Previously Lived Giants?

  Giants are usually perceived as the characters of fairy tales for children. Science has not left the modern adult educated person to believe in the possibility of the reality of the giants. But is it fair?

Footprint of Adam?

In Sri Lanka, the island of Ceylon, is cone-shaped mountain 2240 meters high, which adherents worship the four world religions. The reason for this honor - the imprint of a human foot in the rock at the top. According to legend, the mountain is located close to paradise. Adam on the mountain - the so-called peak - during the dry season every year thousands of pilgrims climb: Buddhists, Hindus, Christians and Muslims. Since climbing under the scorching sun - too severe test, the pilgrimage takes place at night. Provides the shortest path to overcome the steep steps of 5000.
     A very unusual size of a human foot print on the top: length - 160 inches, width - 75. They say that when Adam was expelled from paradise down to earth, he stepped foot on the mountain top. The famous traveller Marco Polo's supposed that just here lies the grave, and Adam. Hindus believe that the fingerprint belongs to the god Shiva, who once stayed in these places. They called the mountain of Shiva Nadi Padan. Buddhists believe that this summit was visited by Buddha. According to some Catholics, this trail during his missionary work in South Asia has left the Apostle Thomas. But let us be fair: the Buddha Sakyamuni and the Apostle Thomas were great people and left a huge mark in the history of mankind, but they were not giants, and could hardly leave such a large footprint in stone.

Who Hunted the Dinosaurs?

     These tracks are available in other parts of the world. Thus, in the early XX century in the South African farmer, Stoffel Koetz found a giant footprint left leg. He was typing in one of the rocks to a depth of 12 centimetres and had a length of 1.28 meters. The age of this print hundreds of millions of years.
Many times, archaeologists have found and great tools. In Ohio, the United States, was found a copper ax weighing 30 kilograms.

     In 1960 during excavations in Siberia, archeologists from the Soviet Union became the owners of not less intriguing finds: dinosaur bones sticking out of them with the tip of a huge boom. One of the web site says paleontologist and science fiction writer Ivan Efremov in the Gobi Desert near the skeletons of dinosaurs found the bones of a humanoid creature, and several high-tech metal objects. Interestingly, in some dinosaur bone he found bullet holes clearly. More recently in Sarawak, Malaysia, which has long been portrayed in the legends of giants in the forest were found huge pieces of wood from 2.5 to 9 meters in length. Maybe they were instruments of the people, the giants?

Giants of Nevada     Not only archaeologists, but random people found the skeletons of giants. In 1877 in a deserted hilly area near the town Evreki, Nevada, miners worked in the gold leaching. And one of the workers happened to notice ingrown into the rock and blackened by the time the bones of the human foot and lower leg. Miners with picks freed them from the rocks, and later taken to the Evreku. Paleontologists, in whose hands fell find, found that the length of the bone from knee to foot was ... 97 inches. The owner of such extremities had to have a growth of 3 meters 60 centimeters! Another great mystery - the age of quartzite, which found the bones - 185 million years.
     At the same at the Nevada Paiute Indian tribe there is a legend that on their land long ago lived red-haired giants. And they were very cruel. Many years ago, the warriors of the tribe Paiute drove the giants, and they have long lived in a cave Lovelock. This cave, located 35 kilometers from the eponymous town, known for the fact that it inhabits many bats. In 1911, guano miners dug in her mummified remains of the mysterious red-haired people rise of 2.5 meters or more. This confirmed the Indian legend about the people whom they called si-te-kah. Oddly enough, the scientists did not want to explore the remains, and eventually most of the bones of the workers were simply thrown away. Nevertheless, one found in the cave, massive skulls preserved in the museum Vinemuke Humboldt, Nevada. More miraculously preserved artifacts from a cave located in Lovelock, Nevada Historical Society Museum in Reno.

Mysteries of the Black Continent

   Similar findings were made and on other continents. In 1890 in Egypt, archaeologists discovered a stone sarcophagus inside a clay coffin, which rested two-meter red-haired mummy of a woman with a baby. Features and the addition of mummies differed sharply from the ancient Egyptians, but much like the Giants of Lovelock Cave.

    In 1936, German paleontologist and anthropologist Larson Kohl found the skeletons of gigantic men on the shore of Lake Eliza in Central Africa. 12 men were buried in a mass grave. Their height reached 375 centimetres. It is interesting that the deceased had a skull sloping chins and two sets of upper and lower teeth.

    In South Africa, the diamond developments in 1950, workers found a skull fragment of the vast height of 45 centimetres. Above the brow were two strange bulge-like small horns. Anthropologists, who fell into the hands of the mysterious discovery, determined its age: nearly nine million years!

    Already in 1999 on the western shore of Lake Turkana of Kenya were found the remains of a tall upright-walking creatures who lived four million years ago.
And a very recent scientific discovery, and sensationalism is in the Sahara desert necropolis with six-meter burial chambers.

You can Solve this Riddle!

     Fast forward to Asia. In the late 1950's, during road construction in the south-eastern Turkey, in the valley of the Euphrates River was opened several graves with human remains of gigantic proportions. The two were discovered thigh bones of about 120 centimeters long. Joe Taylor, director of the Museum of fossils of Texas, USA, which bought the bones, held by all the academic rules of the reconstruction image of the wearer. It turned out that he had to have a growth of about five meters and a length of nearly two feet of the foot. The hands of such a giant would be at 1.8 meters above the ground.     Earlier, in 1935, a Dutch archaeologist Ralph von Koenigswald found fossils in Hong Kong, human teeth, each of which was five times greater than that of modern humans. Approximate weight of their owner had to be at least 500 kg, height - five feet.

     Traces of human giants-preserved in Europe. At the end of the XIX century in Ireland, in County Astrom, was found the mummy of human growth 3.7 meters. It is remarkable that the giant had six fingers on each limb. This mummy is on display at exhibitions in Dublin, Liverpool and Manchester. Further traces of it disappeared. Only surviving photograph, published in December 1895 in a British magazine.

Four-meter human skeleton in the summer of 2000 was discovered by two amateur archaeologists in Georgia, near the village of Udabno.

     The remains of giants were found in Australia and allegedly even in Antarctica. It turns out that their tracks are almost all parts of the world. Therefore, we may say that if we consider such evidence alone, they will remain unsolved mysteries and miracles, but if you collect all the information together, you should study them and look for ways to research findings and generalizations.
