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, Morocco, the Netherlands, Nova Scotia, Pakistan, Philippines, Poland, Rwanda , Russia, Scotland, Sicily, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Wales, Zanzibar, but also in historical chronicles of the 19th century, which often report finds in different parts globe skeletons of abnormally tall people.

I must say that this photograph is one of the few genuine ones, compared to the number of fakes and outright falsifications that circulate on the Internet, and which you have probably seen. Where truth and lies are sometimes difficult to distinguish - Photoshop is not difficult to use, and the result can be very believable. However, even before the invention of this wonderful program of fakes of this kind

enough was sculpted. As if someone set out to deliberately make them in order to “expose” them on occasion. A simple technique for hiding information, which is now widely used, and allows the recipient to accept helpfully and unobtrusively, and usually anonymously, a half-lie as the truth, and after “exposure” on this basis, completely discredit the truth in general, and even calling it a buzzword “ freaking out,” which became a label. Treat the recipient in this way, throwing out the “carrot”, ridicule him, making him a “patient” so that he no longer stutters.

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

But on the website http://lah.ru I read an interesting story, illustrated with photographs and documents, of how archaeologists bury giant human bones they had just excavated. Obviously, in archeology there is an “unformatted” one, and one of the high-ranking “colleagues” can always say “get out of the profession.” There is a crisis of the genre, however. Everyone wants to eat.

Fifteen or twenty years ago I had the opportunity to read an article, the epigraph of which I remembered something like this - “. .and people will marvel at the huge bones of our ancestors“- it, among other things, mentioned a 20-meter human skeleton kept in the Vatican. It was brought from America by the Spaniards, who believed that they had found the remains of Adam. There were also photographs. I started searching on the Internet - I didn’t find anything worthy of a link - there is a mention, yes, but always with an addition, like “allegedly”. But hardly anyone would doubt that there are many skeletons in the Vatican's closets.

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 turned into “closed literature”, ex-files. But the artifacts have not yet become the property of historians and scientists - perhaps there are some good reasons. Access to the Vatican vaults is closed to uninitiated lay people.

Although historians are now so crazy that they write not about what once happened, but fantasy stories, and they write what they pay for. There is a lot of indirect information that some archaeological research centers began to hide the information they obtained about ancient peoples and finds. The bone-skulls, of course, are not the most important thing - more interesting are the artifacts obtained along the way and the knowledge that those who became the bones possessed. In general, as they write, “if something is known to such groups of researchers as the Chicago Society, then there is nothing there for the world community to catch.”

It should be noted that not only the bones of the “true man” are destroyed and buried, but even 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 they discovered giant statue, with uncharacteristic local population facial features rooted in the ground. The photo ended up in the local press. And even some of the scientists came then.

But attempts to photograph the sculpture 50 years later ended in failure. All that awaited the researchers was a pile of debris. They explained that the revolutionaries destroyed it. Why did the revolutionaries need this? 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” - the revolutionaries came, cutting down the vines, and blew it up. Oh, these revolutionaries. I immediately remember the looters 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 they knocked off the nose and severely mutilated the face. How they took revenge for something.

Or suddenly, these revolutionary Taliban, for no apparent reason, destroyed the peacefully dozing 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. This won't mean anything to anyone. Just think - they say, our ancestors had plenty of imagination, there was no TV, and there was nothing to do - so they practiced stone carving as best they could.

By the way, the further into antiquity, the more surprising the “gigantomania” of our ancestors is. Who needed it? What kind of pleasure is it to work granite almost with flint axes? And is this even possible? The precision of processing of the 800-ton Baalbek blocks is such that there are no gaps between them, and the surfaces are perfectly smooth. Historians who are “without a tower” claim that they were sawed 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 stones - feel them. To believe that the stones themselves came and lay 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, he doesn’t know

There, 20 km from the Baalbek veranda, in a quarry lies a granite block 25 m long and weighing 1000 tons. For comparison, a standard freight car carries 60 tons of cargo. Note that the ruins of a Roman temple built on this ancient foundation, composed of relatively modest stones. It’s the same in Egypt - what ancient 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. We can only state that the antediluvian construction technologies of the period called “prehistoric” are sharply different and much more advanced than later ones. Degradation is clearly visible in the example of Egypt. Transportation and processing of multi-ton slabs, from which the miraculously preserved structures are made, was a common occurrence in ancient times. A number of Cyclopean structures tell us that they may have been a match for their builders. As they write, in Karnak, in one of the many halls of the palace, which is now ruins, and had one hundred and forty columns, the Cathedral could easily fit Notre Dame of Paris without reaching the ceiling.

