Not all agree though; the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (2:524) proposes that Goliath may have been a remnant of one of the aboriginal groups of giants of Palestine who now were in the employ of the Philistines.
That's interesting.
Thank you for the links also.
Now if they ever find a giant human skeleton -- without a head, that would be something, eh?
