Throughout history, whispers of giants have echoed through myth, scripture, and buried stone.
But what if those whispers were more than legend?
In Giants of the Old World, Dr. Erik Gray uncovers forgotten evidence pointing to a lost race of colossal beings once known across the ancient world. From over sized skeletons and unexplained megalithic architecture to suppressed excavation reports and enduring oral traditions, this book brings together clues from every corner of the earth.
Drawing on archaeology, historical accounts, and comparative mythology, Dr. Gray traces the recurring presence of giants in the traditions of Sumer, North America, the Andes, the Levant, and beyond. Why were so many megalithic structures built on a scale that challenges modern engineering? Why do indigenous legends across continents speak of great wars between humans and towering beings?
Giants of the Old World is not fantasy—it’s a bold, evidence-based reexamination of history. Challenging the boundaries of mainstream archaeology, this book argues that the overwhelming body of testimony and physical evidence deserves to be considered.
From the pyramids of Africa to vast underground chambers, lost canals, towering cathedrals, and forgotten monuments scattered across continents, Dr. Gray explores the possibility that the story of giants—the one told in humanity’s most enduring myths—may be more fact than fiction.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Across the ancient world, humanity remembered giants. From the earliest civilizations to traditions preserved across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, extraordinary beings appear again and again at the edges of the remembered past. They rule kingdoms, fight wars, raise monuments, possess older knowledge, and inhabit lands before the peoples who later claim them. They stand at the boundary between one age and another. But what, exactly, does this extraordinary record preserve In Giants of the Old World, Dr. Erik Gray undertakes a sweeping investigation of the surviving evidence, following the record from ancient tradition into historical testimony, extraordinary bodies, burials, and monumental stone. The evidence does not produce one simple answer. What emerges is more compelling. Again and again, humanity remembered the earlier world as different from its own: larger, stronger, older, more dangerous, more knowledgeable, and capable of works that survived long after their makers were forgotten.Giants of the Old World follows that record wherever the evidence leads-through myth and history, bodies and bones, kingdoms and catastrophes, monuments and memory-to ask one of the oldest questions preserved in the human past: Who were the giants.
