I've been to Fiji and lots of the men and some of the women were 6'2. Why are they calling this a giant?

I would not be too surprised at some Phoenicians roaming around the South Pacific.

I could visualize a bunch of Phoenicians, looking for new sea-trading prospects, traveling overland to Babylon, getting some ships built, and sailing east to India, then southeast past the Malasian Islands to Australia. A couple of thousand years later, there was a lively interest in trading for Chinese silk and spices from Ceylon, why not earlier?

"I've been to Fiji and lots of the men and some of the women were 6'2.

Isn't that a little tall for people who supposedly originated in the orient?

" Why are they calling this a giant?"

Lol. That's my question.

The FIJI house is across from my church. The term "trash can" is alien to their language.

They do seem to be consistent from college to college.

Milwaukee's Best seems to be the tribe's favorite food.

It's a real shame when "These cowboy archaeologists" are given free reign to tear valuable finds apart like a dog looking for bone.

After doing post-Doctoral work at Oxford University in the field of Biblical Archeology I was invited by one of the Profs to participate in his major dig in Israel. Regret to this day that business did not allow the time to go, if for no other reason than just to even briefly be part of a dig that was being done right.

I am sorry that I found this so late...I agree with you... if it hadn't been for "those cowboy archaeologists" the 3000 year old tall man might never have been found... I have had to deal with those so called learned experts and many of them are snots and they have taught me not to trust them.

6'2" was pretty tall 3,000 years ago.

Last night Steve Quayle was saying they came from outer space, married the daughters of earth, and live in the Solomon Islands.
