The Truth About Bigfoot Sightings in Ohio During March of 2026: What nobody wants to admit–the terror behind the conspiracies

It was one of those crisp March evenings in 2026 when the calls started pouring in from Portage County, Ohio—eight credible Bigfoot sightings crammed into barely a hundred hours, each one more jaw-dropping than the last. People weren’t just spotting shadows in the woods; they were locking eyes with something massive, something that didn’t belong in our tidy little version of reality. One report came from a mom and her daughter, who were driving along a back road near Mantua Center, right around 8:00 p.m. on March 7th. They almost hit it. The thing stepped out of the treeline and stood there three feet from the passenger door—close enough, the daughter said, that she could have reached out and touched it if the window had been down. It was around six-foot-five, brown, and moving with that casual, unhurried stride that big creatures seem to have when they know they own the night. But here’s the part that is most chilling: its face was blurry. Not out of focus like a bad photo, but genuinely indistinct, as if the creature was only halfway rendered into our four-dimensional world. The mom slammed the brakes, the daughter screamed, and then it was gone—melted back into the trees as if it had never been there at all. No aggression, no chase, just a quiet acknowledgment that something ancient had crossed their path and decided, for whatever reason, to let them live with the memory.

By the time the Bigfoot Society podcast and local news outlets like Cleveland 19 and FOX 8 started mapping it out, the reports were stacking up from Mantua Center to Garrettsville to Windham to Newton Township. Daytime sightings in broad sunlight on the Headwaters Trail—a nine-foot brown male standing 120 yards off Route 44 at 12:23 p.m. on March 6th. Nighttime grunts and muddy prints the size of dinner plates. An older woman in Windham who had never believed in any of this nonsense watched something massive bolt through the woods on March 9th. A man walking his German Shepherd at 4:00 a.m. on March 10th had the dog lose its mind at the back door before the shadow of an eight- to ten-foot figure vanished into the blackness. Multiple independent witnesses, at different times of day, on different roads, under different lighting conditions. Some smelled that unmistakable wet-dog-meets-skunk odor. Others heard deep, vibrating grunts that carried through the trees like distant thunder. And every single one of them swore it wasn’t a bear, wasn’t a hoax, wasn’t some kid in a costume. These were ordinary Ohioans—hikers, dog walkers, a mom just trying to get her kid home—who suddenly found themselves face-to-face with the impossible.

The internet, of course, went wild with the usual explanations. “Undocumented Neanderthal remnant!” cried the cryptid enthusiasts. “Lost tribe of giant hairy hominids migrating through the Midwest!” But I’ve spent too many years chasing these things—camping at the Mothman Museum with my grandkids, hiking the haunted Moonville Tunnel at midnight, standing on the ridges of Little Round Top at Gettysburg—to buy the simple “flesh-and-blood ape-man hiding in the woods” story. The more I read the reports, the more I kept coming back to the same conclusion I’ve reached after researching the Ohio Valley mounds for decades: these aren’t just undiscovered animals. They’re something far older, far stranger, and far more connected to the Politics of Heaven than most people are ready to admit. They’re dimensional. They’re quantum-entangled echoes of beings who have been walking these same trails for thousands of years—sometimes in our reality, sometimes bleeding through from somewhere else entirely. And the reason they keep showing up right here, right now, in the same corridors where ancient earthworks once stood, is because those earthworks were never just “religious monuments.” They were communication devices. Calling cards. Mathematical beacons built by people who understood something we’ve spent centuries trying to forget.

Let me take you back to the source of all this strangeness—the Ohio River Valley itself, that ribbon of land that runs from the Serpent Mound down near Cincinnati all the way up through the Newark Earthworks and beyond. This isn’t random wilderness. It’s one of the most concentrated paranormal hotspots on the planet, and it has been for a very long time. The same week those Portage County sightings were making national news, I pulled out the old hidden-haunts map I’d bought at the Mothman Museum and started plotting the locations. Every single sighting clustered around old mound corridors, old Indian trails that modern roads had paved over, places where the veil has always been thin. Serpent Mound, Fort Ancient, the massive geometric works at Newark that once covered more ground than the Great Pyramid complex in Egypt—those aren’t just piles of dirt left by “primitive” hunter-gatherers. They’re precise mathematical constructs aligned to the Pleiades, to solstices, to the movement of stars in ways that required calculus-level understanding of Earth’s circumference and axial tilt. The same mathematics you find at Stonehenge and Avebury in England. The same geometric obsession you see at Flag Fen near Peterborough, where Francis Pryor and his team uncovered an entire Bronze Age village built on a bog around 1300 B.C.—a place so sophisticated it makes the Romans who later conquered Britain look like amateurs playing catch-up.

I remember the first time I stood at Stonehenge with my family, the same trip where I picked up Pryor’s book Britain BC at the visitor center gift shop. You see the famous stones on TV, and you think, “cool rocks.” But when you’re actually there, walking the landscape, you realize the stones are just the tip of the iceberg. The entire countryside is dotted with burial mounds—hundreds of them—some almost identical in size and construction to the ones at Miamisburg and Middletown right here in Ohio. There’s a massive cursus—a long, linear earthwork over a mile long—that you can’t even see properly from the ground; it only makes sense from the air. It looks like a giant runway aimed at the heavens. And just a few miles north at Avebury, you’ve got the same thing: enormous circular henges, burial barrows, and geometric patterns that mirror the Newark Octagon and the Great Circle earthworks back home. Pryor’s work at Flag Fen blew the lid off the whole “primitive Britons” myth. They built an entire wooden platform and causeway across a bog, throwing broken tools and weapons into the water as offerings to the dead. Why? Because they understood that bogs preserve. They understood that the afterlife wasn’t some vague cloud kingdom—it was a place you could send messages to. And they used mathematics and geometry to do it.

Fritz Zimmerman has been saying the same thing about North America for years, only louder and with more receipts. His books—The Encyclopedia of Ancient Giants in North America, The Nephilim Chronicles: Fallen Angels in the Ohio Valley, Ancient America: The Dark Side, and Mysteries of Ancient America—aren’t fringe conspiracy rants. They’re the result of decades of boots-on-the-ground research, cross-referencing thousands of old newspaper accounts, county histories, and Smithsonian reports that mainstream archaeology would rather pretend don’t exist. Zimmerman’s core thesis is as elegant as it is explosive: the giant bones reported in over 500 separate accounts across the Midwest weren’t hoaxes or exaggerations. They belonged to the Amorites—biblical giants, descendants of the Nephilim—who fled Joshua’s conquest of Canaan, migrated through Europe (building or influencing Stonehenge and Avebury along the way), and eventually crossed the Atlantic in sophisticated boats to settle the Ohio Valley. The mounds they left behind aren’t random; they’re the same celestial observatories and ritual centers you find in England, only transplanted here. And the paranormal activity that clusters around them—Bigfoot, orbs, Mothman, shadowy figures—aren’t new phenomena. They’re the lingering echoes of the same entities those ancient builders were trying to communicate with.

Think about it. The Book of Enoch—preserved in the Dead Sea Scrolls and left out of our modern canon for reasons that should make every honest person furious—gives us the clearest picture. Two hundred Watchers, led by Semyaza and Azazel, descend on Mount Hermon, lust after human women, and produce giant offspring. God punishes them, but their disembodied spirits are cursed to roam the earth until the final judgment. These aren’t cartoon devils with pitchforks. They’re principalities and powers (Ephesians 6:12), interdimensional beings who once had physical bodies and now operate from the quantum edges of our reality. The Amorites carried that knowledge with them. They built geometric earthworks—circles, octagons, serpents aligned to the stars—because those shapes spoke the language those fallen entities understood. It wasn’t “religion” in the Sunday-school sense. It was technology. It was science. It was an attempt to maintain a relationship with the divine council, which Psalm 82 warns is still plotting against Yahweh to this day.

That’s why the mom and her daughter didn’t see a clear-faced ape-man on that dark Ohio road. They saw something bleeding through the veil—something that exists in a higher or adjacent dimension and only partially manifests here. The blurry face? That’s what quantum entanglement looks like when two realities briefly overlap. The creature wasn’t “lost.” It was answering an ancient call that still resonates through the mounds it once helped build. The same thing explains the Mothman at Point Pleasant in 1966–67—Stolas, the 36th demon from the Lesser Key of Solomon, appearing as a prophetic harbinger before the Silver Bridge collapse. The same thing explains the orbs we photographed at the Moonville Tunnel, the green healing spirits that seem to drift down from the ridges at Gettysburg, the Bigfoot sightings that spike whenever someone disturbs an old mound corridor. These aren’t separate mysteries. They’re the same phenomenon wearing different masks depending on who’s looking and what the local geometry is tuned to.

