The Nephilim (children of angels and humans) were said to be giants, powerful beings, heroes, and demigods. The Nephilim with a Dacian helmet found in the catacombs of Roșia Montană Romania is proof that we are descended from angels. We must include this area in UNESCO patrimony!

The story of the Nephilim is told throughout ancient texts, including those from Abrahamic religions such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Zoroastrianism. It seems that each culture had its own version of how these giants came into being, but all agree that they were a hybrid race born from the mating between an angel and a human woman which resulted in offspring who possessed great size and strength.

The Bucegi Mountains and Nephilim

The discovery of the Nephilim helmet in the catacombs of Roșia Montană, Romania, has caused quite a stir in the archaeological community. Some say that it is proof that the Nephilim were real and that we are descended from angels. While there is no definitive proof that the Nephilim ever existed, the discovery of this helmet does add some interesting fodder to the debate.

It has been estimated that the Nephilim were about 12 feet tall and possessed great strength, intelligence, and life spans of hundreds of years. The Greeks called them γίγαντες (Gigantes) and they were also known as demi-god heroes such as Hercules or Gilgamesh whose story was recorded first in the Epic of Gilgamesh which dates back to at least 2100 BC.

The Nephilim are first mentioned in Chapter 6 of the book of Genesis where it states that “when men began to increase on earth and daughters were born to them, the divine beings saw how beautiful the daughters of men were, and they took wives from among those that pleased them.”

The Nephilim were known to be a violent race, which led to their destruction at the hands of God in what has been commonly called the Great Flood. It is said that Moses and other Israelite Prophets had knowledge of these ancient giants, but it wasn’t until the time of King David that knowledge of them was lost.

Nephilim in the Book of Mormon is an entirely different breed. They are, according to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), people whose ancestors had mixed with “other peoples” before their birth.

The word Nephilim may also refer to the descendants of the Nephilim, or to people who possess Nephilim characteristics. The first mention of them after Noah’s flood is in Genesis 6:4 ‘The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward when the sons of God went in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them.
