The World for People who Think
Kristan HarrisSun, 20 Jan
& SouthMilwaukeeNowHere's one for your "Forbidden Archaeology" file.Scientists are remaining stubbornly silent about a lost race of giants found in burial mounds near Lake Delavan, Wisconsin, in May 1912. The
was overseen by Beloit
and it included more than 200 effigy mounds that proved to be classic examples of 8th century Woodland Culture. But the
found in May 1912 did not fit very neatly into anyone's concept of a textbook standard. They were enormous. These were not average human beings.
Strange Skulls
First reported in the 4 May 1912 issue of
Their heights ranged between 7.6ft and 10 feet and their skulls "presumably those of men, are much larger than the heads of any race which inhabit America to-day." They tend to have a double row of teeth, 6 fingers, 6 toes and like humans came in differant races. The
in the front of the jaw are regular molars. Heads usually found are elongated believed due to longer than normal life span.
" One must wonder how much can they lift if twice the size of a average human today? Are these the Giants the Bible & many other civilizations have in their history and painted on their walls. The Bible in Genisis 6:4 " There were giants in the and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old men of renown. " Now this is faulty logic to any scientist out there because I am using religous/cultural history to fill a hole in science.
Over 200 Giant digs have been found in recent years. Giant skeleton finds have not made the local/national news since the 1950's for the most part. It seems in most peoples opinion do to the fear that people would question evolution . If anything a de-evolution.
. One eye socket. Giants in history are typically cannibalistic in nature. The reason why I am bringing up giants will all tie into politics, and word happenings. Look at a basketball hoop and add 5 feet. That tall. Greek Mythology talks about war with cyclops learning they had to bring down by taking out their legs rendering them slow and helpless. American Giants (Red Hair Giants) where found with egyptian writing on their tombs have been found in multiple locations.
& SouthMilwaukeeNowMystery of The Wisconsin Giants
Was this some sort of prank, a hoax played by local farm boys or a demented taxidermist for fun and the attention of the press? The answer is no.
The Lake Delavan find of May 1912 was only one of
that were reported in
from 1851 forward to the present day. It was not even the first set of giant skeletons found in Wisconsin.
On 10 August 1891, the New York Times reported that scientists from the Smithsonian
had discovered several large "pyramidal monuments" on Lake Mills, near Madison, Wisconsin. "Madison was in ancient days the centre of a teeming population numbering not less than 200,000," the Times said. The excavators found an elaborate system of defensive works which they named .
"The celebrated mounds of Ohio and Indiana can bear no comparison, either in size, design or the skill displayed in their construction with these gigantic and mysterious monuments of earth -- erected we know not by whom, and for what purpose we can only conjecture," said the Times.
On 20 December 1897, the Times followed up with a report on . One had recently been opened.
"In it was found the skeleton of a man of gigantic size. The bones measured from head to foot over nine feet and were in a fair state of preservation. The skull was as large as a half bushel measure. Some finely tempered rods of copper and other relics were lying near the bones."
Giant skulls and skeletons of a race of "Goliaths" have been found on a very regular basis throughout the Midwestern states for more than 100 years. Giants have been found in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky and New York, and their burial sites are similar to the well-known mounds of .
The spectrum of Mound builder history spans a period of more than 5,000 years (from 3400 BCE to the 16th CE), a period greater than the history of Ancient Egypt and all of its dynasties.
There is a "prevailing scholarly consensus" that we have an adequate historical understanding of the peoples who lived in North America during this period. However, the long record of anomalous finds like those at Lake Delavan suggests otherwise.
The Great Smithsonian Cover-Up
Has there been a giant cover-up? Why aren't there public displays of gigantic Native American skeletons at natural history museums?
The skeletons of some Mound Builders are certainly on display. There is a wonderful exhibit, for example, at the where one may see the skeleton of a "" in the museum.
But the skeletons placed on display are normal-sized, and according to some sources, the skeletons of giants have been covered up.
Specifically, the Smithsonian Institution has been accused of making a deliberate effort to hide the "telling of the bones" and to keep the giant skeletons locked away.
In the words of Vine Deloria, a Native American author and professor of law:
"Modern day archaeology and anthropology have nearly sealed the door on our imaginations, broadly interpreting the North American past as devoid of anything unusual in the way of great cultures characterized by a people of unusual demeanor. The great interloper of ancient burial grounds, the nineteenth century Smithsonian Institution, created a one-way portal, through which uncounted bones have been spirited. This door and the contents of its vault are virtually sealed off to anyone, but government officials. Among these bones may lay answers not even sought by these officials concerning the deep past."