All nations had legends about giants that came down to us in one form or another. Giants and titans, of course, with their growth should have had a corresponding life expectancy.
Among the Greeks, the titans who inhabited the Earth were forced to fight with the gods.
The giants Svyatogor, Usynya, Dobrynya, Gorynya among our ancestors. In Russian epics, unlike some other peoples, relations with giants developed peacefully and even friendly.
The Ossetian epic "Tales of the Narts" tells about the struggle of the Narts with the giants. They were called uaigi.
In the mythology of the American peoples, giants were the predecessors 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 in ancient Cambodia, and in China.
Clay tablets claim that the priests of Babylon received their knowledge from giant people who escaped the Holocaust. This means "flood", of course...
ABOUT Egyptian giants Few people don’t know that their statues can still be seen today. Well, the gods - Seth and his sons, for example. Question. Have you ever wondered how, using, at best, copper tools, you can turn a 200-ton block of granite into a highly polished sculpture?

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

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

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

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

« Were on earth at that time giants, especially from the time when the sons of God began to come in to the daughters of men, and they began to bear them: These are strong people who have been famous since ancient times.” Gen. 6:4.

C illustrious, glorious people from ancient times. Much like the Sumerians -Nam-Lu-U acted as guardians of the Earth before the arrival of the Anunnu.- Nam-lu-u is the combined supply 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 - to fly, levitate, telepathic abilities, and a third eye. And they were giants. The description is a little broader than in the Bible. Nam-Lu-U was called “immeasurable” beings. And about Adam, some sources write that his body extended from earth to heaven, i.e. was also “immeasurable.” And only with the Fall and expulsion from Ryan the Earth became smaller. Of course, the above should not be taken literally. But the Bible also contains quite certain numbers.

“Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own 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 closest descendants was just as long, but after mixing with the sons of God, it became shorter and shorter. People began to “degenerate.” (We will return to the issue of the sons of God later, in the next, 12th part). A certain part of the then-giant people in the Jewish tradition was called “Gibborim” (strong), and another “Rephaim” - the well-known Goliath was one of them.

In 1718, the French academic Henrion constructed a mathematical table based on studies of ancient measures and data from the Bible, thus tracing the evolution of human height. According to his calculations, Adam was about 40 m tall. Degeneration became evident already in the time of Noah, who was 33.37 m tall. The further, 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 true or not, whether this is the reason, 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 oxygen content in the atmosphere, ensuring a healthy metabolism, a low carbon dioxide content - the planet until a certain point, before the first Catastrophe, was covered with lush, multi-tiered and gigantic vegetation. Well, the pressure should be higher. That's how it was - froze The pressure in air bubbles in amber showed 8 atmospheres, and the oxygen content was 38%. That's why the birds were gigantic - they had something to rest their wings on. Subsequently, the birds became sparrows, and the larger ones became 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.

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

But let's go back to the Bible:

[Wisdom 14:6] For in the beginning, when the proud giants were destroyed, the hope of the world, guided by Your hand, resorted to the ship, and left the seed of the race for the world.
[Bar 3] 26 There were glorious giants there from the beginning, very great, skilled in war.
27 But God did not choose them, nor revealed to them the ways of wisdom;
28 And they perished because they had no wisdom; they perished because of their foolishness.
You once destroyed the workers of iniquity, among whom were giants who trusted in strength and boldness, and brought endless water upon them.

And after the flood:
33 And they spread a bad report about the land which they had spied among the children of Israel, saying, The land which we passed through to spy is a land that devoureth the inhabitants of it, and all the people which we saw in its midst were great men;
34 There we also saw giants, the sons of Anak, from the giant family; and we were like locusts in our sight before them, so were we in their sight. (Num. 13:33,34)

Now let’s return again to that photograph of the supposed “nephilim.” It is not correct to decline the word "nephilim" - "nephilim" is a plural form. The word "nephilim" means "fallen." Fallen to Earth. And the Sumerian “Anunnaki” means “those who fell from Heaven.” One and the same thing, given the obvious continuity. But the “fallen angels” looked completely different. There is a detailed description of both the Nephilim and the Elohim in the Apocrypha of Enoch.

