8 Foot Giants Grave on Lundy Island Discovered On the Same Latitude of Stonehenge
8 Foot Giants Grave on Lundy Island Discovered On the Same Latitude of Stonehenge
Amorite (Nephilim) metal traders leaves another clue to their knowledge of navigation and to have placed grid lines across the globe.
The Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Magazine, 1876
Very different was the stature of some skeletons found at Lundy Island, in the Bristol Channel, a few years ago, of which the writer procured the following account for Dr. Thurnam from the son of Mr. Heaven, the chief resident on the island: "The skeletons were found on the top of the island, about 2 feet underground, in digging foundations for a wall for farm buildings. The number of the more perfect skeletons was seven, lying in a row with the heads to the West. The first in the row, a male, measured 8 feet 5 inches ; by the head were placed two upright stones with the head lying in a little hollow, and protected by a third stone. None of the others had any appearance of coffins by them but great numbers of limpet shells. The one measured was measured by my father, by whose orders the remains were buried again, but I am afraid much injured by the workmen in doing so. Some pottery and some beads were found with them, Mr. Etheridge, then curator of the British Institution, showed some of the pottery to a friend of his, an antiquary, I believe, who said it was undoubtedly the Ancient British.

Giants and Pygmy Race Buried Side by Side in Shawneetown Illinois

SKELETON OF A GIANT
Harrisburg, Ill. While digging a well on the old Inmann factory lot, near Shawneetown, a few days ago, Sanford K. Jenkins unearthed several skeletons and old Indian relics. In a space 8 feet square Jenkins took out fourteen skeletons and six vessels of different sizes. One peculiar and remarkable thing about the skeletons were the size. One skeleton was that of a giant, which measured fully 8 feet in height, while right near this one was found the skull of an adult not larger than that of a 4-year-old child and was perhaps the remains of a pigmy. While the ground is near the old Indian mound and is supposed to have been the burying-ground of the Indians in early days, it is thought by some of the older citizens that they were buried over a thousand years ago, before Indians inhabited this country.
