Sycamore Creek Giant

The Sycamore Creek Giant was an alleged giant skeleton that was claimed to have been excavated somewhere along the Verde Valley Railroad line near the Sycamore Creek in Yavapai County, Arizona during 1913, described in press reports as having an estimated height of at least 8 feet (2.44 m.) with a correspondingly large skull. The skeleton was said to have been in the possession of C. W. Corbin, a rail conductor, and the site of the find had also contained beads that were thought to be from the Toltec period (900-1521 AD), but that these had been taken away by the rail labourers. No further information has been found regarding the claim at this time.