Two Giant Skeletons Near Potosi, WI
The January 13th, 1870 edition of the Wisconsin Decatur Republican reported that two giant, well-preserved skeletons of an unknown race were discovered near Potosi, WI by workers digging the foundation of a saw mill near the bank of the Mississippi river. One skeleton measured seven-and-a-half feet, the other eight feet. The skulls of each had prominent cheek bones and double rows of teeth. A large collection of arrowheads and "strange toys" were found buried with the remains.
& SouthMilwaukeeNowGiant Skeleton Discovered in Maple Creek, WI
On December 20th, 1897 the New York Times reported that three large burial mounds had been discovered near Maple Creek, WI. Upon excavation, a skeleton measuring over nine feet from head to toe was discovered with finely tempered copper rods and other relics.
Giant Skeleton in West Bend, WI
A giant skeleton was unearthed outside of West Bend near Lizard Mound County Park and assembled by local farmers to a height of eight feet. More about this can be found in
by local author and investigator .
While a normal-sized skeleton of a supposed mound builder (the "Princess of Aztalan") is on display at the site of several large pyramidal monuments near Madison called Aztalan State Park, the goliath remains of Wisconsin's giants have vanished along with the hundreds of others discovered throughout the midwest.
Many have accused the Smithsonian Institution of covering up these discoveries, locking the
away and depriving the public of their findings.

and good summary of some of the sources out there. The Smithsonian has been responsible for the disappearance of many finds in the ground that threaten mainstream concepts of our past.
The author cites a 2002 National Geographic article and implies that the giant cyclops skeletons found in ancient Greece were human-like in origin. They were of a species related to elephants. And they were not actual cyclops but rather there was a large hole in the skull. These really have nothing to do with giant humans. They only help to illustrate that ancient myths might have been supported by or created by fossils found by ancient peoples.
A few years ago an ancient foundry was discovered in the mountains of south eastern Oklahoma. This foundry was of a much larger size than would have been optimal for the average modern human. Before the site could be investigated, the US Army Corp of Engineers bulldozed it.
Or are the current species the result of radiation?
One might well think that the early copper mining on the UP (Gavin Mendez) is linked genetically to these.
Believers of Darwin's imagination usually cover up these findings as it does not match the popular theories that humans evolved from apes only recently and such findings as giant humans cannot be explained as per the evolution human timescales that the scientists have concocted as as recent as 40K years.
roughly speaking the weight of an entity increases with the cube of linear dimensions .
to support this weight you would expect the leg bones to be much thicker in proportion yet we do not see this in these illustrations .There would also need to be a much more powerful heart .
Perhaps gravity has changed or or fakes have been made.
Since they have hidden the finds so that none can see them, the illustrations are not much more than artistic license.
Now, they can and do re-write history, but you cannot re-write legend without destroying it's patina.
Why would anyone want to hide this stuff?
They want you to believe that 10,000 years ago we were all dragging our knuckles on the ground.
Legends say otherwise, and Megalithic building supports them.
Advanced civilizations that surpass our own levels of tech and sophistication got greedy and tried to play God with the Earth and mankind.
They were all destroyed, leaving only remnants with legends to pass on.
Legend has it that there were giants in ancient times and men of renown.
Multiple legends.
Since none survived to present, we don't know how or why they got to such a large size.
They are gone now, so perhaps it was a gene which was too easily compromised by Earth's environment, virus attack, dilution in man/giant offspring, etc.
Legends are our extended history.
They are priceless.
of the powers that be.
@Rabelais: I read about that ancient foundry and saw photos. I believe it's only been covered. It's still there for the next generation. Perhaps they'll be free of this mind-stifling, so-called 'archeology'.
This is the man who will be erected in stone sometime soon here in hancock... Fitting just saw it in the paper a week or so back []
Hi, do these discoveries articles, reports and documents have Peer-Reviewed reports, articles and/documents ?
Because there are many scholars claiming that it is all fake and that there is no Peer- Reviewed reports, journals , articles and dcuments supporting this as a strong fact evidence.
IMO, peer review reports don't mean squat. What difference does it make if a bunch of old know-it-all farts agree on something or not. Who's to say what they have been taught, brainwashed or believe is truth? When it comes down to brass tacks, it's all guesswork. They still think carbon dating is accurate...
This is racist drivel. Cretinism. You don't hear them talk about the pigmys in this way. But if they can't defend themselves, go ahead and call...

SupportSOTT.NETAre You A Genius? Read These Signs And Find Out
Have you ever wondered what
have in common? A number of experiments have been conducted to find that out and some peculiar behaviors have been observed among people with high IQ. How anyone turns out to be genius is due to their genetics. So genetics of geniuses definitely differ from “not so genius” ordinary people, but these brainy people do have similarities in their genetics that lead most of them to possess similar qualities. How would you recognize a genius if you come across one?
