Giants in the Ancient World
Claims that a race of giants existed in antiquity, based on myth, anomalous skeletons and megalithic construction.
Giant humanoids existed in the ancient world and may have built megalithic structures.
Myths of giants appear across cultures. Reports of large skeletons from 19th-century excavations are cited, along with the scale of some megaliths.
No verified giant hominid skeletons exist in the archaeological record. Historical reports have been traced to hoaxes, misidentification or pathological conditions like gigantism.
The absence of any verified giant remains in museums or collections is a major problem for the claim.
Myths of giants may reflect encounters with large animals, tall individuals or cultural memory, but no giant race is evidenced.