Giant people - ancient inhabitants of the Earth

Historical chronicles of the 19th century often report the discovery of skeletons of abnormally tall people in different parts of the globe.

Giant skeletons

In 1883, several burial mounds were discovered in Utah containing the burials of very tall people - 195 centimeters, which is at least 30 centimeters higher than the average height of Aboriginal Indians. The latter did not make these burials and could not provide any information about them. In 1885, in Gasterville (Pennsylvania), a stone crypt was discovered in a large burial 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 of Germany discovered the fossilized skeletons of people ranging from 210 to 240 centimeters tall.

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 facial features and build of the mummies were sharply different from the ancient Egyptians. Similar mummies of a man and a woman with red hair were discovered in 1912 in Lovelock (Nevada) in a cave carved into the rock. The height of the mummified woman during life was two meters, and the man - about three meters.

Australian finds

In 1930, near Basarst in Australia, prospectors mining jasper often found fossilized imprints of huge human feet. Anthropologists called the race of giant people, whose remains were found in Australia, megantropus. The height of these people ranged from 210 to 365 centimeters. Megantropuses are similar to Gigantopithecus, the remains of which were discovered in China. Judging by the found fragments of jaws and many teeth, the height of the Chinese giants was 3 to 3.5 meters, and their weight was 400 kilograms. Near Basarst, in river sediments there were stone artifacts 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.

An anthropological expedition that specifically explored this area in 1985 for the presence of remains of Meganthropus, carried out excavations at a depth of up to three meters from the surface of the earth. Australian researchers found, among other things, a fossilized molar tooth 67 millimeters high and 42 millimeters 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 to be nine million years.

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 Blue Mountains local residents They found a huge stone sticking out above the surface of the stream, on which could be seen the imprint of part of a huge foot with five toes. The transverse size of the fingers was 17 centimeters. If the print had been preserved in its entirety, it would have been 60 centimeters long. It follows that the imprint was left by a man six meters tall

Near Malgoa, three huge footprints were found, 60 centimeters long and 17 centimeters wide. The giant's stride length was measured at 130 centimeters. The footprints were preserved in fossilized lava for millions of years, even before Homo sapiens appeared on the Australian continent (if the theory of evolution is correct). Huge footprints are also found in the limestone bed of the Upper Macleay River. The fingerprints of these footprints are 10 centimeters long and the width of the foot is 25 centimeters. Obviously, the Aborigines of Australia were not the first inhabitants of the continent. Interestingly, their folklore contains 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 kept in the library of Oxford University, there is an account of the discovery of a gigantic skeleton made in the Middle Ages in Cumberland. “The giant is buried four yards deep in the ground and is in full military garb. His sword and battle ax rest next to him. The skeleton is 4.5 yards (4 meters) long, and the "big man's" teeth measure 6.5 inches (17 centimeters)."

In 1877, near Ewreka, Nevada, prospectors were panning for gold in a deserted hilly area. One of the workers accidentally noticed something sticking out over the cliff ledge. People climbed the rock and were surprised to find human bones of the foot and lower leg along with the kneecap. The bone was immured in the rock, and the miners used picks to free it from the rock. Assessing the unusualness of the find, the workers brought it to Evreka. The stone in which the rest of the leg was embedded was quartzite, and the bones themselves turned black, which indicated their considerable age. The leg was broken above the knee and consisted of the knee joint and completely preserved bones of the lower leg and foot. Several doctors examined the bones and concluded 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 knee to 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 site in hopes of finding the remaining parts of the skeleton. But, unfortunately, nothing more was discovered.

In 1936, German paleontologist and anthropologist Larson Kohl found the skeletons of giant people on the shores of Lake Elizi in Central Africa. The 12 men buried in the mass grave had heights from 350 to 375 centimeters during their lifetime. It is curious that 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 those executed, a fossilized skull 55 centimeters high was found, that is, almost three times larger than that of a modern adult. The giant to whom the skull belonged had very proportional features and a height of at least 3.5 meters

Giant Skulls

Ivan T. Sanderson, a famous zoologist and frequent guest on the popular American show “Tonight” in the 60s, once shared with the public an interesting 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 workers discovered two huge fossilized skulls, vertebrae and leg bones in one of the burial mounds. The height of the skulls reached 58 cm and the width 30 centimeters. The 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 infants in order to force their heads to acquire an elongated shape as they grew, existed among some Indian tribes North America. The vertebrae, as well as the skulls, were three times larger in size than those of modern humans. The length of the shin 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 brow ridges were two strange protrusions that resembled small horns. Anthropologists who came into possession of the find determined the age of the skull - about nine million years.

