Kap-Dwa the Two-Headed Giant

Kap-Dwa is the name for a manufactured mummy that was toured as a sideshow attraction, the main selling point being that it was not only was it a giant, being over eleven feet (3.35m.) to twelve feet (3.65m.) in height, but that it had two-heads. The mummy was variously claimed to be of Maori (New Zealand), Patagone (South America), or Paraguayan extraction, and was frequently hailed in advertising as a former king. It was similar, so far as can be ascertained, to other dicephalous giants that toured the United States of America during the same time period, including Kings Capuwar and Mac-a-dula.
