“Modern experts firmly reject the idea that there have ever been entire races of giants, and are adamant that our distant ancestors were primitive apelike creatures much smaller than ourselves. Worldwide legends and traditions, on the other hand, assert that there were races of giants in days of old. Theosophy agrees, and says that just as many modern animal and plant species had giant ancestors, so did modern humans.1 Over the past few hundred years, humans have grown slightly taller, but the long-term trend, measured over millions of years, is towards a reduction in stature, with relative dwarves and giants probably existing in every age.
A surprising number of giant human skeletons have in fact been discovered, some of them reaching heights of 4.6 m (15 ft) or more. In many cases, the present whereabouts of the remains is unknown, and many details about the skeletons and the circumstances of their discovery are lacking, including indications as to their possible age. But to dismiss every such find out of hand as a delusion or hoax would seem to owe more to rank prejudice than to healthy scepticism.”
Evidently, we live in the era of “giant suckers”
There are those who would bury confirming evidence because it does not fit in with accepted theory.
Formal reconsideration of the theories upon which entire prestigious careers have been based might be an unacceptable proposition for some in academia.
I've yet to see one of these "giants," and I've studied a thousand or more archaeological skeletons in my career as an archaeologist in the western US.
I have yet to see any reports from my colleagues of such a find either.
Where's all the evidence?
