T. Sanderson, a renowned zoologist and frequent guest on the popular 1960s American show Tonight, once shared with the public curious story about a letter he had received from a certain Alan McShir. The author of the letter in 1950 worked as a bulldozer operator on the construction of a road in Alaska. He reported that the workers found two huge fossilized skulls, vertebrae and leg bones in one of the grave mounds. The skulls were 58 cm high and 30 cm wide. The ancient giants had a double row of teeth and disproportionately flat heads. Each skull had a neat round hole in the upper part. North America. The vertebrae, as well as the skulls, were three times larger than those of modern humans. The length of the leg bones ranged from 150 to 180 centimeters.

AT South Africa in diamond mining in 1950, a fragment of a huge skull 45 centimeters high was discovered. Above the superciliary arches were two strange protrusions resembling small horns. Anthropologists, in whose hands the find fell, determined the age of the skull - about nine million years.

There is not quite reliable evidence of the finds of huge skulls in Southeast Asia and on the islands of Oceania.

The world famous and trustworthy Smithsonian Institution was reported to have been accused of litigation in hiding information and evidence about giant people, the remains of which were found during excavations.
Some of their skulls may have had horns, others double rows of teeth! Some supposedly had six fingers and elongated heads and carried giant weapons. A U.S. Supreme Court ruling forced the world's largest museum to release secret documents from early 19th-century archives about these strange artifacts.

It was also said that there is evidence - thousands giant skeletons between 183 and 366 centimeters (6–12 feet) have been excavated throughout the United States. Indeed, there are a surprising number of reports of giant skeletons in the old newspapers. Nevertheless, these messages cause healthy skepticism.

Human skulls with horns

Several creepy horned human skulls and 213 cm (7") skeletons were said to have been found.
Human remains were allegedly excavated from an ancient burial mound near Cyre, Pennsylvania in the 1880s.
The horns were about 5 centimeters (2 inches) long, pointed and extended above the eyebrows. The excavations were believed to have been made by a trusted team of explorers, including Dr. G. P. Donehoo, who was the State Historian of Pennsylvania, and two professors, A. B. Skinner and W. K. Morehead.
These remains are thought to date from around 1200 AD. They ended up in Philadelphia at the American Investigation Museum, but apparently stolen and not shown to the general public.
There have been claims of horned human skulls excavated in Texas and New York.

Mysterious Iowa Hills

Archaeologists have come across some very strange things as they begin to excavate Native American burial mounds around Iowa. A newspaper article from 1897 writes in an official report that scientists have dug up the bones of a giant human skeleton measuring 229 cm.
Unfortunately, the bones crumbled into dust in the air, but the team found many artifacts near the remains. These artifacts indicate that the person had a high status.
In another hill in Iowa, archaeologists allegedly discovered a large chamber in which they found 11 skeletons, all kneeling with their backs to the walls around a giant shell from which they drank. Perhaps mass suicide? Also found a curious copper-colored fetid dust. It was the dust of cremated remains.

Giant of the Ozarks

In 1933, near Stalville, Missouri, a small resort town in the Ozarks, a local 16-year-old boy named Billy Harman discovered human remains in a pit (Puckett's Cave near the Meramec River). He was frightened by the sight of human bones and ran away. But later he reported his discovery. Archaeologists dug up a gigantic human skeleton 244 centimeters long there.

Prior to that, on January 21, 1899, the Miamisburg Daily Telegraph reported on a huge human skeleton found in Ohio.
Scientists estimate that the man was just over 244 cm (8 ft). The strange remains were excavated by Edward Kaufman and Edward Gebhart about 0.8 km (0.5 mi) from Miamisburg in an area known to contain early Native American barrow artifacts that lived in the area millennia ago.
What seemed to really puzzle archaeologists was that the bones were fossilized, indicating a very extreme (prehistoric) age. Another confusing issue was the physical appearance of the creature, which was said to be in proportion to a human but had a skull similar to that of a gorilla.

Giant San Diego

On October 7, 1895, The World newspaper reported that "the largest giant ever known" had been dug up near San Diego. The newspaper article described the discovery of a 274 cm mummified Native American and claimed that the find was witnessed by scientists such as Professor Thomas Wilson (curator of prehistoric anthropology at the Smithsonian Institution) and others.
At that time, there was no carbon-14 dating method yet, so they had to use local records that were kept for about 250 years. Scientists were puzzled by the fact that the archives did not mention people with this type of gigantism. (Of course, the Native American legend was not credited or reported in the papers.) The mummy was thought to be prehistoric and had the remains of some kind of hood on its head. They also determined that the creature was very old when it died.

