In this episode we cover the mounds of North America and the mythology and oral traditions of Native Americans, as well as confirmed accounts of findings of large skeletons by the Smithsonian. We also discuss the differences between normal humans with "gigantism" vs large human skeletons that show no signs of such a "disorder".

Martin takes us through more of his research into alignments of the megalithic structures in the UK, demonstrating that some of these monuments may be aligned with each other across vast distances, implying that there could have been an overall plan for all of them, rather than simple random placement. We also look at some alignments of sites with the word "Devil" in the name, and how those may be correlated with churches named after St. Michael.   Thanks to Troy for the excellent episode art!
