Hugh Newman & Jim Vieira | Giants of Ancient Britain, Geomancy, & Megalithic Sites
Christianization and the Erasure of Pagan History
Hugh Newman explains how the transition from pagan to Christian culture in Britain led to the systematic burial of giant traditions. Historical accounts of Brutus defeating the giants Gog and Magog were considered factual history until the early 1900s when they were reclassified as folklore. The church's practice of building over megalithic sites further obscured the physical and cultural evidence of Britain's giant-centric origins.