Well, science answers to that. Read the list below and you will know if you or someone you know, have got more brains than average, because geniuses commonly have more than one of the following signs.
1. They Don’t Lose Their Virginity To Just Anybody!
A study conducted among students of top universities has found out that the number of sexual partners per students were lower as compared to the average control group – a group with which the results of an experiment are compared. Same results have been found in both U.K. and the U.S. It is especially true for men. So you question how is having less sexual partners related to higher IQ?
One quality geniuses have is they do not follow the rules, they tend to deviate from the path designed by evolution. Men tend to be polygamous, so they can pass on their genes to maximum offspring, but that is an evolutionary norm.
Men who go against that are more intelligent.
Another reason that links monogamy and high intelligence in men is that the male hormone testosterone tends to inhibit intelligence and increases the libido, so when there is less testosterone, it will not only result in monogamy or even asexuality, but also a higher IQ.
By the way, do you know Newton never got married? And, neither did Nikola Tesla and Leonardo da Vinci. Darwin had an amazingly close relationship with his wife, Emma, which is thought of as more like a ‘son-mother’ than ‘wife-husband’ closeness!
2. High Sex Drive
A sex toy retailer in U.K , Lovehoney, after analyzing their sales data found that the students from top universities buy more of their products than students from other universities. Cambridge and Oxford came first with students spending $14,600 on sex toys, compared to students of Surrey and Loughborough, who spent less than $4900.
The conclusion of this study is somewhat contradictory to the first one, but it can also explain why monogamy is preferred over polygamy by more intelligent men, compared to their intellectual and professional life, they don’t want to spend more time, resources or energy having kids (Another divergence from evolutionary trend, our ancestors spent less time on unnecessary activities like learning, investigating and discovering and more time reproducing), they satisfy their libido using personal pleasure products.
When such individuals who refrain from sexual interactions even with a high libido enter a relationship with someone who meets their both emotional and physical requirements, tend to form a strong bond with that person, thus leading to a monogamous relationship.
Another correlation that shows relation between a high IQ and less sex is the difference in the number of offspring they have, both men and women with high IQ tend to have lesser number of kids than their less intelligent counterparts. It can also be seen in birth rates of different countries, poor countries with less health and education facilities (thus on average low IQ) have higher birth rate than the developed countries with on average higher IQ.
3. Sorry, We’re Not Social Type
More intelligent people don’t do well socially. Geniuses just don’t feel understood by people, so they withdraw themselves from society. Their interests and priorities are usually different from those of their peers, colleagues and even family members that makes them act distant.
Sometimes, you will see a person talking absolute non-sense with confidence, on the other hand, you might meet a person, who talks once in a month, but when talks s/he talks you will be surprised at what an amazing thing s/he said. That’s the difference between a genius and an average person, genius thinks before speaking and most people don’t, but what does that have to do with being socially poor?
Geniuses probably think too much, s/he will consider all the effects and consequences of a thing s/he wants to say, like what will this person think if I say this? Will this make sound stupid? This person might think I am trying to act too smart and on and on and on. Besides, social interaction might just be too boring for them, as compared to their own activities.
Some geniuses might even become arrogant, not interacting with people they think can’t reach their mental level and may even develop anti-social personality. Darwin probably suffered from social anxiety disorder and there were times when the famous physicist Galileo offended people.
4. Yay, This Is My Thing!
As geniuses like to experience new stuffs, they are more likely to plunge in an ocean of drugs and become addicts than less intelligent people. A study revealed that they are more likely to take illegal drugs like marijuana, ecstasy, amphetamines and heroin.
5. Sleep Is Too Boring
If you like to stay up all night because you cannot sleep without completing a Nicolas Spark’s novel, welcome to the genius club. Evolution has shaped us to work during the day and rest at night, but apparently it doesn’t matter to brainiac.
People with bipolar disorder that is associated with heightened creativity sleep less when in their manic phase. A research says that insomnia is associated with a higher IQ, the need to sleep per hour in night decreases as intelligent increases. Also, there is a possibility that for genius, their , for deep sleep is slightly unstable.
So having a tough time trying to sleeping? It is a sign of a genius. No wonder why Nikola Tesla never slept more than 2 hours a night!
6. Even the Eye Color Matters!
Blue eyed people on average excel better at self-pacing activities like academics and are better strategic thinkers, but that doesn’t mean people with other eye colors are always less intelligent. Brown eyed people on average tend to do better at quick response based activities like sports. But don’t worry brown-eyed people, as research states you are perceived more trustworthy than your blue-eyed counterparts.
Proofs/References:
7. Alcoholism – Just Feels Good
Just like drugs, drinking alcohol is a novel task as our ancestors weren’t too fond of alcohol. An experiment done in U.K. shows that brilliant students have more tendency to become alcoholic.