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

Giant skeletons

Historical chronicles of the 19th century often report the discovery of skeletons of abnormally tall people in different parts of the globe.

In 1821, in the US state of 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 of “incredible thickness and size” were found, according to a newspaper article.
In 1883, several burial mounds were discovered in Utah containing the burials of very tall people - 195 centimeters, which is at least 30 centimeters higher than the average height of Aboriginal Indians.

Archaeologists and anthropologists.

Archaeological finds different years, found all over the world, confirm the fact that giant people lived on Earth in ancient times.

There is evidence of finds of the remains of giants in almost every part of the world: Mexico, Peru, Tunisia, Pennsylvania, Texas, the Philippines, Syria, Morocco, Australia, Spain, Georgia, Southeast Asia, and the islands of Oceania.

In 2008, near the city of Borjomi, in the Kharagauli Nature Reserve, Georgian archaeologists found the skeleton of a three-meter giant. The skull found is 3 times larger than the skull of an ordinary person.

The remains of giant people were found in Australia, where anthropologists found a fossilized molar 67 millimeters high and 42 millimeters wide. The owner of the tooth was supposed to be about 7.5 meters tall and weigh 370 kilograms. Hydrocarbon analysis determined the age of the find - 9 million years.

In China, fragments of the jaws of people whose height ranged from 3 to 3.5 meters and weighed 300 kilograms were found.

In South Africa, at a diamond mine, a fragment of a huge skull 45 centimeters high was discovered. Anthropologists determined the age of the skull to be about 9 million years.

Stone Age burials have been discovered in the Gobero region of the Sahara. The age of the remains is about 5000 years. In 2005 - 2006, about 200 burials of two cultures were found in the region - Cythian and Tenerian. The Kithians lived in this territory 8 - 10 thousand years ago. They were tall, exceeding 2 meters.

Many giant fossilized bones were discovered in one of the mountain valleys of Turkey. The fossilized human leg bone is 120 centimeters long, judging by this size, the person's height was about 5 meters.

On the shores of Lake Titicaca in the Andes, at an altitude of 4 thousand meters, rises the city of giants - preserved ruins , the oldest city known to the modern world. Archaeologists have discovered that in this area of the Andes, at an altitude of 4 thousand meters, there are marine sediments stretching for 700 kilometers, which indicates the original location of the port of Tiahuanaco on the shores of the sea gulf. In Tiahuanaco, a mysterious monument has been preserved - the “Gate of the Sun”, covered with hieroglyphs that indicate the astronomical cycles of the planet Venus.

Helena Blavatsky

Theosophist, writer and traveler formed a classification of existing earthly civilizations - Indigenous Human Races:

I race - angelic people,

Race II - ghost-like people,

III race - Lemurians,

IV race - Atlanteans,

V race - Aryans (WE).

In her book The Secret Doctrine, Helena Blavatsky writes that the inhabitants of Lemuria were the “root race” of humanity. The philosopher Rudolf Steiner argued that in the inhabitants of Lemuria are called “the ancestors of people.”

In the Chinese province of Henan, Lushan is home to the most tall statue in the world - a statue of Buddha Vairocana.
The statue rises 153 meters, and the Buddha figure is 128 meters tall. The construction of the statue coincided with the destruction of the Buddha statues in Bamiyan in 2001.

Nicholas Roerich

Scientist, artist, mystic philosopher wrote about the Bamiyan statues: “These five figures belong to the creation of the hands of the Initiates of the Fourth Race, who, after the drowning of their continent, took refuge in the strongholds and on the peaks of the Central Asian mountain range. These figures illustrate the Doctrine of the gradual evolution of Races. The largest depicts the First Race, its etheric body was imprinted in solid, indestructible stone. The second - 36 meters high - depicts the “Later-Born”. The third - at 18 meters - perpetuates the Race that fell and conceived the first physical Race, born of a father and mother, the last offspring of which are depicted in statues on Easter Island. These were only 6 and 7.5 meters tall in the era when Lemuria was flooded. The Fourth Race was even smaller in size, although gigantic in comparison with our Fifth Race, and the series ends with the last.”