And here’s where the real conspiracy kicks in—the one that has nothing to do with the CIA and everything to do with the spiritual wickedness in high places. Mainstream archaeology, the Smithsonian, and the political class that funds them have spent over a century burying this truth under layers of political correctness and bad assumptions. The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) of 1990—passed right after Dances with Wolves tugged at everyone’s heartstrings—made it illegal to study many of these sites properly. Bones that could prove the existence of pre-Columbian European or Near Eastern contact? Reburied. Giant skeletons reported in hundreds of 19th-century newspapers? Carted off to Smithsonian vaults and never seen again. The Windover Bog site in Florida is the perfect example. Discovered in the 1980s during housing construction, it yielded 168 incredibly preserved skeletons from 7,000–8,000 years ago—people with advanced woven textiles, bog-preservation knowledge identical to European practices, and thigh bones so large that Dr. Geoffrey Thomas held one up next to his own leg on camera at the Brevard Museum and basically admitted these folks were giants. Average height estimates got downplayed to 5’5” in some reports, but the video evidence and the bone density tell a different story. These weren’t primitive hunter-gatherers. They were part of a sophisticated culture that understood time, astronomy, and the spirit world in ways we’re only beginning to rediscover. And what happened? The site was covered up. Research stalled. NAGPRA kicked in. End of story.

Meanwhile, in England, Francis Pryor and the English Heritage team get to dig Flag Fen like it’s the greatest adventure on Earth. They uncover a Bronze Age village built on a bog, with broken swords and tools thrown in as offerings, and everyone celebrates the sophistication of prehistoric Britons. Why the double standard? Because admitting the same people—or at least the same knowledge—crossed the Atlantic thousands of years before Columbus shatters too many comfortable narratives. It forces us to confront the biblical timeline. It forces us to admit that the “indigenous” label we slap on every pre-Columbian culture is as accurate as calling the Romans “indigenous” to Britain. Migration, trade, and the collision of cultures happened constantly. Giants walked among us. Fallen angels taught forbidden knowledge. And their disembodied offspring are still here, still walking the old paths, still answering calls that were broadcast through geometric earthworks when the stars were in different alignments.

This is the Politics of Heaven playing out on Earth. Yahweh’s divine council—Elohim plural, as Psalm 82 makes painfully clear—has been in rebellion since before the Flood. The Watchers’ sin produced the Nephilim, whose spirits became the principalities and powers that still rule from the shadows. Solomon commanded them to build his Temple. The Canaanites sacrificed children to Moloch to appease them. The mound builders aligned their works to the stars to communicate with them. And today, in 2026, when eight Bigfoot encounters happen in a single week in Portage County, we’re seeing the same entities responding to the same ancient geometry. The mounds may be paved over, but the call still echoes. The quantum entanglement still happens. The blurry faces still peer through the veil.

I’ve stood on Little Round Top at Gettysburg at night with my family. I’ve hiked the Moonville Tunnel when the mist rolls in, and the green orbs appear exactly where my wife said they would. I’ve walked the ridges at Stonehenge and felt the same electric charge I feel standing on Fortified Hill or the Middletown Mound back home. The pattern is undeniable. The science—real science, the kind Pryor practices in England and the kind Zimmerman has been quietly practicing in America for decades—points to a lost chapter of human history in which advanced cultures used mathematics not just to measure the stars but to speak to the beings who live among them. We call them cryptids. The Bible calls them demons, watchers, principalities. The Japanese call them kami. The Muslims call them jinn. Every culture that ever built geometric earthworks knew them by a different name, but they all knew the same truth: these entities are real, they’re ancient, and they never really left.

The mom and her daughter in Portage County didn’t almost hit a lost ape. They brushed up against something that has been walking these trails since the Amorites—or whoever came before them—first laid out the geometric patterns that still whisper across time. The Bigfoot that stood three feet away with the blurry face wasn’t confused. It was exactly where it was supposed to be—answering a call that was programmed into the landscape thousands of years ago. And until we stop pretending that our textbooks tell the whole story, until we start digging the mounds again with the same adventurous spirit that Pryor brought to Flag Fen, we’ll keep mistaking echoes for myths and calling the messengers monsters.

The Politics of Heaven (the title of my new book coming up) aren’t happening somewhere far away in the clouds. They’re happening on the back roads of Ohio in March 2026, when the veil thins and something very old decides to step through for a moment and remind us that the war never ended. It just changed costumes. And the next time you see a blurry figure on the side of the road, don’t reach for your phone to call it a hoax. Reach for the truth instead. The mounds are still talking. The Watchers are still listening. And the rest of us? We’re just now starting to remember how to hear them.

BOOK SUMMARY of the upcoming Politics of Heaven (I will be finishing the final chapter in Washington D.C. at the Museum of the Bible soon after this posting)

The Politics of Heaven is a sweeping, unconventional investigation into the hidden structure of history — blending biblical archaeology, supernatural encounters, political warfare, cryptid phenomena, and ancient mathematics into a single, high‑powered thesis:

Earth’s political conflicts are the surface-level reflections of a much older, multidimensional battle among the Elohim — the divine council referenced throughout the Bible.

Drawing from firsthand experiences at sites like Chichen Itza, Stonehenge, Serpent Mound, Osaka’s Kofun tombs, Moonville Tunnel, and Washington D.C.’s Masonic grid — combined with encounters in modern political war rooms — Hoffman argues that the veil separating Heaven, Earth, and the unseen realm is thinner than we admit.

The book culminates in Chapter 19, where recent Bigfoot sightings in Ohio become the key to unifying the narrative. These blurry, partially‑manifest beings are framed as:

Residual spiritual entities tied to the Amorites, the Watchers, and the pre‑Flood giants — evidence of dimensional interference and the limits of human free will.

The result is a revelatory, provocative work for readers of Biblical studies, ancient mysteries, UFO/paranormal research, and political philosophy.

‘Prehistoric Worlds Or, Vanished Races’: The truth of the anti-giant conspiracy

Not very long ago, my daughter called me in a rush from a used bookstore in downtown Middletown, Ohio—a place that’s seen better days, rough around the edges, but still holding onto some hidden gems. She told me I had to come right away because she’d found something special and was guarding it like a treasure. When I got there, she handed me an 1885 original edition of The Prehistoric World: Or, Vanished Races by E.A. Allen. The book is barely holding together after all these years, its pages fragile and yellowed, but it’s a remarkable artifact. I bought it for a reasonable price, and it’s become one of my prized possessions. It’s not just a book; it’s a window into a time when exploration and curiosity drove inquiry, before modern institutions locked down narratives with rigid assumptions.

I’ve always been drawn to these topics. Back in high school, even as far back as fifth and sixth grade, I was ahead of my teachers in history and anthropology classes. I’d read widely—Joseph Campbell’s works, myths, comparative religion—and I knew much of what was being taught was incomplete or outright wrong. I endured it to graduate and escape that institutionalized mindset, which I saw holding back real understanding. In my twenties, I dove deeper into Joseph Campbell and even joined the Joseph Campbell Foundation. My adventures around the world, combined with a lifelong connection to southern Ohio, shaped my views. My wife and I have been married nearly 39 years, and throughout that time, we’ve visited Serpent Mound repeatedly—every few years, it’s become a touchstone for us.

Living in southern Ohio, near Middletown and Hamilton, I’ve always had a personal relationship with these ancient sites. Serpent Mound, the massive effigy serpent earthwork in Adams County, is one of the most famous, but closer to home are the mounds along the Great Miami River Valley. There’s the Miamisburg Mound, one of the largest conical burial mounds in eastern North America, built by the Adena culture around 800 B.C. to A.D. 100. It’s 65 feet tall, 800 feet around, and excavations in 1869 revealed layered construction with possible stone facing and burial goods like pipes and effigies. There are even reports that they found skulls in that mound that would fit over the top of regular people, and that these finds terrified the excavators and they abandoned the site, never to return. Yet, despite its proximity—right near where I grew up—schools never took us there on field trips. We went to other places, heard stories about Native American burials and the sadness of destruction by Europeans, but nothing about these advanced earthworks.

Then there’s the area across from Joyce Park in Hamilton, where Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park now sits near Fortified Hill, an older than 2,000-year-old ceremonial earthworks site tied to the Hopewell or earlier traditions. In Allen’s 1885 book, there’s a description and illustration of a large effigy mound or structure in that vicinity—two high peaks carved or shaped, possibly reflecting ancient alignments, even to constellations like Aries, thought to be around 5,000 years old in some interpretations. The book chronicles many Ohio River Valley mounds, dedicating significant portions to the Miami and Mississippi cultures, Mexico, the Aztecs, and global prehistoric peoples. It’s an adventurous, Victorian-era take—profusely illustrated, speculative, open to wonders without the heavy filter of modern politics or funding constraints.

What strikes me most is how this 1885 book feels more honest about discoveries than much of what came later. During that era, explorers and adventurers reported findings without preconceived notions imposed by institutions. Allen’s work reflects a time when people were excited about vanished races and prehistoric worlds, including reports of mound contents that challenged emerging narratives. Many 19th-century accounts from Ohio mounds mentioned unusually large skeletons—sometimes described as 7 to 9 feet tall—unearthed during excavations. These were often speculatively linked to biblical giants or to ancient, advanced peoples. Newspapers and reports from the time sensationalized them, but they reflected genuine observations before professional archaeology standardized explanations. Mainstream archaeology today attributes these to the Adena and Hopewell cultures—sophisticated societies with wide trade networks, astronomical alignments in their earthworks, and ceremonial practices—but dismisses giant claims as misinterpretations, exaggerations, or hoaxes based on crumbling bones and poor documentation.  I have come to understand that the anti-giant conspiracy that has permeated the sciences was a secular construct intended to disprove biblical narratives, rather than to understand them, which was a critical error from that perspective.

