Are Giants the Old Gods? We look at Indo European mythology to find out about the Jotun and Titans
Who were the Titans? The Jötuns? The Fomorians? The giants of myth, legend and folklore? Some say they were the old gods remembered, others say they were fantasy, made up for stories. Here we take a look at giants and see why they were really in our myths.
We touch on the English Creation Myth, compare Germanic Folklore and Old Norse Mythology, compare different giants, and then examine the culture to see how they fit in? And so we can work out why giants exist, and where they came from. And then perhaps we can find the Lost Civilization of the Megalithic Sites: Who Built Them and When?