8. Artistic Abilities and Boundless Imagination
Whether it’s the magic world of Harry Potter that captured minds of thousands or Johnny Depp making you think Jack Sparrow really exists or incredible talent of Mozart or Da Vinci’s Eternal Mona Lisa, geniuses express themselves in way world can understand them.
The ability of projecting your thoughts or expression into the world, requires a mind more developed than average. People with high IQs tend to share their thoughts in a way everyone finds understandable and pleasing like poetry, writing, music etc.
9. Atheism – We don’t confess
Researchers say that on average atheists are on average 6/7 points higher than non-atheists. Belief in God has been advantageous throughout evolution, so geniuses often break this trend too. The poorest countries with less education, less IQ (most of which follow rules our ancestors laid foundation of), tend to more religious. Among 137 countries in a study, only 23 had more than 20% atheists, which are all higher IQ countries.
10. Liberalism – Don’t Poke Your Nose in My Business
A research concludes that people who are very liberal in early adolescence have a mean IQ of 106.4 while those with very conservative views have a mean IQ of 94.8. This, as everything else in geniuses, is because they like to challenge evolution, our ancestors valued their own families or individual with more genetic, cultural and geographic similarities as them, while did not share their resources to genetically distinct individuals, interbreeding was not common, thus leading to a conservative approach to protect one’s norms, genes, resources etc. Liberalism is evolutionary novel, thus practiced more by more intelligent people.
11. Weird Hobbies
Geniuses are inclined to ‘weirdness’ or they just don’t follow what averages consider ‘normal’. A genius’ idea of fun is equally weird. Can you guess what Albert Einstein’s hobby was? It was not reading about what researchers have said about electromagnetic rays, neither was it spending hours to derive a mathematical relation between physical quantities, .
12. They Do Things Which Make Other People Ridicule Them
Everyone laughed at , did not they? Because no one had a goal quite like theirs. Darwin was criticized by the scientific community after he presented his . Socrates had to take poison because Greeks believed he had corrupted youth by his radical concepts.
13. Mental Illness – There is not much difference between geniuses and mad, is there?
High IQ and mental disorders go hand in hand. OCD has been associated with above average IQ, bipolar with creativity, autism with music skills, there has not been a genius without ‘crazy’ in history.
14. Being the Oldest Child
Parents interact more emotionally and psychologically to their first child, thus causing the child to develop better intellectually. The oldest children on average have 3 points higher IQ than the closest sibling.
15. Breastfeeding and IQ
Breastfeeding increases IQ by 7-10 points if the child has a variant of . Another study concluded that children breastfed for first 6 months had a verbal IQ of 10.48 points more.
It’s the right side of brain that controls the left side of the body and vice versa. In left-handed people, they can use both side of brain equally, thus being able to process more incoming information.
Researchers have observed that these people have more vocabulary and problem solving capacity, making them somewhat smarter than right-handed people, usually with an IQ of 140 and above. But bad news lefties, research also says you tend to forget things easily because of rapid neurons formation in the .
This is the reason why
and it is same for genius.
17. Have you always been the tallest in class?
A study found that even before children start going to school taller kids perform better on cognitive tests.
18. Being Skinny
Obesity has been shown to decrease IQ over time. A research led by French scientists found that people with Body Mass Index of 20 or below do better in vocabulary test than people with BMI of 30 or more.
19. Being Smart Never Means You Have To Be Truthful
Because more intelligent people are aware of their ability, they lie more than average people when they think it can get them out of a tough situation.
Lying requires the brain to reason and process, more efficiently, scientists have shown that parts of the brain involved in working memory with tend to be more developed in smart people are activated when they lie.
However, a research at the University of Oxford claimed that , so it is likely that trusting people readily is a sign of intelligence.
20. Smart as your Mom!
Genes decide how our brain will develop, so smartness determined
genes are more likely to run in families, smart parents have more chance than average parents to produce smart kids, it has been proved by studies of IQ in identical and fraternal twins. Also, a study has proven that on average, 20 to 40 percent of child’s intelligence is inherited from their parents.
21. Can’t Hear What I’m Thinking!
Once considered a sign of insanity, talking to yourself has shown to improve memory. When there is a storm of thoughts in your mind and you talk to yourself loudly, it will be easy to remember next time, because your mind will know it’s familiar.
22. Gift Me A Guitar Next Time
Part of brain that process the information received are more developed in musician than in an average person. Experiments have shown that learning an instrument can change your brain’s neurophysiology.
23. Don’t Underestimate a Listening Ear!
Geniuses listen more and that’s how they learn, complex auditory processes are involved in listening attentively and storing it in your mind, so obviously smart people are better at it.
So these are the signs of genius, have you found any resemblance in your character? If you do so, then probably you are a genius.