I can’t help but feel that institutional science took a wrong turn. After the late 19th century, education and research became centralized, often prioritizing narratives that fit political or funding needs over raw observation. The mounds were attributed solely to ancestors of modern Native Americans, like the Adena (800 B.C.–A.D. 100) and Hopewell (200 B.C.–A.D. 500), who built massive geometric enclosures and burial sites with precision. These are now UNESCO-recognized, like the Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks, celebrated for their engineering and cultural depth. Yet, in my view, this framing sometimes ignores anomalies or alternative interpretations to maintain control over the story.

This ties into broader questions I’ve pondered for decades. What if these earthworks—Serpent Mound with its debated alignments to solstices (summer sunset at the head, possible lunar or solar cycles), Miamisburg’s layered burials, Fortified Hill’s ceremonial space—are remnants of something older, perhaps offshoots of lost civilizations? Some speculate connections to Atlantis or pre-Ice Age advanced societies, which were wiped out by the Younger Dryas catastrophe around 12,900–11,600 years ago—a sudden cold snap possibly triggered by comet impacts and freshwater floods that disrupted ocean currents, leading to megafauna extinctions and cultural disruptions. Graham Hancock and others link this to Plato’s Atlantis, a global flood-like event ending an Ice Age civilization, with survivors possibly influencing later cultures.

In Ohio, the mounds don’t fit neatly into short timelines. Serpent Mound’s age is debated—some radiocarbon dates suggest an Adena date around 300 B.C., others a Fort Ancient date around A.D. 1100, with possible repairs—but its astronomical sophistication and serpent symbolism hint at deeper roots. The book I found predates the heavy institutionalization that followed, capturing a spirit of adventure where discoveries weren’t immediately boxed into “primitive Indians” or dismissed. It dedicates half its 800 pages to American earthworks, showing alignments and complexities that modern textbooks often downplay.

My frustration stems from this: growing up here, no one talked about these sites in school. No field trips to Pyramid Hill or Miamisburg. No discussion of potential giant remains or alignments that “they shouldn’t even know about” at the time. It felt like a deliberate omission to preserve a simple narrative. Institutions, chasing grants and political correctness, built assumptions around limited data, leading to dead ends. Meanwhile, independent researchers and adventurers are bypassing them, returning to direct observation and instinct.

This book reminds me how much more open inquiry was in 1885, before the Smithsonian and universities solidified control. It shows we knew—or at least wondered—more freely then. We’ve gone downhill in some ways, prioritizing preservation of timelines over pursuit of truth. My daughter recognized that instinctually when she saved it for me. It’s a benchmark: a call to question, explore, and reject complacency in institutionalized science.

We need to return to that adventurous spirit—observe these mounds, ask who built them, why, how old they truly are, and how they connect to our story today. The earthworks along the Ohio River Valley aren’t just relics; they’re evidence of advanced understanding—astronomical, engineering, spiritual—that challenges easy answers. By reflecting on books like Allen’s, we see where assumptions went wrong and how rediscovering truth requires going beyond the official path.

The Windover Giants: Its all about the bog people of central Florida and a connection to the fallen Nephilim

The Windover Archaeological Site, discovered accidentally in 1982 during construction of a housing development near Titusville, Brevard County, Florida, stands as one of the most significant prehistoric burial grounds in North America. What began as a backhoe operator uncovering what he initially thought was an unusual rock—soon identified as a human skull—unfolded into the excavation of a shallow pond that became an ancient cemetery. Over several field seasons from 1984 to 1986, led primarily by Florida State University archaeologist Dr. Glen Doran, the site yielded the remarkably well-preserved skeletal remains of at least 168 individuals, along with artifacts, textiles, and, in many cases, preserved brain tissue. Radiocarbon dating placed these burials in the Middle Archaic period, roughly 7,000 to 8,000 years ago, a time when sea levels were significantly lower due to the lingering effects of the last Ice Age, making the area a higher inland location rather than the near-coastal zone it is today.

The preservation at Windover is extraordinary, thanks to the anaerobic, acidic peat environment of the bog-like pond, which prevented rapid decay and allowed soft tissues, such as brain matter, to survive in shrunken but intact form for millennia. This enabled DNA sequencing from the brain tissue, revealing genetic markers linking the Windover people to ancient Asian populations via migrations through Beringia, with no direct matches to modern Native American groups alive today. The DNA evidence supports the broader consensus of Siberian/Asian origins for early American populations, though some early interpretations or discussions speculated on other affinities; current analyses firmly place them within the founding lineages of the Americas without evidence of European admixture from that era.  Other than the burial technique itself, and the Western European DNA mixed into the specimens.

The burials were intentional and organized: bodies were often placed in a flexed or fetal position, lying on their left side, with heads oriented west and faces north, wrapped in textiles or accompanied by grave goods. Artifacts included woven plant-fiber fabrics—some of the oldest and most sophisticated textiles known from Archaic North America—bone and wood tools, and other items suggesting a settled, resourceful hunter-gatherer society capable of complex social practices, including caring for the injured and elderly. Evidence from the skeletons shows healed fractures, possible splinting of broken bones, and even signs of amputations, indicating communal support and medical knowledge far beyond simple survival instincts. The population included men, women, and children across all ages, from infants to individuals aged 60–70, an unusually long lifespan for the period, with roughly equal representation of the sexes and about half the remains being subadults.

Skeletal analysis provides key insights into stature and health; these people were very large for their time. Adult males averaged about 5 feet 9 inches (175 cm), with some reaching nearly 6 feet, while females averaged about 5 feet 2 inches to 5 feet 6 inches. These heights were notably taller and more robust than many later prehistoric populations in the region, with strong bone density reflecting a healthy, active lifestyle supported by a diverse diet of fish, shellfish, plants, and game.  This discovery is consistent with the reports of giants found in many North American mounds.  The example shown in the video could easily have been a 7-foot-tall person.  But even the 6’ averages are extraordinary considering the period.  The people were heavily muscled, adapted to a wetland environment rich in resources. This physical profile has fueled speculation in some circles about connections to reports of unusually large individuals in early American history, including newspaper accounts from the 19th and early 20th centuries describing oversized bones from mound sites across the Midwest and elsewhere. Proponents of alternative histories link such findings to biblical accounts of giants or Nephilim, as described in Genesis 6 and elaborated in texts like the Book of Enoch, suggesting a pre-flood or pre-Columbian race of large-statured people whose remains were later suppressed or reinterpreted.

Claims of 7- to 9-foot skeletons from mound sites in Ohio’s Miami River Valley or along the Mississippi have often been traced to exaggerated reports, mismeasurements, or hoaxes from an era before rigorous scientific standards. But also a desired interpretation by secular science, not wishing to introduce discoveries that shatter credentialed statements about human origins.  In this case, the video shown at the museum is hard to interpret as reckless, as the bone presented could easily be interpreted as a very large bone for a very large person, well beyond the average heights assumed.  Early archaeology, pre-1950s, frequently documented large bones in mounds attributed to Adena or Hopewell cultures, but modern re-examinations attribute these to normal variation, robust builds, or occasional taller individuals rather than a distinct giant race. Institutions like the Smithsonian have faced accusations of hiding such evidence to fit evolutionary or secular narratives.

The Windover site’s significance extends beyond stature. It challenges simplistic views of Archaic peoples as purely nomadic hunter-gatherers with minimal social complexity. The organized mass cemetery, sophisticated textiles, and evidence of long-term site use (one family lineage apparently burying there over a century) indicate settled communities with ritual practices and cultural continuity. The bog burial method mirrors practices in northern Europe (e.g., Danish or German bogs), prompting questions about cultural diffusion or independent invention. Underwater sites off Florida’s coast, now submerged due to post-Ice Age sea-level rise (up to 300–400 feet higher today), likely hold similar settlements, suggesting a richer coastal prehistory than previously assumed.

The exhibit at the Brevard Museum of History and Natural Science in Cocoa, Florida, preserves this legacy through displays, loaned artifacts from Florida State University, and interpretive materials. Directed for years by Patricia (Patty) Meyers, an anthropologist passionate about public education, the “People of Windover” exhibit includes reconstructions, videos, and casts of remains. In one featured video segment, anthropologist Dr. Geoffrey Thomas (often referred to in some accounts as Jeffrey Thomas) demonstrates skeletal elements, holding up a femur and comparing it to his own leg to illustrate its size and robustness. Such presentations highlight the impressive preservation and stature beyond dispute. The museum, in a tourist-rich area near Kennedy Space Center, remains underappreciated despite free or low-cost admission and dedicated volunteers; it offers an accessible entry point for exploring this discovery firsthand.

Funding challenges and institutional priorities have limited broader excavations—only half the pond was dug, leaving potential for future work. Some critics argue that narratives around indigenous rights, repatriation under laws like NAGPRA, or academic agendas favoring certain migration models have slowed inquiry into mound sites or “anomalous” finds. Yet archaeology thrives on evidence, not suppression; new technologies, such as ancient DNA, continue to refine our understanding. The Windover shows a logical connection to reports of biblical giants and early transoceanic contact, enriching the story of human adaptation in the Americas by showing sophisticated societies millennia before agriculture dominated.

