Stories of giants being involved in the construction of megalithic sites have been alive the in consciousness of the British for millennia. Five hundred years after Geoffrey's Histories, and two hundred years after the Salisbury Giant began being paraded in Wiltshire, Rev. Robert Gay authored A Fool's Bolt Soon Shot at Stonehenge (1666), about a ferocious prehistoric culture of giant warriors whose earliest incarnations were as semi-divine beings. When the authors realised that a giant who was a Canaanite from the Bible lands had been paraded around the nearest city to Stonehenge for hundreds of years, the reality of the association of giants to the great circle suddenly made sense. Were Giant Skeletons Unearthed in the Greater Stonehenge Landscape?. [Extracted from the article]
