Stanford University, California – Recent excavations indicate that the peninsula south of San Francisco once was inhabited by a race of giant stature. Prof. Harold Heath of the zoologic department of Stanford University has unearthed, about two miles south of here, several skeletons of men who were more than six feet in height.
A prehistoric village, covering nearly two acres, has been the scene of Professor Heath’s investigations. Stone hammers, bone awls, and ornaments found by his party indicate that their owners had attained considerable advancement in artisanship and civilization.
Numerous buried villages have been discovered on the peninsula, several within the city limits of San Francisco. Professor Heath says the inhabitants apparently were neither warlike nor energetic.