Skeletons of Catalina Island

Between 1919 and 1928, an amateur archaeologist named Ralph Glidd is said to have excavated over 800 ancient burial sites at about 100 different sites, all on Catalina Island. He allegedly unearthed many thousands of artifacts and nearly 4,000 human skeletons. According to him, the average height of male skeletons is 213 cm (7 ft), and the tallest is over 274 centimeters (9 ft).
Most people think that he was just bullying people to make money, but it is not known for sure.

Mystery in Wisconsin

On May 4, 1912, the New York Times reported the discovery of 18 giant skeletons in southwestern Wisconsin. The human remains were unearthed by the Peterson Brothers, near Delavan Lake, with "a few strange and bizarre features". Standing 231 to 305 centimeters (7"7"-10") tall, with huge elongated skulls larger than any other North American race known at the time.
Many of the skulls had double rows of teeth.
Another New York Times article dated August 10, 1891, reported the discovery by the Smithsonian of pyramidal monuments at Mills Lake, near Madison, Wisconsin. According to scientists time, Madison used to be huge locality(which they dubbed "Fort Azalan"), which had at least 200,000 inhabitants.

Another skeleton with two rows of teeth

In 1833, a 366-centimeter (12-foot) human skeleton was allegedly discovered by accident by soldiers who were digging an ammunition dump near Lompoc Ranch, California. The skull had a double row of teeth and was surrounded by artifacts indicating high status. There were also porphyry blocks with strange markings and designs on them, which also puzzled scientists at the time.
There is not much documentation for this unusual find, and this, too, is not surprising, given the implications for mainstream science.

Giant skeleton found in Australia

Believe it or not, in 2015 it was reported that the largest human skeleton ever found was discovered near Ayers Rock (the most mysterious site and the most sacred to Aboriginal people) in national park Uluru-Kata Tjuta in Australia. A team of archaeologists from the University of Adelaide allegedly unearthed a skeleton that was a whopping 528 centimeters (17"4") tall! Professor Hans Zimmer of the University of Adelaide was forced to admit: “The discoveries at Uluru took us by surprise. Theoretically, a hominid 5 meters high cannot exist » Is this really true? If so, how could such a giant be possible? A supposed giant human specimen has been found near the only known megalithic ruin in Australia, further surprising scientists.

The largest and strangest human skeleton

An 1870 edition of the Oil City Times reported the discovery in West Hickory, Pennsylvania, not only of the largest human skeleton ever discovered, but also the strangest. The creature they unearthed was estimated to be an incredible 549cm (18ft) tall! Even stranger, they reportedly found a huge rusty iron helmet and a giant sword 2.8 meters (9 feet) long. They also reported that the skeleton was in excellent condition and very white, and that the teeth were all there and in place in the huge skull in two rows. Interestingly, the bones are said to have been excavated at a depth of 3.7 meters (12 feet), which makes sense. It would be logical to think that a body of this size would need to be buried much deeper than 1.8 meters (6 feet). , right?

And the historical chronicles of the 19th century often report on the finds in different parts of the globe of the skeletons of people of abnormally high growth.

In 1883, several burial mounds were discovered in Utah, in which there were burials of people of very tall stature - 195 centimeters, which is at least 30 centimeters above the average height of the Aboriginal Indians. The latter did not make these burials and could not provide any information about them. In 1885, in Gusterville (Pennsylvania), a stone crypt was discovered in a large grave mound, in which there was a skeleton 215 centimeters high. Primitive images of people, birds and animals were carved on the walls of the crypt.

In 1899, miners in the Ruhr region in Germany discovered fossilized skeletons of people ranging in height from 210 to 240 centimeters.

Australian finds

In 1930, near Basharst, Australia, jasper miners often found fossilized imprints of huge human feet. The race of giant people, whose remains were found in Australia, anthropologists called megantropus. The growth of these people ranged from 210 to 365 centimeters. Meganthropus are similar to Gigantopithecus, the remains of which were found in China. Judging by the fragments of jaws and many teeth found, the growth of Chinese giants was 3 to 3.5 meters, and the weight was 400 kilograms Near Basarst, in river deposits, there were stone artifacts of enormous weight and size - clubs, plows , chisels, knives and axes. Modern Homo sapiens would hardly be able to work with tools weighing from 4 to 9 kilograms.

