Giant skeletons

There are findings, which for reasons not entirely clear, are stored in oblivion of human knowledge. 
Still, it's findings that may shed light on the distant past of humanity, yet so shrouded in mist and with many contradictions timelines. 
We have already spoken of the giants in a previous article [Read article], but the story we tell you it seems to add an important element to the theory of those who believe that, in a remote time, a race of giant men have inhabited the planet Earth. It 's the story of the eighteen giant skeletons of Wisconsin. 
It is a curious story which took place about a century ago, a story that on the one hand confirm the existence of giants and, second, that would erode the feeling of many, according to which there would forbidden archeology discoveries uncomfortable in which to store which might reveal to mankind the true story of its evolution. 
In May 1912, a team of archaeologists of Beloit College, in an excavation made ​​at Lake Delavan in Wisconsin, brought to light more than two hundred effigy mounds that were regarded as a classic example of the Woodland culture, a culture which is believed prehistoric American goes back to the first millennium BC 
But what surprised the researchers was the discovery of eighteen skeletons from the huge size and the elongated skulls, discovered that it did not fit at all with the classical notions contained in textbooks. The skeletons were really huge and, although they had human features, they could not belong to normal human beings. 
The news had a great echo and made quite a stir, so much so that the New York Times reported the news in its pages. Perhaps, in those days, there was more freedom and less fear than the discoveries that could change the well-established scientific beliefs based only on theories. So writes the columnist of the New York Times article published May 4, 1912 [View original article] 
"The discovery of some human skeletons during the excavation of a hill at Lake Delevan indicates that a hitherto unknown race of men once lived in the Southern Wisconsin. [...]. The heads, presumably by men for men, are much larger than those of Americans today. 
The skull appears to stretch back immediately above the eye sockets and the nasal bones protrude well above the cheekbones. The jaws appear to be long and pointed [...]. "
The description of the skulls provided by the New York Times, is very reminiscent of the shape of those belonging to the skeletons recently discovered in an ancient tomb in Mexico, with the difference that here we are dealing with individuals taller than three meters. Who were they, and why there is no trace in the official history we were taught in school? 

150 years of discoveries 
As incredible, the skeletons of the giants of Lake Delevan were not a novelty in American archeology. Digging in the sidebars of the local papers, it appears that the finding of Wisconsin is just one of dozens of similar findings reported by the local newspapers. The first news archive dates back to 1856, reported in an article dated November 21 of the same New York Times [View original article] 
"A couple of days ago, some workers have discovered in the basement of the sheriff Wickan vineyard in East Wheeling, Ohio, a human skeleton. Somewhat ruined, it was difficult to identify the position of the bones, which do not seem to have the length of the normal human body in its original position. What has impressed the sheriff and the workers have been the size of the skeleton, amounting to about eleven feet (three meters and a half)! His jaw and the teeth are almost as large as those of a horse.
12 years later, in 1868, on Christmas Day, it is always the NYT to give another news giants [View original article]. Some company workers Sank Rapid Water Power were engaged in excavations for the construction of a dam for the creation of hydroelectric power along the Mississippi River. During the work, the workers have unearthed the remains of a human skeleton embedded in gigantic granite rock: 
"The grave was about six feet long, four feet wide and three feet deep. The remains of the giant man are completely petrified. The head measures a huge circumference of 78 inches, but with a very low brow and steeply inclined backwards. The stature of this mysterious individual is equal to about three meters and forty centimeters. "

On 8 September 1871, the NYT reports the news from other giant skeletons unearthed during excavation work in Petersburg, Virginia [View original article] 
"The workers engaged in the work of the railroad, they ran into a tomb containing the skeletons of those who are thought to be Native Americans of a bygone age and a lost and forgotten human race. The bodies examined have trained very strange and impressive. [...]. The femur is much longer than that of normal human individuals, so as to assume a height of almost three meters. "

On 10 August 1880, the NYT says an article reported dall'Harrisburg Telegraph, in which he shows the excerpt of a report prepared May 24, 1798 by Judge Atlee following a strange discovery [View original article] 
"In the company's chief prosecutor McKean, of Judge Bryan, Mr. Burd and other respectable gentlemen, we went to the property of Mr. Neese, where we were shown the place near his home where several years ago were discovered two human skeletons. The skeletons are about three feet and a half. "

On May 25, 1882, NYT reports the news of a discovery at St. Paul, Minnesota [View original article] 
"A skeleton of heroic dimensions and the singular form was discovered during the excavation of a hill at the Red River Valley. [....]. The skeleton in question was in a perfect state of preservation. The man was identified as "giant." An investigation of the excavation and its contents was initiated by the Historical Society. "

On 20 December 1897, the NYT reports the first discovery of giants took place in Wisconsin, near Maple Creek. Were discovered three hills funeral, one of which was open, revealing its mysterious contents: the skeleton of a giant man. The stature of the being was almost three meters, and its almost perfect state of preservation [View original article].

The February 11, 1902, shows the news of an archaeological expedition at a site in New Mexico, where they were found some human skeletons giant [See original article] 
"After the discovery of the remains of a race of giants in Guadalupe, New Mexico, archaeologists are preparing for an expedition to the region [...]. Luciana Quintana, the owner of the ranch where are located the ancient bones, discovered two stones with some curious inscriptions. Digging below them, were discovered the bones of skeletons belonging to individuals no less than three meters high and sixty [...]. 
Quintana, who has also discovered many other similar sites, believes that the skeletons buried in a lost race of giants are thousands. The assumption is based on a tradition that began with the early Spanish invasions, according to which an ancient race of giants once lived in the remote region now known as eastern New Mexico. The legends of the American Indians tell the same tradition. "
But the New York Times is not the only newspaper to deal with the giants. Some newspapers reported news of the century giants like Sun, 1893, New Age Magazine in 1913, Popular Science in 1932, the San Antonio Express 1940.
James Vieira, an independent researcher, for almost twenty years, and before the advent of the internet, has collected thousands of journalistic references on the findings of the giants, digging in the archives of the New York Times, Smithsonian Ethnology Reports, American Antiquarian, and Scientific American, discovering that most of these findings is practically hidden from the general public. 
Among the notable discoveries of Vieira, there is a photo unearthed in the archives of the Smithsonian Ethnology Reports, taken during a lecture by prof. McGee (pictured left), in which we see a skeleton of the giant stature of about two meters tall, then sold to the Smithsonian Institution for the sum of $ 500. 
The skeleton would belong to the so-called culture of Mounds Builders (literally mound builders), an ancient people of North America lived about 5000 years ago, in an earlier period in the history of Ancient Egypt and all its dynasties.
According to the conspiracy theorists, the Smithsonian Institution purchase the skeleton with the intention of avoiding the knowledge of the public. But why? Why should there be a massive cover-up of all these discoveries? And why no museum in the world have never been exposed to these exciting, as enigmatic artifacts? 
According to Vieira, the reasoning is very simple: the need to maintain a valid Darwin's Theory of Evolution, which explains very well the normal evolution of all living beings, including humans, from simple forms to more complex forms.
