It is almost certainly fake, and so are most of the others like it. But underneath the fake photographs sits a much older record: excavation reports, museum specimens, town histories, newspaper accounts and Native oral traditions, written down on two continents by people who never had any contact with each other.This documentary follows that paper trail with three researchers who have spent years in the archives. Hugh Newman and Jim Vieira, co-authors of Giants on Record, trace accounts from Deerfield, Massachusetts to the 1950s university digs that named the "Adena jaw," and across the Atlantic to reports near Stonehenge. Jeffrey Wilson takes Harvard's own photograph of the main burial at Serpent Mound, Ohio and measures it against an artifact of known size. Then an archaeologist answers with a single femur that nobody can identify by catalog number.So if this many accounts exist, where are the bones? The answers include repatriation under NAGPRA, a real and legitimate law; remains that crumbled to dust when they were lifted; and Ales Hrdlicka, the Smithsonian anthropologist who declared the subject closed. The second half turns from bones to what people built and told: Stonehenge's oldest recorded name, the Giant's Dance; the great mounds of Ohio and West Virginia; Vine Deloria on Native traditions of giants; and a Spanish record from 1500s Florida of a chief's family between seven and eight feet tall.No one in this film claims the case is closed. The question it leaves you with is the one we put to every researcher: what single discovery would actually change your mind?CHAPTERS00:00 Cold open00:51 Sponsor: Open Veils02:05 The 12 foot photograph02:41 The Cardiff Giant hoax of 186903:38 The Deerfield skeleton04:17 The Serpent Mound postcard08:40 Two museum skeletons: the Mutter Museum and Thirsk09:53 Measuring the Serpent Mound burial11:54 A counter-measurement from one femur14:30 The Adena jaw and the university digs of the 1950s15:48 Accounts near Stonehenge17:28 Hundreds of accounts on record18:03 Where did the bones go?19:21 Bones that stayed in town20:03 Hrdlicka and the Smithsonian22:57 Extra fingers and toes26:31 What people built and what they told27:22 Goliath and the Indus Valley28:12 Stonehenge, the Giant's Dance30:02 The mounds of Ohio and West Virginia31:45 Vine Deloria and Native oral traditions33:46 Giants and the little people35:18 Newspapers that could not have coordinated36:55 A Spanish record from 1500s Florida38:38 What single discovery would change your mind?GUESTSHugh Newman: https://www.youtube.com/@MegalithomaniaUKJim VieiraJeffrey Wilson
