"The Hundreds of Cannington and Canings, in Wincanton, In the Fall of 1869, Gideon Emmons and Henry Nichols made a monumental archaeological discovery.

They were digging a well on a farm outside Cardiff, New York, for a man named William Newell.

Three feet down, they hit stone, and as they cleared away the dirt, they made out what
seemed to be a human foot!

Unearthing the whole body, they discovered ario-foot tall petrified man, who would come to be known as the Cardiff Giant.

The Gaia Giant hadn't been reduced to a skeleton but appeared to have been petrified, and now made entirely of stone.

Ribs, an Adam's apple, skin pores, and even a benevolent smile were all apparent on the stone figure.
