But she might have taken a human male as a mate. That would explain the skulls.

In 1902, the British Navy expanded its base in Malta, and new housing developments started popping up all over the islands. On one job site, workers were digging out an area for a large water tank. Suddenly, the ground gave way, exposing an enormous underground chamber. Excavations revealed a subterranean maze of rooms and burial chambers.

Zamet named the site the Hypogeum, the Greek word for underground. What Zamet found mirrored the megalithic temples above ground. There are limestone walls and doorways, the same slate floors. The stonework is precise and massive. Zamet and his team were stunned by the size of this underground world. Then they discovered this was just the first level. There were two more levels below, maybe more.

And the Hypogeum was full of well-preserved artifacts. The most common design was the same found everywhere on the island, the figure of a giantess. Many parts of the hypogeum were used as a burial site. That meant there would be bones. Zamet recovered the remains of more than 7,000 people. Some of the bodies date back to the Neolithic period.

He documented every bone he found, until he got to a group of skulls he couldn't quite explain. 12 of them. The skulls were elongated.

Well, they do look like that. But Samet knew many cultures around the world used head binding to stretch their skulls. So Samet had scientists examine them. And they confirmed that the long cranium was natural, not the result of bonding or boards. But it gets even stranger. Every human skull has a seam between the two parietal bones. It's called the sagittal suture.

When we're born, our skulls are flexible. That makes it easier for our big head to, uh...

Right. As we grow, the two halves of our skull fuse together, forming that seam. But these elongated skulls had no seam at all. That's impossible. That seam is a key part of human development.

Nope, they didn't seem human. Well, not completely human. In 1920, National Geographic magazine reported that the first inhabitants of Malta were an alien race with elongated skulls. Now, Zamet would have called that crazy, except he couldn't explain the skulls otherwise. Then he remembered the story of Sansuna.

Part of the Sansuna legend is that she carried stones under one arm while cradling a baby in the other. The child was a Nephilim-human hybrid. So let's go back to the skull for a second. For a child to be born with a fully formed skull, it would have to travel through a very large... Babysuit. Yes, like that of a giant. Now, maybe these skulls belong to the descendants of Sansuna.