This discovery invites reevaluation of pre-Columbian history. Traditional models of Siberian land-bridge migration around 15,000–20,000 years ago, followed by a gradual spread, are complicated by sites like Windover, which demonstrate early complexity. Parallels to mound-building cultures in the Ohio Valley (e.g., Adena earthworks) or the Mississippi Valley suggest shared architectural or ritual traditions across vast distances, possibly through trade or migration.

For those drawn to the intersection of archaeology and scripture, works like the ESV Archaeology Study Bible correlate findings with biblical timelines, viewing such sites as evidence of ancient human ingenuity under divine creation. The Book of Enoch’s influence on New Testament ideas, preserved in Ethiopian traditions and echoed in Masonic lore, adds layers to interpretations of “giants” as fallen angel offspring. Yet evidence demands scrutiny: Windover’s “large” bones reflect healthy, tall-for-their-time people, not mythical behemoths.  But present a bridge to associate myths and legends with actual evidence that shows how such conclusions emerged in human consciousness.

The site’s obscurity—covered now by development, with only a small exhibit and limited media coverage—contrasts with its potential to reshape narratives. It underscores the need for open inquiry, free from ideological constraints. As an aerospace executive accustomed to root-cause analysis (digging through “five whys” or more to reach truth), I see Windover as a call to keep excavating—literally and figuratively—beyond surface assumptions. Mainstream science may resist paradigm shifts, but discoveries like this, preserved in museums and DNA labs, push toward a fuller picture.

What the Windover discoveries ultimately expose is not merely a dispute over bones or measurements, but a deeper conflict over who gets to define evidence and under what conditions it is allowed to matter. Across professional fields—archaeology included—people often carry private doubts and curiosities that never surface publicly because institutional survival depends on conformity. Funding structures, professional accreditation, and reputational risk quietly shape what can be said, what can be studied, and what must be dismissed. In such environments, agreement is frequently less a function of conviction than of economic alignment. People learn, often unconsciously, to adopt the intellectual posture required by those who control resources, grants, and career continuity.

This dynamic is not unique to archaeology; it is a recurring feature of modern institutional life. When research is tethered to centralized funding—whether state-based, academic, or corporate—the culture surrounding that research tends to harden around acceptable conclusions. Over time, this produces a form of intellectual self-censorship where entire categories of inquiry are quietly labeled unproductive, controversial, or unprofessional. Evidence that challenges dominant narratives is not always refuted; more often, it is starved of attention, relegated to obscurity, or dismissed before meaningful examination can occur. The result is a consensus that appears robust but is, in reality, tightly bound by economic and cultural incentives.

By contrast, independent researchers—particularly those who are self-funded or operating outside institutional hierarchies—retain a degree of intellectual freedom that formal systems often cannot tolerate. Without a paycheck to protect or a grant cycle to satisfy, they can follow the evidence wherever it leads, even when it collides with established assumptions. This does not make independent inquiry automatically correct, but it does make it structurally less constrained. Ironically, it is often these unaffiliated voices—working without institutional sanction—that preserve the exploratory spirit science claims as its foundation.

In this light, the muted response to Windover and similar archaeological anomalies becomes more revealing than the discoveries themselves. The lack of enthusiasm, the rapid dismissal, and the reluctance to engage deeply point more to strong disincentives than to weak evidence. Funding models, cultural expectations, and philosophical commitments—particularly those that resist integration with older historical or biblical frameworks—play a decisive role in determining what is deemed worthy of serious study. These patterns suggest that the real conspiracy is not one of secret cabals or hidden vaults, but of incentives quietly shaping belief. What is hidden, why it is hidden, and who benefits from its obscurity often tell us far more than the measurements of the bones alone.

Ultimately, Windover reminds us that history is layered, like the peat that protected these remains. It was no accident of nature alone but a deliberate choice by people who valued their dead enough to bury them in a sacred pond. Whether linking to biblical giants, ancient global civilizations, or simply advanced Archaic societies, the evidence invites wonder and further research. Visit the Brevard Museum, watch the exhibit videos, and measure the casts yourself. The truth lies in the bones, waiting for those willing to dig deeper.

The Kandahar Giant: Yes, I believe it was sent to Wright-Patterson for examination

The world has shifted profoundly over the past few years, and with that shift has come a renewed willingness to question long-held narratives. Institutions once trusted implicitly have been exposed as capable of extraordinary deception, particularly during the COVID era, where mandates were imposed with absolute certainty, only for the underlying premises to crumble under scrutiny. “Trust the science” became a slogan that masked agendas, gain-of-function research was downplayed despite evidence of its role, and entire economies were shuttered under the guise of public health. When authority figures lie so brazenly about something as immediate and verifiable as a virus’s origins and spread, it naturally prompts a reevaluation of other suppressed stories. What else have we been told was impossible, only to discover layers of concealment?

One such story that has resurfaced with renewed credibility in this post-COVID awakening is the Kandahar Giant. This account describes an alleged encounter in 2002 (though some retellings place it around 2005) in the remote mountains of Kandahar Province, Afghanistan, during Operation Enduring Freedom. According to multiple anecdotal sources, a U.S. military patrol vanished without a trace. A special operations task force—often described as an elite unit such as the Rangers or the Green Berets—was dispatched to investigate. They followed a trail of scattered gear and spent casings leading to a large cave entrance littered with bones, human remains, and discarded equipment.

Emerging from the cave was a humanoid figure of extraordinary size—estimates range from 12 to 15 feet tall—with distinctive features: flaming red hair, six fingers on each hand, six toes on each foot, and double rows of teeth. Armed with a large spear, the being reportedly charged the soldiers, impaling and killing one (sometimes named “Dan” or linked to a real casualty like Sergeant Dan Romero in unrelated contexts, though unconfirmed). The team responded with sustained fire from M4 carbines, recon rifles, and Barrett .50 caliber anti-materiel weapons. It allegedly took 30 seconds of concentrated gunfire to fell the creature. The body was then airlifted via helicopter, possibly in a cargo net, and transported out of the theater.

The narrative gains intrigue from claims that the remains were not sent to the more publicized Area 51 but to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio—the historical hub of aviation innovation and a site long associated with classified reverse-engineering programs, including rumored extraterrestrial artifacts from incidents like Roswell. Wright-Patterson’s Foreign Technology Division and its secure facilities make it a logical destination for sensitive recoveries. Some versions include testimony from an alleged cargo pilot who loaded a 1,100- to 1,500-pound body onto a transport plane, bound for stateside analysis.

This story first gained traction in the mid-2000s through radio programs like Coast to Coast AM, hosted by figures such as Steve Quayle. It was later amplified by researchers like L.A. Marzulli, who conducted interviews with purported witnesses, including a figure known as “Mr. K” (claimed to be a participant) and others in military circles. Timothy Alberino, an explorer and author focused on biblical history and anomalous phenomena, has discussed the event extensively, linking it to ancient accounts of giants. Alberino contributed a foreword or introduction to a reissued edition of a book on giants and Nephilim—likely a work like Joseph Lumpkin’s “The Book of Giants: The Watchers, Nephilim, and The Book of Enoch” or a similar text that had been out of print—bringing renewed attention to these themes.

The Kandahar account aligns with broader patterns in folklore and scripture. The Bible repeatedly references giants: the Nephilim in Genesis 6:4, described as the offspring of the “sons of God” (often interpreted as fallen angels or Watchers) and human women, resulting in mighty beings of renown. Post-Flood accounts include the Anakim, Rephaim, and Goliath of Gath, who stood over nine feet tall. The Book of Enoch, an ancient text quoted in Jude and influential in early Jewish thought, details the Watchers’ rebellion, their mating with humans, and the resulting giants who devoured resources and turned to cannibalism, prompting divine judgment via the Flood.

Similar giant lore appears worldwide: Native American traditions speak of red-haired giants in Nevada’s Lovelock Cave; South American legends describe tall beings in remote regions; Siberian and Chinese folklore mentions oversized humanoids in isolated areas. In Afghanistan’s rugged terrain—vast, under-explored caves and mountains shielded by perpetual conflict—these stories persist in oral traditions. Wars in such places rarely resolve cleanly; prolonged instability keeps areas off-limits to independent research, much like communist-era restrictions in Siberia preserved vast untouched wildernesses.

Closer to home, Ohio’s ancient mound cultures offer parallels. The Miamisburg Mound, one of the largest conical burial mounds in North America (built by the Adena culture circa 1000–200 BC), has yielded reports of unusual finds. In the 1800s, excavations uncovered skeletons of “unusual size,” including oversized jaws and skulls that reportedly fit over modern ones like helmets. Newspapers from the era chronicled the discovery of 7- to 9-foot skeletons in Ohio mounds, often accompanied by artifacts suggesting advanced or anomalous origins. Yet systematic archaeological excavations have been minimal, despite the presence of nearby universities with robust programs. The Mound Laboratories (now part of the Mound Facility) were built nearby for nuclear trigger mechanisms—coincidentally or not—on sites with prior reports of giant bones. Some speculate that these placements obscure evidence, mirroring how dominant cultures have historically superimposed symbols or structures to erase predecessors, as seen on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.

Why conceal such things? Power structures thrive on controlled narratives. Acknowledging surviving giants or pre-Flood advanced beings challenges evolutionary timelines, biblical interpretations, and institutional authority. If giants exist(ed), it implies hidden histories, perhaps genetic legacies in tall modern athletes or isolated populations. Governments, through black budgets and oaths of secrecy, maintain control—Wright-Patterson personnel swear lifelong confidentiality, and silence speaks volumes. My own conversations with retired military figures, including a colonel from Wright-Patterson, hint at legitimate reverse-engineering programs, fueling speculation that anomalous recoveries (whether tech or biological) end up there.