Many legends of the world tell about giants, giants, titans, in all ancient written sources: the Bible, Avesta, Vedas, Edda, Chinese and Tibetan chronicles, they talk about giant people.

Why did giant people disappear on Earth? What are the reasons for the death of Atlantis? They wrote about this: Tibetan Lama Lobsang Rampa in the Akashic Chronicles, theosophist in The Secret Doctrine, seer , philosopher and esotericist Helena Roerich, philosopher-mystic Nicholas Roerich, professor and many other scientists, philosophers, esotericists.

Helena Roerich

In the book “Agni Yoga” she wrote: “Unfortunately, the present time corresponds to the last time of Atlantis. The same false prophets, the same wars, the same betrayals and spiritual savagery. Now we are proud of the crumbs of civilization, and the Atlanteans also knew how to rush over planet Earth in order to quickly deceive each other. Temples were also desecrated, and science became a subject of speculation and contention. The same thing happened in construction; they did not dare to build firmly. They also rebelled against the Divine Hierarchy (Cosmic Teachers of humanity) and were suffocated by their own egoism. Also violated balance of the Earth’s underground forces and through mutual efforts created a catastrophe.”

Aren't current events reminiscent of those distant times?

The development of science and technology occurs much faster than the spiritual development of society and the caring attitude of people towards nature and each other.

The Great Initiated Teachers say that the energy emitted by humanity is needed for the correct movement of the Planet. When this energy becomes poisoned, it weakens Earth and thus disturbs the balance of many luminaries. The waves of vibrations change, and the Planet loses some of its self-defense. This is how humanity controls its own destiny, but every person is responsible for what happens on the Planet.

In the history of any nation there are always more questions than answers. So the question of the existence of giants never on Earth is attributed to the realm of fantasy and mythology. However, we can also recall the legends about dragons and giant serpents, which were also classified as fantasy, myths, but only relatively recently it was confirmed that they existed and were dinosaurs that inhabited our planet long before humanity.

The image of dragons is inherent in almost every nation and appears in the mythology of all nationalities. The same thing applies to the image of giants and giants. Maybe this is also a legend for now, until we find one hundred percent evidence of their existence?

Stories about the existence of giant people are not only in the Bible, where the myth of David and Goliath is mentioned, and myths that in the antediluvian time the earth was inhabited by huge people. Such myths are found all over the world: from South America to Australia. Every nation has, to one degree or another, information about giants. And only relatively recently, products and objects began to be discovered all over the world that were thousands of years old and that ordinary people could not use.

So in South America In the area of the Okavango River, during excavations of an ancient settlement, huge axes and axes were discovered. Archaeologists took one of them to America, where they exhibited it at the US Historical Society. The exhibit is more than a meter long, more than half a meter wide, and its weight is 150 kg. More than 49 million years old.

In South Africa in 1912, the footprint of a huge man was discovered. It was 1.3 meters long and even the dirt that could have remained between the toes of that person was visible on the print of the left foot. The imprint, but of the right foot, was discovered by the Arab navigator Ibn Battuta in the 14th century on the island of Ceylon. According to the rumors that prevailed at that time, this island was the cradle of humanity and it was there that Adam was born.

There is a mountain on the island that has been referred to as “Adam’s Peak” for quite some time. It was this place that the traveler wanted to visit to find the remains of the forefather of mankind. He didn't find any remains, but he did find the footprint of a giant man. 1.5 meters long and 80 cm wide. As scientists later found out, the height of such a person could be more than 10 meters. Corresponds to the description of the antediluvian people inhabiting the earth in the Bible.

In the 1930s in Basarsta, Australia, jasper miners often discovered huge imprints of human feet. The size of their owners should have been 210-365 cm. Anthropologists called the race of these people Meganthropus. This race is similar to the Gigantopithecus race found in China. Judging by the remains of teeth and legs, discovered in various provinces, the Asian giants were between 3 and 3.5 meters tall and weighed about 400 kg.

