politics of Status Quo at the Smithsonian will hand the scolarly keys to the study of the Past to other nations. Perhaps that is why China and Russia are so active in the archaeology and anthropology fields.

What color is the sky on your planet?

Maybe they were hairy too - call them homo Bigfoot.

Welcome to Cloud Coo-Coo Land where baloney is dished out round the clock.

And where on earth did you get the idea that China and Russia "...are so active in the archaeology and anthropolgy fields" ?

[Cogadh na Sith]

Amazing! What about the giant they found near Piltdown?

I liked the porn video store selections better.

The porn store article was deleted. IT offended some people. Too bad. There was some great sanitary aspects about video handling, and the relationship issues of the proximity of a rental store to the surrounding neighborhood.

I thought the Giants moved to San Francisco a long time ago.

Brooklyn will never be the same, though.

"...And where on earth did you get the idea that China and Russia "...are so active in the archaeology and anthropolgy fields" ?..."

The Anthropologal and Archaeology Journals. The amount of studies and research in the Russian and Cinese journals are off the meter! Puts the US to shame. Of course, out west we are too egotistic and myopic to notice.

The porn store article was deleted.

I know.  Luckily, as soon as I read
the first paragraph I knew it was
doomed.  So I made sure to read
it all before leaving the thread.

Genesis Chapter 6
v4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.

Giants are abnormally tall and powerful beings, that actually inhabited the earth in biblical times. There are also mythical giants found in Roman, Greek, and other mythologies. In modern times, persons well above normal height and size, and who excell in brute strength, giants if you will, are often seen in side shows, and are considered freaks of nature.

From time to time, archelogical sites have revealed bones of extinct monsters which show every indication of human origin, as evidenced in one case by a 19-foot skeleton which was unearthed at Lucerne in 1577. In 1456 and again in 1613, human remains were discovered near the Rhone which measured 30-feet in length. Imagine a being 30-feet tall towering over a normal size human of today.

Of at least six references to giants, Goliath, is probably the best known, though the only mention made of him is his appearance as the champion of the Philistines, and his death at the hands of David (I Samuel 17), in circa 1010 B.C. Goliath standing someplace between 9-feet/9-inches and 11-feet/3inches over David looked down mockingly as David said, "This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand," whereupon David smote the giant in the forehead with a single stone from his sling shot. As Goliath lay dead on the ground, David cut off the giant's head.

Is Goliath, and his brother who was also a giant, a myth or Biblical fact? Skeletons recovered in Palestine attest the fact that men as tall as Goliath once lived in the historical reliability of the David-Goliath narrative, adducing contradictions in the account.

The biblical Nephilim giants were the sons of Anak. These giants were fallen ones or monsters of mixed human and angelic birth, not unlike the rebellious Titians of Green mythology. They were exceedingly wicked and displayed such a violent nature that all of their thoughts were evil. Accounts of the Nephilim giants can be found in Genesis 6:4-5 and Numbers 13:33.

Sounds like that Afro-centric crap...only it's Indians.

A websearch on Biblical Giants will yield some very interesting reading.

There was a very interesting show on either Discovery channel or The Learning Channel a few nights ago. They had found Europeans that had been mumified in China. They were 2,000 to 4,000 years old. They were tall, had red hair, and had woven clothing from Europe. Gee, I was never taught anything about this in the Publik Skools.
