Peter Marx

Peter Marx (c. 1846 - September 5, 1922) was a Prussian-born rancher who long resided on land near Walnut Creek (and Juniper) in Yavapai County, Arizona, where he claimed to have discovered the skeletal remains of a giant in 1911. Of note, Marx's ranch in close proximity to several sites surveyed in an archaeological expedition, led by J. W.