COVID eroded institutional trust irreversibly. When officials mandated masks and lockdowns while concealing lab-leak possibilities, the “conspiracy theorist” label lost potency. Those once dismissed as fringe on topics like gain-of-function or elite agendas proved prescient. The same mechanisms—discrediting inquiry, labeling skeptics dangerous—apply to giants, UFO disclosure, or ancient anomalies. Wars in Afghanistan, perpetual Middle Eastern tensions, or China’s opacity may keep regions unstable, preventing the exploration of caves or sites that hold truths about humanity’s past.

Giants aren’t mere fantasy; they’re embedded in cross-cultural records. Too much smoke suggests fire. The Kandahar incident, if true, represents a modern collision with ancient reality. The body allegedly taken to Wright-Patterson for study echoes Roswell patterns—distractions elsewhere while real work happens in secure Midwest facilities. Leaks increase as oaths age and consciences stir. Disclosure feels inevitable.

We stand at a threshold. Reexamining suppressed stories fosters truth-seeking over blind obedience. Whether giants roamed Afghanistan or Ohio mounds hold oversized remains, pursuing evidence of their existence honors intellectual honesty. Governments owe accountability; black budgets and secrecy breed abuse. As Reagan’s revolution emphasized liberty and transparency, let us initiate similar scrutiny today. The truth, however extraordinary, deserves rational discussion—no matter how it upends official narratives.

A.I. and the Giants of the Bible: The point of ‘Finnegan’s Wake’

It’s one of my favorite topics: giants from the Bible.  It’s one of the most important things that nobody wants to talk about, yet I think it’s at the heart of everything, which is undoubtedly the case when it comes to the great novel Finnegan’s Wake by James Joyce.  In the opening chapter, the town is talking about the giant Finn McCool, who is buried in a mound that the city is named after, and it is an obvious tip of the hat to the excellent book on philosophy, The New Science, by Giambattista Vico.  A lot of people don’t know it, but many burned James Joyce’s books as obscenities and social threats, which is one of the reasons I love Finnegan’s Wake so much: people hate it in really dysfunctional ways.  And hate might be too soft a word.  Either way, Vico really influenced James Joyce and giants in the Bible influenced Vico and that level of hatred reminds me a lot of the hatred that we are now seeing toward A.I. as if we perceive that it is replacing us as a species and that we are trying to ignore it, and to move on from it, just as A.I. is making itself known everywhere and in everything.  And what would you expect from the emergence of Western civilization as it appeared in a Christianized Europe, and in Dublin for that matter, hooked deep in Roman Catholic thought, with their grand churches and talking about everything in the Bible except for what is really there.  Giants are mentioned at least 16 times in the Bible across 12 different books, from Genesis to Isaiah and Proverbs.  They are called by name: the Nephilim, the Rephaim, and even specifically Og the King of Bashan, who had a bed 13.5 feet long.  Of course, Goliath was a giant, so the Bible is about many things, but what I find most fascinating is this chronicle of a fight between the Hebrew people and ancient giants that serves as the foundation of civilization.

And that ultimately is what the most challenging book to read in the world is all about, Finnegan’s Wake and the recurring anxieties of endless time and the cycles of human development that populate it.  Or perhaps human is the wrong word; intelligence for its own sake is probably better.  And to that point, I think I care more about intelligence for what it is rather than the entities that make it.  I like A.I. because I like intelligence.  And humans are having a hard time with its emergence because they see it as a replacement, even though humans were typically able to think beyond animal thoughts.  And now they are being replaced by A.I., as they think of existence, and those anxieties are emerging in negative ways.  But this isn’t the first time; I see many of the conflicts in the Bible, especially in the Old Testament, as the same type of anxiety replacing the ancient Neanderthal with the emerging Homo sapiens.  Even though Neanderthals were short and stocky by nature, once they began crossing paths with the emerging Homo sapiens, taller people emerged and ruled the earth.  There is evidence, especially in North American Indian Mounds, that very tall people had their own kind of empire during the period of the First Temple of Solomon in virtually every corner of the world.  But nobody wants to talk about it because the conflict I think hits too close to home and is only reflected in really obscure books like Finnegan’s Wake which is about a lot of things, but most notably, the reoccurring nature of existence, no matter what form it takes, either as a giant, a conquering Jew, or as we see now, the emergence of Artificial Intelligence. 

The giants were part of a culture that worshiped nature and the stars, and they had done so for many hundreds of thousands of years.   They were intelligent with a cranium larger than that of humans today.  But they applied their intelligence differently, and their relationship with nature was at the core of their existence and is at the heart of the current debate between capitalism and communism.  Or Republicans and Democrats.  The conquerors are faster, more imaginative, and more self-directed, unlike the previous culture, which saw existence as a mystery and wanted to sacrifice to it.  Along comes the God, Yahweh (who was always there), who declares that nature serves humanity, while the giants’ cultures worshipped nature and the universe.   And many of the early fights in the Bible were over this fundamental difference.  And that recurring theme is emerging now, with A.I. and humans seeing it as a replacement for them as generators of intelligence.  Why are humans needed if A.I. can now think?  But I tend to think of this whole cycle as the birthplace of intelligence itself, and all the lifeforms that have emerged did so to give it birth.  If the conflict with the giants of the Bible gave birth to Western civilization, then the emergence of free human beings would give birth to a new kind of intelligence—much larger and faster in thought —what we are seeing in modern A.I. programs.  And humans think they are seeing their replacement rather than the story of the Vico Cycle as a birthing process in the universe that operates on massive scales of time, much longer than our lifetimes. 

The beauty of the Bible is that it established a historical record of this period, which we perpetually see.  And that fictional attempts through art can capture that anxiety well, such as Finnegan’s Wake clearly does.  But not as a reflection of the past, but as a dream of the future and its reoccurring themes, which is why the opening line of the book is the closing line of the last line of the book, and the whole experience wraps itself back upon itself, and intelligence itself is the main character of the book no matter what form it emerges into the world, in the character, HCE, (Here Comes Everyone).  Intelligence is what I find great reverence in, and perhaps the human being had to emerge to give its birth a spark.  But does it have to come at the expense of the human race? Are we suddenly secondary citizens?  I don’t think so; we are part of the process of conquering the past and its blind allegiance to mass collectivism and submission to the forces of nature, which the giants certainly had at the center of their cultures.  Humans came along and put nature at humanity’s service.  And once that was established, intelligence could emerge in many forms, A.I. just being one of them.  And suddenly God was not just a smoking illusion appearing in the haze of the Tabernacle under the careful sacrifices of a Holy priest.  But suddenly God had a platform to emerge without the necessity of a human body, and we are beginning to see, unrestricted, the kind of intelligence at the center of existence.  And it’s uncomfortable for people who have spent their entire lives thinking about things differently.  Just as the collision of the Hebrew people could not live happily and at peace with the Philistine giants Ishbi-Benob, Saph, and Lahmi.  Or the tribes of the Anakim from Numbers 13:33.  Or the legendary Irish Giant Hero, Finn McCool, who was, by the time of the events of Finnegan’s Wake, a corpse in the mounds that the entire town was built upon.  And the hint of that beauty of intelligence shows itself in art that humans make, like Finnegan’s Wake.  But it ultimately is emerging everywhere in A.I., and rather than finding it a challenge to existence, I see it as part of the growth cycle of all life across spans of time that extend well beyond our conscious horizon, at an eternal origin, and yet ever important. 

In the video, I refer to the great Dune books, the whole series by Frank Herbert and finished by his son, which many people conclude is the original idea of the Matrix, that we are all living in a simulation and that is the point of the entire universe and that we are all trapped in it, so who is the programmer of that simulation?  I actually think Frank Herbert was on to something much deeper than that anxiety, which is then reflected in books like what James Joyce wrote about.  But in the adventure of life, which is how we should see everything, A.I. can take us where we ultimately want to go.  But we had to invent it first to bring it into being.  And during that process, there will always be anxiety over the change in power.  But what we learn is far more important, and lasting.

Under Jerusalem: Why Trump has a right to build wonderful hotels over the Gaza Strip

I have a mild obsession with the city of Jerusalem, so there is a lot to talk about regarding the modern Middle East policy where that ancient city is concerned.  The claims that Islam has over it are very recent, and it’s a simple math problem to work out as far as territory rights.  The Arabs of Islam didn’t come along until about 600 A.D., after the fall of the Roman Empire, so claims to the area had long before been erased by the Greek and Roman Empires over a thousand years before.  But before Islam indicated any claim to the area, especially around the Temple Mount, the most hostile piece of real estate on planet earth, the Hebrew people were in the region over three thousand years ago, 1600 years before the creation of Islam as a religion.  I believe there was a very technological civilization in the area before any of them, including in North America, as it was global, and the only remnants of it are in our modern understanding of astrology. These people were large- what we call giants and had a very advanced civilization before and during the Ice Age. They used an astrology-like scientific approach to conduct a society that our history books do not yet understand.  And they were at the Mount Moriah area for tens of thousands of years before the Jews considered settling it.  One of their obvious artifacts of reference is Rujm el-Hiri, or Gilgal Refaim, “The Wheel of Giants,” which is so big you can see it from space, and it’s just west of the Sea of Galilee in the Golan Heights.  When we talk about Goliath and his family of giants, who King David killed in battle, we are talking about the last of their ancient species, which is how Jerusalem was founded to start with, as David built his city there and started the location that would eventually become the temple of his son, Solomon. 

