Hello, and welcome to the program.
Today's topic Giants. That's correct.
Large bipedal humanoid creatures known as Giants, not.
And we're not talking about people with, with birth defects.
Say people that have had some sort of brain injury that caused
them to grow to our extraordinary, Heights or even,
just really tall people know, we're talking about actual
Giants. But before I get into that, I
think it. I think we almost have to look
at a little bit of a history as far as the discovery of are
these supposed alleged Discovery at least of these giant remains.
And it hasn't always been a proud history.
In fact a lot of work has been done on the Giants of Catalina
Island's there off the coast of California strange, as it may
seem also the location of many Uso observations there.
And a lot of people including myself wonder if there's not
some sort of connection between those Giants and the UFOs found
there at any rate as a little bit of background.
I think it's important to point this out.
Even though it kind of lends a little bit of a dark shadow onto
the whole Discovery process of giant giant skeletons.
I think it has to be mentioned. This article came out in Los
Angeles Times, clear back in 2013.
Title is Catalina exhibit illuminates.
A dark episode in Islands past and article is by Louis.
Shh Hogan Los Angeles Times May 12 2013 says a Catalina Island
museum has opened a window into a dark period of life on the
island, with an exhibition devoted to a pseudo scientist,
who looted Native American Graves.
For-profit eight decades ago, the strange and mysterious case
of dr. Glidin her Glidden Which opened
over the weekend, examines The Life and Times of Ralph Glidden
Huck's, Trish entrepreneur, entrepreneur, who in the 1920s,
and 30s excavated bones, and Relics from the tongva Indian
burial grounds for sale and trade.
He also presided over an Indian museum, literally made of Bones
and situated on a hill. Overlooking, Avalon Harbor.
I'm pretty sure most of us can see that.
That is not only not a good. Taste, but pretty desperate,
respectful to be digging up human remains, and then making a
museum out of them news articles from the 1920s, written by
Glenn's publicist described. His Indian museum, as a unique
and weirdly spectacular institution with shoulder, blade
cornices and windows edged with toe ankle wrist, and finger,
bones leg, and arm bones served as brackets for shells lined
with skulls ceiling, panels were decorated with Human vertebra
and rosettes of shoulder blades. Then it says for the record
Catalina Island Museum exhibit in the May 13th.
L80 extra section for an article about the Catalina Island
Museum, exhibition devoted to Ralph Glidden, who looted Native
American Graves for profit eight decades ago, said that hundreds
of Skillet ins skulls and thousands of teeth.
He Unearthed were moved to UCLA. The Remains are being housed,
are only temporarily and Until arrangements are made for reap
repatriation elsewhere. While the whole thing, just
sounds ghoulish to me. It goes on and says, the
Catalina Island museums look back at.
Glendon is rooted in a discovery last year.
Curator John bourgignon, a chanced upon boxes of glidden's,
journals Legends letters and photographs, while searching a
musty back room for items for an exhibit of the World War two
era. Now, I suppose seven years later
the whoop professors at LOL, would have more than distance
themselves from mr. Glendon.
But it's pretty clear here that at one time they were working
hand in hand. I mean, he went out and well, he
looted those Graves, let's just call it what it is, is hard to
even refer to it as an archaeological project, and then
gave those human remains. To the University of Los
Angeles. Is that what it says?
At any rate there? They're at a state college and
you have to wonder, why wasn't he stopped more than a year
later? The museum has mounted what
executive director, Michael D, Marsh calls, a disturbing and
troubling exhibition about glitches.
Work Holocaust museums examine similar issues that genocide of
a people. The description is Graves and
lack of respect for sacredness of their remains.
Well, it's easy to distance yourself from the why 80 years
after the fact, but the point is, I took possession of these
of these remains and that in itself to me, It's just lending
tacit approval. So, this is another example of
how the establishment, let some pretty shady sketchy, things
happen and then when the you-know-what hits the fan they
separate themselves by just throwing the guy under the bus
especially easy to throw him under the bus when he's already
under the turf, it says, interdiction in the entry
Corridor sets, the scene for visitors, any evaluate, any
evaluation of a life. And work of Clayton, must must
contend not only with his disregard for the sanctity of
human remains but the near permanent damage he inflicted on
Research into Native American Life on Catalina Island, it
reads in part. Well talking about sanctity of
human remains that's that's kind of the pot coming, kind of the
pot calling the kettle black. When we consider how many of
these universities have drawers upon drawers.
Of ancient human remains. And you have to even wonder why
he didn't present himself as dr. Glidden and he told many of the
in many of us culture remains artifacts here on Earth
represent he sold many. They have a misprint there and
he sold many of the skeptical remains of the skeletal remains
and artifacts he Unearthed to prestigious institutions.
He longed to turn up evidence of a mythical prehistoric race of
giant. Fair skin blue eyed Native
Americans. He Saved once inhabited the
Channel Islands, including Catalina 26 miles off the coast.
There has been a lot of stuff written about this guy in about
the notion that he uncovered giant skeletons, giant giant
race of red haired, blue-eyed Giants and you can look into
that yourself. But before I got into that, this
is what I wanted to present, how he came to that conclusion.
And part of how I came to that conclusion.