In 1971, in Queensland, farmer Stephen Walker, while plowing his field, came across a large fragment of a jaw with teeth five centimeters high. In 1979, in Megalong Valley in the Blue Mountains, locals found a huge stone protruding above the surface of the stream, on which one could see the imprint of part of a huge foot with five fingers. The transverse size of the fingers was 17 centimeters. If the print had been preserved in its entirety, it would have been 60 cm long. It follows that the imprint was left by a man of six meters in height
Near Malgoa, three huge footprints were found, 60 centimeters long, 17 wide. The giant's step length was measured 130 centimeters. Traces were preserved in the petrified lava for millions of years, even before Homo sapiens appeared on the Australian continent (if the theory of evolution is considered correct). Huge footprints are also found in the limestone bed of the Upper Maclay River. The fingerprints of these footprints are 10 cm long and the width of the foot is 25 cm. Obviously, the Australian Aborigines were not the first inhabitants of the continent. It is interesting that in their folklore there are legends about giant people who once lived in these territories.

Other evidence of giants

In 1877, near Eureka, Nevada, prospectors were working for gold panning in a deserted, hilly region. One of the workers accidentally noticed something sticking out above the ledge of the cliff. People climbed a rock and were surprised to find the human bones of the foot and lower leg, along with the patella. The bone was immured in the rock, and the prospectors freed it from the rock with picks. Assessing the unusualness of the find, the workers delivered it to Evreka. The stone, in which the rest of the leg was embedded, was quartzite, and the bones themselves turned black, which betrayed their considerable age. The leg was broken above the knee and consisted of a knee joint and intact bones of the lower leg and foot. Several doctors examined the bones and came to the conclusion that the leg undoubtedly belonged to a person. But the most intriguing aspect of the find was the size of the leg - 97 centimeters from the knee to the foot. The owner of this limb during his lifetime had a height of 3 meters 60 centimeters. Even more mysterious was the age of the quartzite in which the fossil was found - 185 million years, the era of dinosaurs. Local newspapers vied with each other to report the sensation. One of the museums sent researchers to the place of discovery in the hope of finding the rest of the skeleton. But, unfortunately, nothing more was found.

giant skulls

Ivan T. Sanderson, a well-known zoologist and frequent guest on the popular 1960s American show Tonight, once shared with the public a curious story about a letter he received from a certain Alan McShir. The author of the letter in 1950 worked as a bulldozer operator on the construction of a road in Alaska. He reported that the workers found two huge fossilized skulls, vertebrae and leg bones in one of the grave mounds. The skulls were 58 cm high and 30 cm wide. Ancient giants had a double row of teeth and disproportionately flat heads. Each skull had a neat round hole in the upper part. It should be noted that the custom of deforming the skulls of babies in order to make the heads become elongated as they grow, existed among some Indian tribes of North America. The vertebrae, as well as the skulls, were three times larger than those of modern humans. The length of the leg bones ranged from 150 to 180 centimeters.

In South Africa, in diamond mining in 1950, a fragment of a huge skull 45 centimeters high was discovered. Above the superciliary arches were two strange protrusions resembling small horns. Anthropologists, in whose hands the find fell, determined the age of the skull - about nine million years.

There is not quite reliable evidence of the finds of huge skulls in Southeast Asia and on the islands of Oceania.

Official science is still distrustful of hypotheses about the existence of gigantic people in the past. However, numerous studies by enthusiasts may well change the usual picture of the history of mankind.

Mysterious remains

Traces of the existence of giant people have been discovered repeatedly over the centuries. Messages about found skulls or bones of abnormally large sizes came from different parts of the planet - the USA, Egypt, Armenia, China, India, Mongolia, Australia and even islands Pacific Ocean. True, now you will not surprise anyone with a human height of over two meters. As photographs show, in the 19th century there were people whose height significantly exceeded two meters.

However we are talking about the findings, which can be used to judge the much more impressive dimensions of humanoid individuals. In 1911, near Lovelock in the US state of Nevada, guano mining was suspended, as scientists were interested in the found human skeletons with a height of 3.5 meters.

Archaeologists were especially struck by the jaw discovered away from the full skeletons: its size was at least three times the jaw of an average person.
During the extraction of jasper in Australia, the remains of giant people were also found, significantly exceeding three meters in height. But the real sensation was a human tooth 67 millimeters high and 42 millimeters wide. Its owner had to be at least 6 meters tall.

Perhaps the most striking find was discovered by the Indian military. Found in a remote area of India "Empty Quarter" well-preserved skeletons reached a height of 12 meters! However, the place was immediately closed from prying eyes, allowing only a team of archaeologists to visit the ancient burial grounds.

