I don't remember the Arizona "pig man", but I do know about Piltdown man. A great number of biologists treated it with a great deal of skepticism, because of the way that it was presented. It was through the scientific method that it was debunked. It was not debunked by "Creation scientists".

Remember the Arizona "pig man"

Wasn't that on Seinfeld?

"I wish there were pig-men. You get a few of those pig-men walking around, suddenly I'm looking a lot better. That way if someone wanted to fix me up they could say, 'Hey, at least he's no pig-man.'" - George, in "The Bris"

Piltdown was rejected by 1912 as appearing to be made out of parts of different specimens, using evolutionary theory.