Was it by just the wholesale, destruction of a lot of the
Native American graves, in 1930 Glidden announced that he had
discovered a £138 soapstone earn that contain the skeleton of a
young royal princess crouched, in an upright position with her
fingers clenched over the rim, the urn, he said was surrounded
by these skeletons of 64. Children, buried in tears for
deep about five feet below the children.
Glidden said, Ed was a skeleton of a man.
Seven foot eight inches tall with a spear blade and bedded
he's left side. There are no known photographs
of those skeletons being on Earth, but the urn became an
attraction at glidden's Museum, which closed in 1950 after
glutens. Death.
In 1968, the Wrigley family of chewing gum Fame, bought his
collection for five thousand dollars, and then donated it to
the Catalina Island Museum. The artifacts jugs bowls,
baskets peas, ambulance Rings shells.
Ornaments Gears grinding Stones, cutting tools, and arrowheads
remain stored under lock and key.
Hundreds of skeletons, skulls and thousands of teeth were
moved to UCLA. Now it almost sounds like the
Wrigley family went in a bot up this stuff immediately turned it
over to this Museum. I guess it call Shell company
and it sounds like maybe the university UCLA there ended up
with the good stuff and you have to wonder if this isn't the Deep
state. But deep States way of Barrack
of bearing, the evidence burning the evidence of these of these
Giants. If there weren't any giant giant
skeletons found, well, obviously, they're at the
University now. Wendy Teeter cured, archaeology
at UCLA's, Fowler Museum said the exhibit presents, an
opportunity to discuss to discuss, what these kinds of
collectors were doing across the country and share some of the
pain that Native American communities have been feeling
all along. On the exhibition includes a
documentary film featuring featuring recent interviews with
Catalina residents, who still recall paying the man whom some
say, new, as Uncle Ralph 35 cents to look inside his Museum.
Well, the problem with this Museum that I see from this
article in 2013, is that it just shows tiny select sample of what
was found. These are exactly the kinds of
situations where the evidence needs to be examined.
That needs to be a lot more transparency involved, and you
almost need a truth commission to go in.
And look at these bone samples that UCLA has under lock and
key. Because that, right there tells
you that, whatever this man found was important enough for
the University to take a position of and to keep now.
The question is, I know that There.
It's just a by this time it's a jumbled collection of human
remains. Obviously this guy was not a
professional archaeologist. It's just a one-man digging
team. Okay, it's kind of its kind of
apathetic what he did really when you think about it we're
just going in there and just digging up hundreds of graves.
Now, the problem is, if If these people were really concerned
about the feelings of Native Americans about the disrespect
shown towards these remains, why don't they go ahead and re-enter
these things on the island. Somewhere set up a nice little
burial ground there or possibly just return them to the Native
American people and let them do with them what they will.
I mean that would seem to be the easiest thing to do but instead
you know they've got these artifacts.
Like they're talking about this huge Stone urn, which they don't
even explain what it was used for.
And why a normal sized group of people say, people five six foot
tall would want to have this giant urn.
They don't explain why. This young girl was buried at
this, is some sort of sacrifice, or what, what we do know though
is that there were lots and lots of reports of giants being found
and some supposed pictures for Catalina Island, but we have no
physical proof. There's also rumors.
I've heard That some of these skeletal remains were shipped
off to the Smithsonian. But according to the article,
the UCLA has them. So the university there at Los
Angeles has these things are did have as as far as 2013 and as I
said, with all the political baggage that would go along with
holding on to these Native American remains.
Why not? Just do your DNA analysis and
ship those things. Back to the closest Native
American tribe or Nation or whatever, that's around there,
and let them deal with And you have to wonder if they haven't
found out something that's really interesting.
Maybe they found out that the DNA does not match local Indian
populations. Native American Indian.
Populations may be the actually do have the remains are partial
remains of a giant skeleton that would lend itself to this
notion. That Catalina was once populated
by seven, eight nine foot tall. Red haired blue.
Eyed Giants. We don't know and we probably
will never Never know, because as far as we can see here, this
this museum is, are calling. It is simply populated with some
items that were dug up, will not catalog correctly.
We can't really make any conclusion about them other than
the fact that yeah, these were some Native Americans that lived
here at some time or another. We don't know the ages of the
dates. We don't really have a context
for this stuff because this guy just went through there
willy-nilly and Doug this stuff up, and you have to ask.
Why was he allowed to do this? I know it's 1920 but for crying
out loud. Why couldn't somebody say stop?
The whole thing is just a textbook case of what happens.
When a pseudo-scientists is turned loose on archaeological
site, digs up a ton of evidence that conflicts with the
so-called fossil record or the so-called historical record.
And then all that evidence is jumbled together confiscated by
a giant deep State Museum or university somewhere.
And then we're left with just the tip of the iceberg, which I
can't ride around in some little museum display and say, oh look
at this. Look Look what bad things.
This guy did. Well, if he did such bad things
and it looks like he did, then why doesn't the UCLA?
Why have they given this stuff back?
I guess I'm not aware if they have, but simply there has not
been a transparent above the board analysis of what was
found. There were there Giants on
Catalina Island who knows a lot of people think.
So, until next time, this is UFO warning over and out.