Written sources

Information about giant people is contained in almost all known ancient texts - the Torah, the Bible, the Koran, the Vedas, as well as Chinese and Tibetan chronicles, Assyrian cuneiform tablets and Mayan writings.

In the book of the prophet Isaiah, there is a mention of how the Jews were sent by sea "to a strong and vigorous people, to a terrible people from the beginning to the present, to a tall and trampling people, whose land is cut by rivers."

But similar information is also found in later sources claiming historical authenticity. The Arab diplomat Ahmed ibn Fodlan in 922 described the remains of the murdered giant during his embassy in Volga Bulgaria: “and here I am near this man, and I see growth in him, measuring with my elbow, twelve cubits. And now he has a head - the biggest cauldron that ever happens. And the nose is more than a quarter, both eyes are huge, and the fingers are each more than a quarter.

If we assume that the elbow of the Arab traveler was modest in size, then the growth of the giant was in no way lower than 4 meters.
Interestingly, the story of Fodlan is indirectly confirmed by local legends about a whole tribe of giants, recorded in late XVIII century by Russian explorers of the Volga basin.

stone artifacts

Silent witnesses of the existence of giant people can be traces of their material culture. During excavations in Australia near the gigantic remains, impressive stone tools were found - plows, chisels, knives, clubs and axes, whose weight ranged from 4 to 9 kilograms.

Similar finds were made during excavations of ancient settlements in the Okavango Delta. In collection Historical Society The United States exhibited a bronze ax, the height of which exceeds 1 meter, and the length of the blade is half a meter. The weight of the find is 150 kilograms. A modern athlete would hardly have mastered such a tool.
Even more revealing artifacts indicating the possible presence of giants on our planet can serve as megalithic structures - we can find them on various continents. Of particular interest to scientists is the Lebanese Baalbek, which can only be called a city of giants. At least, researchers still cannot scientifically explain the appearance of stone slabs perfectly fitted to each other, weighing presumably up to 800 tons each.

Fake!

Between supporters and opponents of the existence of meganthropes in recent times a serious controversy unfolded, which does not accept compromises. So the anthropologist Maria Mednikova calls the information about the discovery of the bones of four-meter people an ordinary fake.

“From a formal point of view,” the scientist says, “it is not confirmed by documented archaeological excavations, there are no conclusions of specialists - anthropologists or forensic doctors - who could reasonably say what these bones are.

Cases of outright falsification also cause a negative reaction from the scientific community. Thus, the "skeleton of the giant Teutoboch" - the king of the Cimbri, which stood for several centuries in the French Museum of Natural History, turned out to be a fake skillfully composed of the bones of a mastodon. Revelations of modern finds are not uncommon when carefully examined, they turn out to be the remains of large mammals. Also, the “defenders of the giants” are discredited by the cases of photoshop that have become noticeably more frequent recently.

Habitat

The weak point of the theory of meganthropes is the current terrestrial conditions. Official science assures that with the current atmospheric pressure, oxygen level, gravity and other nuances, people with a height of over 3 meters simply would not have survived for purely biological reasons.

As confirmation of this, they cite as an example people suffering from gigantism - such people, as a rule, do not live for more than 40 years. However, their opponents have counterarguments. They believe that in the distant past, conditions on Earth were different, including gravity was lower and oxygen levels were about 50% higher.

The last figure is confirmed by the analysis of air bubbles "locked" in amber. Moreover, modern physicists have simulated conditions in which the force of gravity has become an order of magnitude lower than it is now. The conclusions are: weak gravity, low Atmosphere pressure and high oxygen content in the air contribute to the gigantization of biological species.

Here, official science does not particularly object - dinosaurs up to 30 meters high are a generally accepted fact. True, there is one more "but". The age of most machines of giant people is dated to millions of years, and during this time even the bones turn to dust, unless, of course, they are petrified.

"Borjomi Giants"

However, perhaps the giants lived not so long ago. The representative of the same official science, Georgian academician Abesalom Vekua, suggested that 3-meter people inhabited the Borjomi Gorge about 25 thousand years ago. The results of recent findings, in his opinion, could be sensational. “Pay attention to the femur,” the scientist says, “it differs from the bone of a modern person in its size and thickness. The skull is also much larger. These people lived and developed separately from the rest of civilization, and therefore differed in growth. In the scientific literature, they are referred to as giants, but there was no documentary evidence of this hypothesis. Thus, we stand on the threshold of a sensation. But this will be preceded by painstaking work.
