Gigantic Jawbones from the Channel Islands
Two very different races waged war on the Channel Islands. One was a race of giants whose jawbones were so large they could slip over a full-grown man’s head. One of the skeletons was of a gigantic individual in which a long bone spear point was sticking out of his leg bone. His skull was shattered by a large round stone used as a war-weapon. A spear had passed through his heart dealing a death blow, it was thrown so hard it pierced through his shoulder blade. This account comes from a Mr. Long-fellow says the San Fransisco Chronicle.
The archeological establishment found a treasure trove of artifacts: skeletons (9 entire while hundreds had been burned), 87 skulls, weapons and instruments, there were ornaments and jewelry made of shell and stone on San Nicholas Island which is about 65 miles on and island off the coast of Santa Barbara, California.

thank you for posting this. i ran across this article on another site some years ago and never bookmarked it… finally i found it on your site. it is fascinating.
one more thing: preceding my finding the original article, i had this amazing dream about finding myself arriving on one of the channel islands and being greeted by ‘mayanesque’ type native/ancient guide who showed us around the island. it was as if we had stepped into another time yet we were still modern. and there was a very beautiful small settlement/kingdom where we met the leader and we had a meal, etc.
i thought the dream was too amazing, but only months later i found this article as well as learning more about the history of the islands. that dream was so cool and so real! i have also found a few shell pieces with perfect circular holes in them (like what chumash/coast indians used to use in trade). i imagine they are simply from the coastal natives…but i like to think they possibly came from the islands anyway, from those even more ancient ones : )
thanks again.