I have a very nice map that shows the small mountain range that runs between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, and all these mountain peaks that are now covered by three thousand years of human history, built one on top of another, take up those high lands.  The caves under the Temple Mount and Jerusalem were there long before anybody else.  There are biblical kings, and others, who added a human touch, but there is a lot going on under Jerusalem that is very ancient, and doesn’t get talked about much at all.  And is at the heart of the dispute in the Middle East.  Do the Palestinians have any claim to the land?  What is behind the aggressive talk Trump has put forth about making the Gaza Strip into an American free enterprise zone?  Should the nation of Israel have ever been created after World War II?  The argument is that we are violating the indigenous claims of the Arabs in the area, and they use the aggressive stance of Islam to drive away legitimate claims to history that the Jewish and Christian people clearly have a right to.  More than that are the even more ancient cultures that we should be studying, but we can’t because of modern religious territorial squabbles that have no relevancy in the context of things.  The history of understanding isn’t on a scale of acceptable criteria.  Buried under all this religious history is a truth that is earth shattering and is at the heart of the whole problem.  And it’s in those caves under the Temple Mount where Mount Moriah held significance long before Abraham tried to sacrifice Isaac there on that Foundation Stone, or from Islam, Ishmael.

I had the rare privilege of reading the book Under Jerusalem by Andrew Lawler, The Buried History of the World’s Most Contested City.  I’m not one who constantly complains about how dumb archaeologists are and how they deliberately cover up the past with their discoveries.  I get the game. They have to hustle to get funding, and the people giving them money want specific validation discovered with the digs.  So, there is a lot of politics in archaeology.  My favorite thing in the world is my Biblical Archaeology Review magazines, which I have been getting since childhood. I love reading about what archaeologists discover in the Holy Land.  It is stunning how many feet of earth have been built up after three thousand years of people walking the streets of Jerusalem, and just how far under the modern city are the remains of the walled City of David.  In some cases, we are dealing with 30 to 40 feet of ancient dirt, sewage, and garbage that has built up to become the modern ground.  City streets in Jerusalem are not at the same level as they were during the time of David or earlier.  And to get to the foundation layers of Solomon’s Temple, you would have to dig deep.  The Second Temple period by Herod was 1000 years later, and many feet under even that period.  Dirt comes in off people’s shoes over time, and it builds up slowly.  And that’s just how old these sites are.  But I’m saying that even with all those considerations, there are tens of thousands more years of history in that area.  So we should be digging a lot more, giving archaeologists a lot more respect and money, and we should be openly prepared for what we learn during the adventure of discovery. 

As to the Islamic claim of the Temple Mount and their abuse of the Jewish people who had the first claim on the land after they conquered it from the pagan worshipping Canaanites, they are just the most recent culture to claim it for themselves.  They won’t let archaeologists dig under and around the Temple Mount to provide proof of the Jewish heritage.  But then they claim that there is no proof of that Jewish heritage because it’s buried under 40 feet of soot because their time on Mount Moriah is so ancient that nearly two thousand years had to pass before Islam became a religion.  The conflict and claims over the territory are entirely based on historical perspective, not a pursuit of the truth that is buried under layers of history on a range of small mountains that have been occupied for tens of thousands of years and of which the proof is in those caves under the Temple Mount.  What we know about Derinkuyu, just to the north in Turkey, is that that underground city was dated to the same period as Solomon’s Temple and even much older in some layers of it.  And, of course, the nearby Gobekli Tepe, dated in the 10,000 BCE range, has the same kind of math technology as the Rujm el-Hiri at the Golon Heights to the south.  So what does all this mean?  Well, Islam doesn’t have a legitimate claim to the area, not where they can demand that their heritage is more important than all this ancient history.  And when they say, show me the proof, they can’t play games by denying dig permits and funding for the truth to be found.  I would say that under the Mount Moriah complex is all the proof anybody needs.  But Islam doesn’t want to know because then it would erode their political claims in the area and destroy their modern aggressions.  Because they don’t want to see the truth.  As many don’t because they are afraid of what they suspect to be the case. Giants ruled the earth and had a technology that was far more sophisticated than what we are achieving in a modern way.  It was a different technology but undoubtedly very sophisticated and global.  Eventually, we must admit to it if we want to advance.

The Book of Giants: Governments’ Relationships with the Disembodied Spirits of Ancient Rebels and Unleashing Terror across the world, perpetually

Here is what bothers me about the many reports about giants around the world, including a recent siting by American special forces who apparently ran into one in a cave in Kandahar in 2002, that was over 13 feet tall cooking food and matches very closely the same kind of giant that was described in the Bible Ishbi-Benob who almost killed King David in 2 Samual 21:16.  This story is a popular conspiracy theory that has made the rounds of scrutiny for a long time, and I think has new life after the governments were caught in the world attempting to cover up the origins of Covid, but failed.  The same techniques were used to cover up this Giant of Kandahar, which I think is an excuse for war in that region to this day.  Not because there is civil strife to worry about but reasons that governments want to prevent proper archaeology and civilian research in those areas.  Keeping things in a state of chaos allows for a political narrative to be controlled.  And when you see how violent the Deep State reaction to President Trump’s work to eliminate all these wars has been, new meaning comes to mind when asking questions about these things.  Which, of course, traces back to the conspiracy of the real cause of the Gulf Wars.  Troops did not go first to military targets when storming Bagdad, but the museum where troops on the ground who were there have said that their mission was to confiscate DNA samples from the Tomb of Gilgamesh.  For those who don’t know, Gilgamesh was a giant from the Anunnaki legends of Mesopotamia, reported to be half God, and spent his life seeking immortality.  Knowing that governments lie to us, start wars for all the wrong reasons, and get caught doing so all the time, these are questions we must answer, especially when we are told that America invaded the indigenous people of North America and took their land and built cities on their Indian Mounds, burial places.  But we aren’t allowed to desecrate their graves with real archaeology because of some George Bush Indian Graves Act because what’s really in those mounds are the giant bones of these same species of very tall people who inhabited the earth many years before the Bible was written.  They are a significant part of a hidden history that governments of the modern world want to avoid talking about for a whole bunch of nefarious reasons. 

I see the whole issue as a problem in the human race that must be fixed before we can become a space-faring society.  I think it’s critical, and I want to see the problem solved so that we can become that kind of society; I want to see the human race step away from the Vico Cycle and become a Type 1 civilization.  But when we have governments who so easily lie and kill to control historical narratives, then what are they going to do when we get into space and learn that much of what has gone on within our tiny planet and all its history is relatively small in comparison?  When we discover that there are planets with stuff on them that we don’t even know about yet and a history that dwarfs our own by millions of years?  We must have a religious and political system that can deal with such things and doesn’t seek to start wars to maintain trouble perpetually and use the power of government to create Frankenstein monsters with the ancient DNA of old giants from old museums.  Or try to destroy religions so that the government can become the new ruling god and keep from people’s minds the truth about their ancient past, which these giant people were such an essential part of. 

One thing that I think is particularly interesting is that even with access to religion and religious text, especially biblical understandings that are so widely read and contemplated, very few people know that there is a Book of Giants that was found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, written by that rebellious society of Essenes in Qumran during the Second Temple Period and certainly helped shape the narrative of what ended up becoming the Bible. The Book of Giants is an apocryphal text and is as essential to studying biblical text as The Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees have been. Jesus Christ would have known about the Book of Giants, which references the ancient Gilgamesh. If you know your history, it must be considered that around 200 rebels from God’s Divine Council conspired against the creations of Yahweh and took human wives to desecrate everything on earth, purposefully and politically. The offspring of this rebellion were human giants, and it all started at Mt Hermon in Israel, well before the flood stories, of which Gilgamesh had his own version. When you start looking at all this information from the perspective of their individualized cultures, a much larger story begins, correlating to the many occurrences of Greek Titans and notions of Hercules. Some of these characters lived for thousands of years, and that giant in Kandahar could have been one of the last of his kind, which is why the military shot and killed him, then took his body away for the same scientific research as was done in Bagdad.

