The story of giants in the Indigenous prehistory of the Americas

Covers the secret history of an ancient race of giants that inhabited the Americas long before European contact

Presents accounts of these beings from Native American sources, legends, and oral traditions, correlated with archeological reports

Examines the Smithsonians role in covering up records of the skeletal remains of giants in the Americas, looking particularly at John Wesley Powell and Ale Hrdlika

Writer and researcher Ross Hamilton uses Indigenous voices, beliefs, and oral traditions to reconstruct the origin and secret history of an ancient race of giants that inhabited the continent long before European contact with the Americas.

Hamilton reaches deep into North American antiquity to identify a people originally from the Arctic known as the Tall Ones. These beings lived alongside the tribes of the Americas and even bred with them. As he uncovers the story, Hamilton presents the ancient Turtle Island culture of the nation of Manitouba, a once-great civilization that stretched across much of the contemporary United States and Canada and maintained an advanced system of arts and sciences before being called back to the mysterious North.

Along with examining the ways in which archaeological history was suppressed by premier American institutions such as Harvard and the Smithsonian, Hamilton revisits critical primary sources, including the Lenape accounts made by early American missionary John Heckewelder. With this research and the contributions of tribal elder Vine Deloria Jr., Hamilton unpacks long-misunderstood Indigenous myths and history to reveal a time when Earth met sky and men walked with gods.

Arvustused

Ross Hamiltons latest book is an extraordinary journey into the deep past of North America. He explores rare primary sources that describe a highly advanced race of giants, the mysterious Adena people of Turtle Island in the region of Manitouba. In spite of the destruction of many valuable remains of this culture in ancient mounds excavated by the Smithsonian, Hamilton, assisted by Native people, salvaged enough evidence to propose that this culture flourished 7,000 to 8,000 years ago, with their ancestors extending as far back as 40,000 years ago. This delightful book beamed sparkling light on legends my Cherokee grandfather shared with me when I was a child growing up in the Great Lakes region. This book is a must-read for every person seeking authentic Native American history. * Barbara Hand Clow, author of Alchemy of Nine Dimensions and Awakening the Planetary Mind *
