At Lovelock Cave, Nevada, a very large handprint was discovered, apparently belonging to a very large man. Is this another proof of the existence of the ancient race of giants?
For the first time in this cave, two guano gatherers (bat droppings) stumbled upon something strange back in 1911. David Pugh and James Hart were digging in the floor of an ancient mine, digging through thousands of years of valuable guano, when they suddenly dug down to the remains of bones.
According to the men, they dug them from under a six-foot layer of guano, which clearly indicates antiquity. The bones belonged to people of great height. According to the stories of the local Indians of the Paiute people, the bones belonged to the ancient tribe of red-haired giants Si-Te-Cah (Saiduka or Sai), whose last representatives, according to legend, were burned alive, locked up in this cave. This explains the palm print, as if burned into stone.
Si-Te-Cah in the language of the Payut Indians means "thule eaters". Thule (Lake reed) are aquatic plants. According to legend, the giants lived on water, sailing on rafts. Saiduka were huge and cannibals. That is why the Indians fought them and once trapped them in a cave and set them on fire.
Indian Payute woman Sarah Winnemucca Hopkins said that the giants were red and that some pyutes kept locks of red hair as trophies that were passed down from generation to generation.

One of the critics, the historian Adrien Mayor, in his book "Legends of the First Americans" debunks the stories about giants and writes that the bones from Lovelock Cave were bones of normal size and someone supposedly decided to earn extra money on this and give them out of the bones of giants. Or someone found many bones of ancient bears and other animals that actually exist in those places, and passed them off as the bones of giants.
Mayor's words corroborate the story of James Hart, who in 1911 described one of the skeletons as "a mummified body about 6 feet in length (182 cm) with reddish hair." That is, it really does not smell of huge growth. Unfortunately, the remains were soon lost, and according to some reports, they were accidentally destroyed. But later in the cave they found a large braided sandal 38 cm in length. It is said to have been exhibited at the Museum of the City of Reno in 1952.
Let's go back to our days. Two Bigfoot hunters, MK Davis and Don Monroe, recently infiltrated Lovelock Cave and took good photographs of the huge palm print they found. They believe the print belongs to a creature at least 18 feet (5.4 meters) tall. And it really looks like a human palm print.
