The Cemetery Of The Giants
"There were giants in the earth in those days..." Gen 6:4
It seems that mankind has questioned the reality of the existence of giants at least since giants were mentioned in Genesis.Nearly every place around the world has legends of giants dwelling in the land. Greek and Roman mythology mentions the Titans and Norse mythology contains stories of the Frost giants of Jötunheim.
Well known first-century Jewish historian Flavius Josephus wrote about the history of the Jewish War in 79 AD and spoke of giants:"There were giants. Much larger and shaped differently than normal people. Terrible to behold!"
Many of these stories are not limited to the ancient past but are also part of our more recent history.When Abraham Lincoln made his first visit to Niagara Falls in 1848, he wrote of giants in his notes:When Columbus first sought this continent - when Christ suffered on the cross - when Moses led Israel through the Red Sea - nay, even when Adam first came from the land of his Maker - then as now, Niagara was roaring here. The eyes of that species of extinct giants, whose bones fill the mounds of America, have gazed on Niagara..."
In his autobiography, "Buffalo" Bill Cody wrote the following words about a legend recounted to him by members of the Sioux tribe.It was taught by the wise men of this tribe that the earth was originally peopled by giants, who were fully three times the size of modern men. They were so swift and powerful that they could run alongside a buffalo, take the animal under one arm, and tear off a leg, and eat it as they ran. So vainglorious were they because of their own size and strength that they denied the existence of a Creator. When it lighted, they proclaimed their superiority to the lightning; when it thundered, they laughed.
This displeased the Great Spirit, and to rebuke their arrogance he sent a great rain upon the earth. The valleys filled with water, and the giants retreated to the hills. The water crept up the hills, and the giants sought safety on the highest mountains. Still the rain continued, the waters rose, and the giants, having no other refuge, were drowned.It is interesting that much of giant lore includes descriptions of a flood sent by God (or the gods) to destroy these wicked people. Could it be that while the Bible contains the true history of our past, these groups are simply repeating their own distorted versions of world history prior to and perhaps after the dispersion at Babel?
Many such stories contain exaggerations but is it reasonable to automatically reject every one of these traditions, or, like most legends, is there possibly some truth behind the them, as is often the case?
The Biblical support for the existence of giants is overwhelming although many details as to their nature and number are still debated. What is perhaps more controversial today is the quest to find giants remains.Many claims of giant skeletons have been made over the past few centuries, especially in the nineteenth century.One such place can be found in Ecuador known as the "The Cemetery of the Giants".
Father Carlos Vaca was a priest in Ecuador in 1964 when villagers contacted him to examine some strange bones that had been found. The bones were eventually taken to Austria for further analysis and would be featured in an exhibit, Unsolved Mysteries.The bones were deemed to be human and samples contained a complete shinbone. Whoever belonged to the skeleton stood at a whopping 7.6 meters tall (25 feet). The site of the skeletal discoveries was named Cemetery of the Giants by the locals.
Almost fifty years later, a 2012 exploration team discovered an ancient pyramid network in the Ecuadorian-Amazon jungle, a site unknown to anyone, including the locals. Author Bruce Fenton, also a researcher, believes the site is the Lost City of the Giants because of local legends of giants who once lived in the region and the giant tools found in the area.An internet search of giant skeletons will prove futile because of the photo shopping over the years. Apparently some jokesters are determined to mock the many Biblical references to giants, because they deem the stories as mythology. However, discoveries continue.Below the surface of Death Valley, a 1931 discovery unearthed human skeletons approximately nine feet tall.
A January 2015 discovery in Bulgaria at the site of the ancient Greek city Odessos came as no surprise to some of the locals. There was a 6,000-year history full of stories about giants. The accidental discovery of a skeleton described as "very tall" and "impressive" offered validity to the legends.Giant footprints have been discovered all over the world. "Goliath's Footprint" in South Africa measures 4-feet. A 1926 edition of The Oakland Tribune reported 5-foot long footprints on a cliff in San Jose, California.Christian researcher L.A. Marzulli has been at the forefront of leading the charge to explore such claims around the world and believes there is startling evidence to suggest that there has been a massive cover up of what he believes are the remains of giants.

Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:11
Section 1
The Old Testament
- 1.Semiramis
- 8.The Mystery Babylon Religion
As we’ve already noted, the religion created in Babylon by Nimrod and Semiramis is known as the Mystery Religion or
simply The Mysteries. At its core, itwas an inverted re-telling of the fall of man in Genesis.
In the Biblical account of the incident, the serpent caused Adam and Eve to sin
against God by suggesting they eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge. Because they acted in disobedience to God who had specifically told them not to eat from that tree, sin entered into the human race and all the misery, disease and tragedy that makes up human history stems from that moment.
In the Babylonian inversion of this event however, the serpent is portrayed as the real good god. He was worshipped for opening the eyes of men and for infusing the woman with his passion and lust. He was seen as a liberator and an enlightener. To them, he illuminated the minds of mankind by revealing to them the secret knowledge that God had tried to keep from them. Look again at the All Seeing Eye. Notice that it has rays of light emanating from it. This represents the illuminating secret knowledge that he claims to offer. The secret serpent knowledge that could provide mankind with their own salvation and which would see them become gods. That is why the religion is called the Mysteries - Because it claims to harbour this secret knowledge that was offered to Adam and Even in the Garden of Eden. In the Mysteries, the true God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Yahweh, was portrayed as a wrathful Deity of hate, who was guilty of opposing freedom of choice.
ASTROLOGY and HOROSCOPES
Because Nimrod and Semiramis set themselves up as the sun and moon gods, the religion also made use of a corruption of primeval astronomy. It was believed by Noah’s righteous ancestors that the stars told the story of Satan’s rebellion against God in heaven, his fall, subversion of mankind, the promise of a Messiah who would suffer and die to lift the curse of sin and then be installed as Lord of creation and conqueror of Satan. These stories were widely known amongst the people of the time.
Semiramis however, again inverted the story and so in the Mysteries the stars of the sky told a different story. In the Babylonian version, Satan was depicted as the rightful lord of the universe, whose throne has only been temporarily usurped by God. One day an anti-Christ, a seed of the serpent, would be born of a divine mother, would become god himself, replace God and return rulership of the world to the serpent. Semiramis claimed that this was the real hidden truth concealed within the stories. This corrupt and satanic version is the origin of astrology, which still exists virtually unchanged today.
The Babylonians didn’t just believe the stars told the story of the universe.They believed you could divine the future of individuals through them as well. If the stars told the stories of things that had passed they could also tell the stories of things to come. They would therefore divide the sky into sections and give meanings to each section on the basis of the stars that are found there. According to the theory, a person's destiny is said to be determined by whatever section or "sign" he is born under. This is the origin of horoscopes.
In times to come, astrology would pass to the empire of ancient Egypt, which is the location we most associate with pyramids today. The ‘sacred mountain’ pyramids were constructed with certain mathematical relationships to the stars. By the time Moses led the Jews out of Egypt in Exodus, astrology had also infected the population in Canaan which was the land that they were headed towards. Hence, some of the strictest warnings in the Bible against astrology date from this period (Lev. 19:31; Deut. 18).
The Biblical denunciations of astrology identify the practice with demonism or Satanism in the sense that Satan and his hosts were actually being worshiped in the guise of the signs, planets and stars. And as mentioned previously, the leading lights of the sky – sun and moon – were worshipped in the form of Nimrod and Semiramis.
Very significantly, a third leading light was identified in the sky that was 23 times more luminous than the sun and therefore was considered to be the most important star in the sky. It is known as the “dog star”, “Sirius”, or “The morning star” because it is still visible even in the morning light. Remember in Isaiah 14:12 Lucifer is referred to as the morning star. When allied with the sun and moon, the dog star completes an unholy trinity of lights personified in Satan, Nimrod and Semiramis.