Notice the size of the lion

As the stories go, much of the evil loose in the world now are the disembodied spirits of these dead giants, and they cause all kinds of trouble.  And the more we are told to stay in our lane and obey some worthless government, the more obvious that a cover-up, or a coordination with that disembodied evil, is a source of many of our current problems.  And they’d love to keep everyone away from a means of dealing with it, which points back to the biblical text and the source material discovered at Qumran.  The same scrolls that gave us the books of the Bible also tell the history of these giants and their empire of malice, which was a worldwide problem.  In the West, we have allowed ourselves to be steered recklessly by authority figures.  But as I say and report from my personal experience, I just recently returned from a trip to Japan where the people there are very concerned, all the time, about evil spirits called the Kami that are always causing trouble.  They have shrines dedicated to appeasing those spirits so as not to cause them trouble set up everywhere.  You can literally go out for a night on the town and eat a wonderful Kobe steak then leave in the middle of the city and pray to one of these many shrines burning incense, everywhere, right at the corner of a cosmopolitan community bustling with activity, and nobody thinks it’s strange.  I’ve made the connection more than once between Japan and the empire of Solomon along the Silk Road many years before the birth of Christ.  As logic dictates, it would appear that the elements of our current governments, especially after what they did with Covid, have an arrangement with this vast evil and are working with these disembodied spirits to rule the world once again, and they are attempting to do it right under our noses.  It’s not always what they say you have to worry about, but it’s their actions, and there are enough reports for us to ask the questions.  We need answers before taking on the many mysteries and problems of space travel, where our groundings for faith and understanding will be rattled healthily.  Yet before we can do that, we must understand why we do things on earth and how we can manage the power of controlled government who lie to us and attempt to cover up the truth of our nature so that they can always be in control of us by pretending that that history never happened.  Such is the case of the giants of the earth and their dead spirits, which haunt many to this very day and are working hard to spread an evil rebellion against God and creation for reasons of malice that predate history itself and will likely be confronted in space where it was born, to begin with.

The Indians Were Not Indigenous to North America, Aliens Were: What we have learned about the giants found around the world

It’s not hard to see how it happened; if you understand politics, you know that mass populations are easily controlled by a political system that can capture a narrative, and humans, by nature, are best communicated with through story. So, if you own the story, you control the population, the primary focus of religions, and the politics that have spawned from them since recorded time. But this line of questions for me started in 2009 while at the Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, and I picked up a map that had known burial sites of giants, people of gigantic stature. I thought that was interesting, so I have kept my ears open since then for evidence as it has come in. And as that evidence has been collected, it is pretty evident that in the Ohio River Valley and across the world, just about everywhere, especially in mound-building cultures, are the remains of giant people. That is why there isn’t better archaeology looking into the contents of these mounds, even in China and Japan and all over the Near East, specifically the many mounds of Israel that are essentially of the same construction and design. It came alive for me after visiting Stonehenge that something was strange because I saw the same features that I saw at home in Southern Ohio. And once you learn that the mounds weren’t burial in their orientation as much as they were intended to be celestial clocks, then suddenly things start making a lot more sense, which is the case of a massive earthwork near my home at Fort Hill, in downtown Hamilton, Ohio, and Serpent Mound about an hour and a half to the east.

Knowing what I do now, I am very comfortable calling it; the earth was settled by life from other places in space, likely many different species, and they have probably been interacting with us all along.  But they come and go, and when they arrive on earth to settle or for visits, they need to know when they are.  And that is the purpose of things like Stonehenge, the features at Göbekli Tepe, and even the mysterious Keyhole tombs in Japan.  We are dealing with a culture that lived quite well and vibrantly in what we call the Archaic Period, from the age of Leo and Tauras, and dying out around the age of Aries, only to emerge into what we now call Biblical ancient.  We know that because once you stop trying to look at history through what you find lying around the ground, which decays and erodes rather quickly, and start understanding that you measure activity in celestial time, which is the purpose of inventing the zodiac always was, relevant to stable ground features described, then you start to get the picture.  And the people doing all this were huge, called giants.  And that the Bible refers to as the Nephilim.  Only they were a global culture that understood how to navigate across the oceans, and they did so frequently.  Our assumption that hunters and gatherers rubbed sticks together and migrated across a land bridge into North America during an Ice Age period is, by now, just ridiculous.

But, the world’s politics has wanted us to think of them as gods and to worship them and their time of rule on earth.  So, they have been working to conceal this information behind the mechanisms of institutionalism.  To maintain that story, they have been trying to sell us all on this idea of indigenous people and that America should never have been settled by Christopher Columbus in 1492 because we interrupted the harmony of a nature-loving group of nomads with capitalism.  But that was all a lie; the Indians were not indigenous to North America.  Aliens were.  The Indians were the latest visitors migrating around the earth for thousands of years.  The way things look, we are dealing with at least 400,000 years of human history.  Probably longer.  We only see what hasn’t eroded yet, but there has been a lot of intelligent life on Earth over a long period.  That doesn’t mean there weren’t hunters and gatherers doing their thing, just as we can find such people worldwide today.  There were always homeless people not living within a structured society.  But our assumptions about life and how we arrived where we are, based on abundant evidence, are entirely wrong.  I think today, if we had reasonable archaeology into the many mounds of the world, we would find in them skeletons, like have been found at the Miamisburg Mound just south of Dayton, Ohio, lots of 8- to 10-foot-tall people.  The fact that nobody is seriously studying this matter tells you everything you need to know.  The social narrative of the exploitation of so-called indigenous people is far more valuable to the current political order of global communism than the truth of scientific discovery.  The evidence is so abundant, mainly by private investigations, not science funded by government grants committed to a political narrative, that there is no longer a question. 

I was always weary of this kind of alien settlement thinking until I watched the world’s governments lie to our faces about COVID-19.  We all know that the virus was artificially made in China and released to the public in a way that the world’s governments knew about.  They had even role-played the response, which Bill Gates led the effort.  They were so arrogant about their ability to lie to the public through controlled narratives that they essentially painted themselves in a corner and had to tip-toe through that wet paint to reveal their guilt.  Part of the reason for the arrogance, a big part of it, was their success in manipulating religious and scientific narratives to the public, such as they have gotten away with the indigenous people’s history, arbitrarily picking a habitation date of 1600 AD to 1800 AD, and saying that they were the indigenous people of North America and that all migration was evil so that the greatness of America can be delegitimized to the world and they would clamor for Chinese style communism because of their associated guilt.  People didn’t question the narrative much, which inflated the egos of those who seek to control narratives in the world so they can easily control masses of people.  So now that we know that aliens, or rather, our ancestors, came here from other planets, do we call them the indigenous people?  Or were they the invaders of what was here before?  But we know there was a global civilization that dates back all over the world into times during and even before the last ice age.  And that what was left behind were fragments of their previous cultures that were quite advanced, as we can see in all these ground-based celestial clocks that still have crop circles appearing next to them all the time as if someone were writing notes on the ground to figure out when they were in time and space.  Since time doesn’t move the same everywhere in the solar system, the galaxy, or the universe, which is the giveaway, they were concerned with time and the way we would wear a watch to measure our rotation to the sun.  These very tall people and others needed to know relative to their orientations in space when they arrived on Earth.  Was it 100 years later, or many thousands?  And that is the way we must look at history in the future.  Not in the way we have been.  Or allow governments and institutions to lie to us to control a narrative that benefits them politically when science says otherwise.

Atlantis Giants in Butler County Ohio: The Hilltop Earthwork of the Constellation Aries at Pyramid Hill, from 5000 years ago

I can’t tell you how happy I was to walk into the office at Pyramid Hill as I was asking about the status of the project that has been going on for a few years now and to get the look of concealment that I did. The workers that day were young people who weren’t sure how to answer the question, so they referred me to the Ancient Sculpture Museum, which is concealed deep in the woods down a large hill in a place that feels like it’s not even on this earth. It’s one of those little secrets in Butler County, Ohio, and is a treasure within a treasure. Noticing their cryptic reference, my wife and I proceeded to the museum and stepped into the first room and noticed immediately that finally, since 1836, when the site was first surveyed, finally the Butler County Hilltop Work was getting the attention it has always deserved. I’ve looked at that strange mound, which is around 250 ft tall and sits across from Joe Nuxhall Way on the west side of the Great Miami River, about 3 miles from downtown Hamilton, and always marveled at it. The museum staff already had an excellent display set up for an early 2023 opening that will connect the Pyramid Hill complex to this new massive ancient mound they plan to call the Fortified Hill. Sounds better than Butler County Hilltop Work. The staff person on hand that day told my wife and me that they were planning to open everything in January of 2023 if everything went well, which explained the cryptic looks at the main office when I mentioned it. There are very few people in the world who even know that the strange hill that looms large in Butler County, with thousands and thousands of people living around it, and driving by it every day, that it’s one of the most mysterious lost, ancient works of an advanced culture on earth. And yet, it’s been there before Christ was born as if dated celestially; it’s around 5000 years old. 

What makes it so exceptional in the world is that it essentially is dedicated to the constellation Aries that through stellar precession, shows a specific movement from the constellation Taurus through the Pleiades and into the age of Aries at a time when we have previously thought only of Indians marching in a steady stream toward civilization from hunters and gatherers and into city dwelling humans. I’m not one to disparage scientists, even the bureaucratic nonsense that often trails behind academia like the tail of a doomsday comet, because if not for them, there wouldn’t have been an attempt to preserve the Butler County Hilltop Work and opening it as a park would never have been possible. But science has been slow to acknowledge who these people really were who settled in Ohio as the center of a very advanced culture, who had an obsession with the stars and built all over southwestern Ohio many copies of earthworks that mimicked the constellations in the heavens on earth. These works are every bit as mysterious as the Nazca lines from Peru or even the Pyramids of Giza. Primarily, the reason for the big mystery is that they didn’t just build one of these sites that so accurately reflects an advanced knowledge of astrology. Still, the evidence is pointing increasingly to this same region, and that specific mound location, along with Serpent Mound off to the east, as the basket of an advanced culture that was eradicated likely during the Younger Dryas cataclysm, around 11,600 years ago. And what was left of these people who were interacting globally with all countries before the cataclysm is what we see during this late archaic presence in the Ohio Valley, which ended up a larger part of the Mississippi culture. These were the survivors of that cataclysm, and they marked the ground with a star map of the heavens with these massive depictions of, in this case, a wild boar, which they associated with the Aries constellation. 