An anthropological examination, which was carried out in 1985 at the site where footprints were discovered in 1930, ended in a sensation. At a depth of more than 3 meters, a human tooth was discovered, 67 mm high and 42 mm wide. The owner had to be at least 7.5 meters tall and weigh at least 370kg. Hydrocarbon analysis showed the age of the find to be 9 million years.

In 1979, local farmers discovered a stone in the Blue Mountains with a small human footprint on it. Having completely restored the imprint, it turned out that the footprint was more than 10 million years old, and it belonged to a 6-meter giant. And at the beginning of the 20th century, in the Gobi Desert in southern Mongolia, fossilized bones of a humanoid creature were discovered, whose age is more than 45 million years. Its main feature was arms 15 meters long and legs 7 meters long. In 1936, on the shores of Lake Elizi, in Central Africa, during archaeological work, a mass grave was discovered in which they found the skeletons of people whose height during life was approximately 3.5 meters.

In Alaska in 1950, while building a road, a local bulldozer discovered two fossilized skulls, vertebrae and foot bones. The height of the skulls reached 58 cm and the width 30 centimeters. The ancient giants had a double row of teeth and disproportionately flat heads. The vertebrae, as well as the skulls, were three times larger than those of modern humans. The length of the shin bones ranged from 150 to 180 centimeters. And during the Second World War, when the Germans were digging a huge grave for executed prisoners, a skull 55 cm high was discovered, which is three times larger than the skull of modern people. The giant to whom the skull belonged had proportionate facial features and a height of more than 3.5 meters.

Remains of giants are found all over the world. Secrets of giants and ancient history land Is it fiction, or is there really truth in it?

Giants in ancient Karelia

A living folk tradition throughout Finland and some corners of Karelia attributes the ownership, in some places, of the grave stone piles and mounds still preserved, to the non-Finnish people who inhabited ancient times all over Finland northern part Scandinavia and even Karelia in the current territories of the Kem and Olonets provinces. The Finnish name for this ancient people is Hiisi. A people who, according to ancient Finnish legends, were famous for their height.

An excerpt from one saga about the discovery of Norway begins like this: “Forniot was called a king: he ruled over Jotland, as Finland was then called, and Kvenlandt. This king was Nora’s great-grandfather, but we don’t know any other details about him.” These lines were written about times when neither Norway nor Finland were inhabited by historical peoples. All the more interesting for us is the name Forniot itself, which means “giant of former times.”

As the northern territories were populated, the giants moved further and further north. Thus, the Danish historian Saxo Grammaticus (1140-1206) mentions that “the giants have now retired to those deserts that lie on the other side of Gandvik, north of Norway.” By the way, many nationalities (Finns, Swedes, Sami, Karelians) have preserved the memory of the resettlement of “giant people” in ancient times.

The Arab historian Ibn Fadlan, at the beginning of the 10th century, having learned that “there is some kind of extraordinary giant in the Volga Bulgar,” made a request to the Bulgar king himself. The king replied that there really was such a giant in his country, but he died; and he was not one of his people and “not a real person.” “And he was twelve cubits tall (about six meters), his head was the size of a large cauldron, a huge nose, eyes and fingers were enormous. He was from the peoples of the world. I saw his bones - they are of immense size,” notes Ibn Fadlan.

The Danes have a hero, Olaf, who lived in the area where the Hiisi lived. There are legends in which he could lift a boat with one hand, helped drag stones that even a group of people could not lift, and lived in a taiga in which more than one a common person wouldn't have survived.

The book of the outstanding Russian ethnographer and archaeologist Theodor Schwindt “Folk legends of the northwestern Ladoga region, collected in the summer of 1879,” which has long become a bibliographic rarity, provides unique information about the “giants ancient land Korelskaya".

“Legends about the Metelilainen,” T. Schwindt further points out, “have been preserved almost everywhere, but there are especially many of them in the Kurkijoki volost (now the village of Kurkijoki, Lakhdenpokhsky district). Probably because in some places there is a lot of real evidence of the activity of giant people: these are fields cleared of forest, and from time to time huge human bones found in the ground, and plows thrown by snowstorms, as well as huge ramparts in the mountains and islands.” .

So are the ancient giants a myth or reality? The answer to this question is impossible at this stage. The only thing that remains is to wait for new research on this topic, which will be able to reveal light on the past of our species.

IN modern world There are many people with enormous growth who are also considered giants.

