The Ancient Giants Who Ruled America

The Missing Skeletons and the Great Smithsonian Cover-Up

De: Richard J. Dewhurst

Narrado por: Nick McDougal

A study of the substantial evidence for a former race of giants in North America and its 150-year suppression by the Smithsonian Institution

• Shows how thousands of giant skeletons have been found, particularly in the Mississippi Valley, as well as the ruins of the giants’ cities

• Explores 400 years of giant finds, including newspaper articles, first person accounts, state historical records, and illustrated field reports

• Reveals the Stonehenge-era megalithic burial complex on Catalina Island with over 4,000 giant skeletons, including kings more than 9 feet tall

• Includes more than 100 rare photographs and illustrations of the lost evidence

Drawing on 400 years of newspaper articles and photos, first person accounts, state historical records, and illustrated field reports, Richard J. Dewhurst reveals not only that North America was once ruled by an advanced race of giants but also that the Smithsonian has been actively suppressing the physical evidence for nearly 150 years. He shows how thousands of giant skeletons have been unearthed at Mound Builder sites across the continent, only to disappear from the historical record. He examines other concealed giant discoveries, such as the giant mummies found in Spirit Cave, Nevada, wrapped in fine textiles and dating to 8000 BCE; the hundreds of red-haired bog mummies found at sinkhole “cenotes” on the west coast of Florida and dating to 7500 BCE; and the ruins of the giants’ cities with populations in excess of 100,000 in Arizona, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Louisiana.

Dewhurst shows how this suppression began shortly after the Civil War and transformed into an outright cover-up in 1879 when Major John Wesley Powell was appointed Smithsonian director, launching a strict pro-evolution, pro-Manifest Destiny agenda. He also reveals the 1920s’ discovery on Catalina Island of a megalithic burial complex with 6,000 years of continuous burials and over 4,000 skeletons, including a succession of kings and queens, some more than 9 feet tall--the evidence for which is hidden in the restricted-access evidence rooms at the Smithsonian.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“This is the most comprehensive and level approach to the subject of giant humanoids in Earth’s past to have ever been published. The most appealing aspect is that Dewhurst has collected a vast array of primary sources and presents them here. Reading one newspaper discovery after another of giant skeletons and artifacts is perhaps the most compelling reason to question the standard lines we are given about humanity’s origins. When coupled with his persuasive theories explaining why the Smithsonian would actively cover up such discoveries, you have one valuable and entertaining read! Highly recommended.”

“Giants in ancient America? You bet! It’s all here in Richard Dewhurst’s fabulous book. Extensively illustrated and chronicled with firsthand accounts from early 19th- and 20th-century news clippings, this book will shatter the mainstream academic teachings that continue to ignore and cover up the role giants played in early American history.”

“At last, a comprehensive sourcebook that demystifies the giants of ancient America. Lavishly illustrated, this goliath and gutsy book delivers an unprecedented wealth of information on the great mound builders. Dewhurst digs deeper than the rest. Don’t miss it.”

“I don’t say this lightly, but of all the nonfiction books I have on my precious shelf space, this book actually has its own little stand so I can gaze at it. I’ve highlighted nearly every page and dog-earred many and hope to use these references in future hypotheses I will present about this amazing and unexplainable race of giants. Thank you, Dewhurst, for such an amazing and laboriously loving research into what I consider one of the single most important anthropological puzzles man has ever tackled.”

“The Ancient Giants who Ruled America is a treasure trove for alternative history and archaeology buffs…This book was an eye-opener, both in its subject matter and also the amount of reporting that Mr. Dewhurst was able to hunt down, covering nearly 400 years.”

Information!

The covering up of this historical proof that the giants existed is diabolical. Mr. Dewhurst lays out the facts in article after article and proving that we have had the truth systematically concealed from us for 150+ years.

Interesting but racists.

If you can handle the subtle and not so subtle racism throughout the book it’s pretty interesting. The research, actual science and history discussed in the book is well researched and fascinating. The way the author talks about native non white Americans is gross and hard to get through. The performance leaves much to be desired and feels a bit flat and droning. Perhaps a book better read on paper so you can skip the racist bits and put your own voice to it.

A must

I really be human mind is getting smaller in evidence of the word smaller. The worst of the worst in human mind are leAding the loud nations to human failure. Because they are rich? Yes.
We could leArn A lot from our last people. Everything on earth was giant to us todat. Was the Earth in a different orbit with less gravity therefore humans also large to exziezt? Y

Rough listen but good information

I loved the volume of information and written documents covered in this book. The reader had an extremely calming voice, tone, and rhythm that put me to sleep many nights traveling. The downside was the volume of articles being read and multiple accounts of the same discoveries. All and all you must really be interested in giants to complete and stay awake.

Great info

Narration was ok. Perhaps some review on the pronunciation of sepulchre. Otherwise good for conveying information.

Giants

7,8 or 9 ft that's nothing now 15ft to 20ft or more Wow.Did you talk about the giants that are supposed to be over 100ft tall!

Great read.

Just an accshow read well said the narrator as perfect the story is perfect thank you

great story, only a few mispronunciations

Loved this book, am probably going to pick up a paper copy to review! had to laugh at a few pronunciations, however.
I'd never thought to pronounce Patroclus like icicles, ha! 😂

Endless presentation of evidence for giants

The overwhelming amount of evidence pointing to giants and other peculiarities of American prehistory is incredible.

mixed review

The subject matter is fascinating, with my only problem with this audio book being that the narrator reads so slowly.
