Kuala Lumpur (VNA) – Remnants of what is thoughtcoming from giant humans as many-fold larger than a normal person wasdiscovered in a cave in Pulau Upeh island, offshore of Malaysia’s Malaccastate, according to Malaysian historian Mohd Fuad Khusari M. Said.

Mohd Fuad said he discovered some bone pieces in thecave while searching for archeological relics in a mission assigned by theMalacca state government.

The discovery might be another evidence reinforcinginformation that first settlers in Malacca, including those during the Malaykingdom, have giant-sized bodies.

Based on the skull and length of bone pieces, theremnants could belong to a person with a height of three to five metres.

Mohd Fuad also found two abnormally big tombs, 1.2kilometres from the cave. The two tombs are 5m in length and 0.5m in width and20m away.

Earlier, Malaysia discovered some giant tombs in PulauBesar.

DrMohd Jamil Mukmin, chairman of theMalaysian Institute of Historical and Patriotism Studies (IKSEP), said the tombsare much larger than the normal and the reason might be that the buried peoplehave a very large body or they were buried in giant tombs as a way of honouringtheir contribution to spreading Islamism to the world.

PulauUpeh once was the headquarters of Java religious leaders, who came to Malaccato open classes on Islamism to local residents and traders in the 15th century.

Mostpeople buried in giﷺant tombs are religious leaders from Yℱemen.-VNA