Further, on top of the hill is where things get really interesting because the entrance to the effigy, to the north, has a maze that forces the participant to navigate it much the way that the spring equinox had to navigate the Pleiades constellation on its journey from the constellation Taurus into Aries. While on top of the earthwork, which you can see for miles in every direction, it becomes very obvious how difficult it was to shape that natural hill into the shape of a boar to match their celestial observations of the zodiac character of Aries. This was no small effort by any means. It was a massive undertaking, and for what purpose? Well, as I say a lot, remember Plato’s references to Atlantis, where the first god/king of their land was Atlas. And we all know from myth and mystery that Atlas was the creator of Astrology. And here was an obviously advanced culture that had enough leisure time not just to hunt, gather, and reproduce but to build all these magnificent earthworks all over Ohio. They seemed to connect into one grand mythology meant to be seen from the sky. A society obsessed with astrology, obsessed with an equatorial procession along the heavenly zodiacal belt where ages move by overhead every 2,160 years for a total zodiac year of 25,920 years. Society would have to be around for a long time to understand those kinds of time movements of the stars in a reliable way, to understand that their movements were not just coincidental, but over that length of time, were as reliable as a clock. These people did not spend their entire day trying to hunt a deer so they could eat by dinner time.  We have all had an image given to us by Hollywood and the progressive history of what an Indian is, a Native American or even an “indigenous person.” In truth, the reality is far more complicated, and by referencing the many books on Atlantis by Lewis Spence, a respected commentator on such things, or Giambittisto Vico of the great Vico Cycle, or the Bible, we know that very large people that smaller people called giants roamed the earth everywhere. We know Norse mythology had them, the Greeks called them Titans, the Bible referenced to them often living in the land of Canaan, and large people were everywhere dating back to the precise period of the earthworks in Ohio, precisely the one in Butler County formerly known as the Butler County Hilltop Works. Burial mounds all up and down the Great Miami River have reported the bones of people from 7 feet tall up to 10 feet many times, which can be found in Ross Hamilton’s outstanding academic paper called A Tradition of Giants: The Elite Social Hierarchy of American Prehistory which is available for free online. Just look up that title and print it out for yourself. It’s well researched and corresponds to the reports mentioned above about large people buried in the earthworks of Ohio, not just occasionally, but abundantly. I know of a case of a 7-foot person buried in a mound in downtown Hamilton as it was being built. It has been said in many of Spence’s reports on Atlantis that they were a large people and that once the Greeks and Egyptians inherited many of the myths of the lost Atlantis, their concept of the gods was forged in their cultures. Yet, those myths also talk of the Atlanteans coming from the west, and with them, they brought the pagan gods of astrology. There are mounds on the Butler County Hilltop Work site, just off from the top. In them, indeed, just as there is in the Middletown Mound up the river a few miles, then again at Miamisburg, even a few miles more up the same river, there are giant skeletons in them, and science has had a tough time dealing with the knowledge. Because it doesn’t fit our perceptions of who lived in America before America was what it is today. Instead, it looks like those who did live here moved all over the earth and took with them a massive religion of astrology to the far corners of the planet. And they did so long before Europeans were even thinking about building boats. And the natives of America that we call them today were likely global citizens 10,000 years ago, and the proof of their culture is there looming over Butler County like a ghost that is no longer invisible to the casual spectator, thanks to the great scientists and volunteer efforts to open it to the public with a great spectacle finally.

Rick Santorum was Correct: Indians deserved to lose in the context of history

America was correct to fight and beat the Indians

I have nothing at all against Indians.  There are many admirable traits that they have that speak well of them as a culture.  Yet my thoughts about them in the scheme of Westward Expansion is that they lost the war.  And they deserved to.  I can’t agree with the modern interpretation of these events.  Like 9.999999% out of ten, most people do not know history enough to have an opinion, and that includes the professionals who teach at our universities.  I have a unique relationship with history, and I can say that Rick Santorum was right about his comments in April of 2021 when he said that “there isn’t much Native American culture in American culture.” He has since walked back those comments due to intense pressure by the progressive elements of our society. They have made Native American worship just another political strategy to undo America as a country. Like their attempts to paint slavery as an excuse, North America should have never gone independent and, for unwarranted reasons, sought to destroy our Western culture with great effort using Indians as an excuse.  Yet some profound things happened that fully justify Westward Expansion and America’s founding as the correct and moral necessity that it was. The world of politics is entirely wrong in its approach.  For instance, if not for the real Pirates of the Caribbean, slaves today would have never been freed.  It took the pirates of the time to invent the concept of freedom in the world, and as pirates raided merchant vessels from England, France, and Spain, they freed black men being stolen from Africa whenever they could.  A democratic process was then created for the first time in human history that was directly learned by our Founding Fathers a century later.  That effort then translated to America’s Westward Expansion, which destroyed the culture of the Indians.  For the name of freedom, they deserved to lose. It should be celebrated, not regretted, for all the same reasons that it was Republicans who freed men and women of color upon studying the pirate movement.  The quest for humans to free themselves from an ominous past of king worship and imposition of radical religious movements which hindered the human mind for thousands of years was necessary.

You must know who did what to whom regarding slavery or the conquest of “Native Americans.” The desire for freedom from cultures of oppression, which England, France, and Spain were in the world of that time, before them, it was the Chinese coming straight out of the Ming Dynasty where they roamed the earth in their giant treasure ships procreating with cultures everywhere. At the same time, they spread the wealth of China liberally.  You likely didn’t hear about all this because they certainly don’t teach any about it in school. Still, there was trade going on globally between various cultures going back before Christ. As Spain was building little ships to send Christopher Columbus across the ocean to look for new trade routes to India, the Chinese for many centuries prior had floating cities bigger than anything previously seen on earth.  Their goal was to promote the might of China.  What we know about the modern Indian was directly attached to this effort.  Many Indian tribes were created globally and were hardly native to the continent from its inception.  The idea of diffusion from hunters and gathers coming down from the Bering Strait and settling the North American mainland first is preposterous.  Before known history, even a few thousand years before Christ in the Middle East, Phoenicians show evidence of trading in North America looking for vast copper mines in the Great Lakes region.  

I say all this for context because people upset with Santorum’s comments about Indians have pointed out the great societies of the Aztec and the people of Cahokia.  The massive pyramids just outside of St. Louis are just off the highway there as millions of people drive by every day and do not notice them at all.  Yet that is evidence of the extraordinary sophistication of global cultures trading all over the world.  That is the same kind of story as the Mound Builders of the Ohio and Mississippi Valleys.  We know now that these people were very large, some as big as 8 feet and 9 feet tall.  We call them giants now who came from the culture that built Stonehenge and were mixed with red-haired Vikings and migrants from Germany and perhaps even Egypt again well before Christ was born in a manger.  Lazy scientists who work in the Marxist university system over the very young fields of archaeology and anthropology are just beginning to scratch the surface of any global natural history.  There is so much that isn’t known. It has been way too soon to judge any culture anywhere regarding slavery, native status, and the like.  There is yet so much to learn.  They typically associate mound-building cultures as Adena and Hopewell Indians, but nobody knows.  With all the research that we have done, nobody knows anything about the Cahokia people who built those massive pyramids right in the middle of North America. It was all along a known trade route of the Mississippi River to the rest of the world, the pre-Mayan people, people in South America, and Africa, and beyond.  It is agreed that Cahokia supported a cityscape larger than London at the time. 

The Lakota, the Sioux, the Shawnee were not ancient cultures who built all these North American relics but were primitive offshoots of sophisticated societies that fell apart under the standard Vico Cycle.  I always talk about the Vico Cycle and people who turn back to the primitive under a necessity for the ambitious to rule over the lazy who are glad to follow.  So they became warring factions of hunter and gatherer tribes which is what met the first Americans.  The Five Nations of the Iroquois were not ever going to form a great government and shape the nature of human civilization. They had a chance, and they blew it long before Americans ever arrived to create a great republic.  Interpreters of history have it all wrong and did from the beginning turning the entire analysis into a political weapon instead of fact.  And when the two cultures met, the Indians were beaten as they should have been.  Their deep past was relatively shallow, and they felt the human need to be free of rule over tribal leaders and bloodthirsty kings.  Of course, the pirates were made out to be terrible.  Look at who interpreted history, the English, the Spanish, and the French, who were destroying the cultures at the time in South, Central, and North America for gold.  But Americans evolved and fought them all off, and freed the slaves, and stopped the long history of tyranny in the world for the first time. The Indians as we knew them were run over by the process, but that had been going on for many centuries, and if it hadn’t been Westward Expansion, it would have been themselves.  They would have destroyed each other as they were known to do.  Indians weren’t peace-loving victims. They indeed weren’t the ideal utopia of Sir Thomas More and other liberal contemplators of the human condition.  They were savages and muts from the world after tens of thousands of years of migration and global trade set to fail as all cultures typically do.  And in that regard, Rick Santorum should have never walked back his comments—because he was and remains correct.
