Unless you totally depend on BBC for information, you should know of the increasing unearthing of evidence supporting the existence of titans - giants way bigger that we all assumed. Some miles in height. Both human and animal by the way. Fossilized body parts are scattered all over the face of the earth. Thanks to Google earth, these mudfossil are now being studied and exploved.

It would seem that there was a catastrophic flood that brought about their extinction. Most traditional shrines and places of worship are currently built on such sites.

It must have been surreal for our forefathers to watch their gods turn to stone. The continued to worship them in their death, and take - away gods (idols) would be extracted from those stones.

Watch this... petrified tree ... A tree that turned to the hardest rock I know ...
