Ancient Mass Grave of 4 000 Skeletons Discovered in New York
History of Niagara County, New York, 1878
Town of Cambria
Giant Human remains have been found throughout northern New York. They are found in both burial mounds and in mass graves or ossuaries. There is evidence of a series of conflicts that happened along the southern tier of the Great Lakes.
A search enabled them to come to a pit, but a slight distance from the surface. The top of the pit was covered with slabs of the Medina Sandstone, and was twenty-four feet square by four and a half in depth- the planes agreeing with the four cardinal points. It was filled with human bones of both sexes and all ages. They dug down at one extremity, and found the same layers to extend to the bottom, which was the same dry loam, and from their calculations they deduced that at least four thousand souls had perished one great massacre. In one skull two flint arrowheads were found, and many had the appearance of having been fractured and cleft open by a sudden blow. They were piled in regular layers, but with no regard to size or sex… One hundred and fifty persons a day visited this spot the first season, and carried off the bones. They are now nearly all gone and the pit ploughed over. The remains of a wall were traced near the vault. Some of the bones found in the latter were of unusual size. One of these was a thighbone that had been healed of an oblique fracture. One was the upper half of a skull so large that that of a common man would not fill it.

9 Foot Giant Nephilim Skeleton Discovered in Mansfield Ohio
9 Foot Giant Nephilim Skeleton Discovered in Mansfield, Ohio
Mansfield Daily Shield, Nov. 25, 1904
"The skeleton of a human giant was found in the gravel pit east of the city by W. C. Fry, the owner of the pit. He found it measured about nine feet in length. The skull was six times larger than that of the average Caucasian. Professors Metzler and Foerste of the Steele High school believe the bones are those of a member of the primeval race."

Giant Skeleton Discovered in a Cave at Shohola New York
Giant Skeleton Discovered in a Cave at Shohola, New York
Thibodaux Sentinel, December 21, 1901
Hunters from Susquehanna, Pa., while excavating for a hunt near Shoholas Glen, New
York., discovered a cave in which they found the skeleton of a man of gigantic size. It was
swathed in rawhide trappings that kept it in a sitting posture. Near the skeleton were
several bowls of reddish clay but almost as hard as flint. A rude stone tablet was found near
the skeleton side covered with rude pictures of birds and beasts, among them one of a
monster half beast, half reptile. A number of implements were also found in the cave, among
them a huge ax made of stone and stone spear heads of unusual size.

GIANTS SKELETONS
Unearthed at Athens - Though to Have been Indians of Gigantic Proportions
Athens, Ohio, Dec 6 - The skeletons of two Indians have been unearthed along the banks of the Hocking River at Roachs mill, one half mile east of Athens.
The excavation was made under a large building a short distance from the bank of the river. Unearthed a few feet from the skeletons were many arrowheads, which no doubt were buried with the Redskins when they were sent either by accident or natural death to their happy hunting grounds.
The skeletons were evidently those of gigantic men. Judging by the bones, they could have measured less than seven feet in stature. The bones were in an excellent state of preservation, the teeth being firmly imbedded in the maxillary bones.
