Mark, Qoais,

I've read almost a half of Finding Atlantis and posted about it on the "Books on Atlantis" thread.

Rudbeck was amazing.  He opened burial mounds in northern Sweden and disenterred  "countless skeletons" over 8 feet tall and many over 10 feet tall!  There is your land of giants....  In the Viking section I wrote what he said about the "hyperboreans", as well.  Take a look for a whole new view of the question.   This book is wonderful, even though it slants to focusing on his so called "madness".