Giants were first mentioned in the Bible.

It happened in the Old Testament - there were giants on the earth, and in their eyes the common people were like locusts to us. The Bible calls giants strong, glorious people of old, and compares them to the sons of God.

The legendary Philistine giant Goliath is known as a mythical hero who was three meters tall and had enormous physical strength. According to ancient legends, he fought his enemies by throwing huge boulders at them, which reached the size of a head of cabbage. However, according to legend, despite his superhuman strength, Goliath was defeated by the brave shepherd David, who was quite standard in size and not distinguished by gigantic physical strength.

The victory of the brave David over the mighty giant today is an example for many young men whose physical nature is far from heroic standards. Subsequently, David, the winner of Goliath, became king and ruled in the Kingdom of Israel from 1005 BC. to 965 BC

Giant people were also mentioned in ancient Greek sources. One of these were the Titans - the children of the Earth goddess Gaia, who were monstrous giants. It was mentioned that they were born from drops of the blood of Uranus, the ancient Greek God of Heaven. According to legend, huge titans fought against the Olympian gods, but were overthrown into Tartarus, deep within the earth, after Hercules defeated them.

Another representative of the giants was the patron god of Babylon. According to ancient legend, he had immeasurable strength and was so tall that he overshadowed all other gods. The Babylonian creation epic calls him "marduk" ("son of clear skies") the supreme deity of Babylonia.

Giants in the Middle Ages

The Middle Ages are also characterized by the presence of giants of their time. According to the legends of that time, the Slavic hero Svyatogor, being a comrade in arms of Mikula Selyaninovich and Ilya Muromets, had superhuman strength and was very tall. According to ancient Slavic writings, Svyatogor was taller than trees and so heavy that the Earth could not bear his weight and collapsed under his feet.

One Russian writer, studying and creating writing for the peoples of the North, outlined the legend of this people in his work “Chukchi”. According to this legend, a tribe of incredibly tall people lived in the snow-covered tundra. This was about two thousand years ago, however, and in our modern times, northern hunters on their way meet incredibly tall, muscular men.

The Hutsul people once sang a song about giants. Residents of Ukrainian villages and villages still know and sing it in their circles. In this song they described ancient people of enormous stature living in the mountain valley of the Carpathians. They were called giants, walking a mile and reaching the sky. Later, this Hutsul folk song was used by director Sergei Parajanov in his outstanding creation “Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors.”

Giants of Ancient Rome

Posio and Scundila

The famous “Gardens of Salustius” in Rome, which belonged to a historian who lived in the 1st century BC, were guarded by the giants Posio and Scundila. They were widely known throughout the city due to their enormous height, reaching three meters. In addition, the giants had a formidable character, which scared petty thieves and hooligans away from the luxurious Salustiya estate.

Another giant, whose height almost reached 3.5 meters, was one of the hostages sent to Rome by the Persian king. According to the writings of Josephus, an ancient Jewish historian, the giant did not possess any supernatural power, but was known for his gluttony, and in “eating competitions” he was always ahead of his rivals.

Giants in the eyes of travelers

Great travelers also managed to see giants. The Spaniard Ferdinand Magellan, a famous navigator, wintered in Argentina in 1520. On his expedition in modern Patagonia, he met a giant whose height exceeded two meters, and Magellan himself was waist-deep. Later, two more natives were captured by Magellan's people, who were intended to be delivered as a gift to King Charles I. But the natives died on the way across the ocean, unable to withstand the difficult transition, and were thrown overboard. According to some sources, Patagonia takes its name from the word patagón, which Magellan used to call the giants he met.

Another English navigator Francis Drake in 1578, making trip around the world, met on the shores of Patagonia people more than 2.8 meters tall, which he wrote down in his logbook.

Giants of the past century

Robert Pershing Wadlow

Giants also met in the last century. Among us lived a number of people of enormous stature. One of these people, Robert Pershing Wadlow, is called “the tallest man in history.” Robert Wadlow lived from 1918 to 1940 in Alton, Illinois. Throughout his short life he continued to grow, and at the time of Robert Wadlow’s death his height was 2 m 72 centimeters, his foot was 49 cm, and he weighed 199 kg.

