Your Daily Giant 8/16/2013


Today's Daily Giant comes from the National Labor Tribune, March 2 1899, pg 7. Another account of giant skeletons being unearthed in Michigan burial mounds is given.

"Michigan Giants of Old- During the investigation of the mounds in Pokagon township, Cass County, Mich., the bones of perhaps 100 persons were found in the center of one mound and under these, separated from his companions, were the bones of a man who in life must have been fully nine feet tall, occupying a sitting position, with his feet under him. A number of copper bodkins or pins, from two to three inches in length, were found and also pins made from the bones of a wolf. There were numerous copper hatches, two edged and sharp, one of which was wrapped in a linen cloth resembling in texture those of today."

Do you think you would misidentify hundreds of human bones for some other creature. Maybe the builders of the mound took a Mastodon skeleton and carved out and created a fake nine foot human skeleton. The matter of fact nature of so many of these accounts to me is very telling. The idea that sensationalism was a driving force behind many of these finds just doesn't hold water. It is obvious to the reasonable observer what is going on here, this is a reality and those whose world view can't deal with it, create all sorts of strange and illogical arguments to try and make it go away.
