City of Giants

Archaeologists led by Timothy Insoll from the University of Exeter's Institute of Arabic and Islamic Studies have reportedly uncovered a long-lost city believed to have been inhabited by giants during a recent excavation in Ethiopia's Harlaa region. While previous archaeological research in the area mainly focused on discovering ancient human remains, the team sought to locate evidence of ancient settlements that could potentially support the existence of giants in the city. The discovery of buildings made of massive stones, which locals claimed could only have been lifted by giants or individuals with exceptional strength, along with the regular unearthing of old coins and pottery, point to the possible existence of an ancient settlement in the area. Although the researchers did not find any additional proof of giants in the region, they did find that Ethiopia had more significant ties to the outside world than previously thought.