But this is not an isolated case when the growth of a modern person reached non-standard sizes. In total, in the history of medicine of the last century, 17 giant people were recorded, taller than 2.44 m. John William Rogan, whose height was 2 m 64 cm, was the second in the number of tall people in history after Robert Pershing Wadlow. John F. Carroll was 2 m 63 cm tall, another giant, Finn Välno Myllyrinne, was 2 m 51 cm tall, and Bernard Coyen was 2 m 48 cm tall. Another person with a non-standard height of 2 m 49 cm was Don Kohler.

Giant woman

Among the representatives of female giants, the tallest woman in the world was recognized and still remains a Chinese woman from Hunan province - Zeng Jinlian, who lived in 1964-1982. Her height began to develop actively at the age of 4 months and by the age of four it reached 156 cm, and by the time of her death at the age of 18 her height was 2 m 48 cm.

Giants Hugo

Hugo's twin brothers were known to residents late XIX century. Baptiste and Antoine Hugo, twin brothers called "giants of the Alps" performed in Europe and America.

The eldest of the brothers, Baptist Hugo, was photographed with residents North Africa, and called himself “the tallest man on all the Earth.” The height of Antoine, the youngest of the brothers, was 225 cm.

The Russian hero Fyodor Makhnov, a popular giant of the last century, became famous due to his impressive height of 2 m 68 cm. As St. Petersburg newspapers described him in 1906, he was “a Russian giant of a height never before seen in any part of the globe.” .

Fyodor Makhnov was born in the northeast of Belarus, near the village of Kostyuki in 1878. From the age of fourteen, Fedor traveled around the world with his performances and aroused surprised glances from the public and universal admiration.

At the age of sixteen, according to the contract, Makhnov’s height was “3 arshins 9 inches,” which in today’s terms is 253 centimeters. According to the Warsaw anthropologist Lushan, the height of Fyodor Makhnov continued to increase and reached a maximum of 285 cm. As Lushan noted in 1903 in the journal “Nature and People”, in order to at least slightly introduce this extraordinary person in society, the boots of the giant Fyodor to a person of standard height was chest-deep, and a boy of about 12 could fit in his full-length boot.

Makhnov was distinguished not only by his enormous height, but also by his superhuman physical strength. At his performances, he raised the orchestra platform, bent horseshoes and twisted spirals from iron rods. Being so famous, Fedor, of course, aroused interest among the common people in his personal life. Newspapers of that time published information that Fyodor Makhnov had a wife and five children. However, the father’s enormous height did not affect his offspring in any way, and all of Fedor’s children were of normal height.

Over time, Fyodor Makhnov got tired of being fun for the public, he quit his performances and moved to live in his native land, where he built a new farm with the proceeds from his performances. According to official data, Fyodor Makhnov died at the age of 34 from pneumonia. However, some suggested that the “Russian Gulliver” was poisoned by competitors - circus strongmen and giants.

Makhnov’s grave is still preserved in the cemetery of the village of Kostyuki. It says “The Tallest Man in the World.” He was 3 arshins 9 inches tall.” However, Fedor’s grave is a place without burial, and the remains of the giant are no longer there. The skeleton of the Russian hero was exhumed in 1939 and was sent for study to the Medical Institute in Minsk. However, the skeleton remained lost after the destruction of the war, and has not been found to this day.

Sultan Kösen

According to Guinness World Records, the man currently living and the tallest is Turkish farmer Sultan Kösen. This man was born in December 1982 and now lives in Turkey. He is currently 2.51 m tall

Leonid Stadnik

Another contemporary giant who was voluntarily removed from the Guinness Book of Records is Leonid Stadnik. It no longer appears in the book of records because... refused the next control weighing. Currently, Leonid lives in the Zhytomyr region of Ukraine, in the village of Podolyantsy. Today, Leonid’s height is 2 m 53 cm, and he weighs 200 kg, and this, apparently, is not the limit, because he continues to grow.

Alexander Sizonenko

Alexander Sizonenko (1959 - 2012), another tall man of our time. He was born in Kherson region Ukraine, village of Zaporozhye. Alexander was a famous basketball player who was the tallest in the history of the sport. Sizonenko was brought up in a sports boarding school in St. Petersburg, and played for the Leningrad team “Spartak” and the Kuibyshev “Stroitel”. The height of the tallest basketball player was 243 cm. Unfortunately, in January 2012 in the city of St. Petersburg, Alexander died.
