The Cardiff Giant was one of many frauds perpetrated by promoters of the theory of evolution.{{fact}}

'''The Cardiff Giant''' was a fradulent statue, promoted as a [[fossil]] of a giant man.

George Hull, a New York atheist, perpetrated the fraud after arguing with a Minister about a passage in Genesis that claimed there were 'giants' on Earth in biblical times.  After creating the fake out of a block of Gypsum quarried in Fort Dodge, Iowa, Hull transported it to his cousin's farm where it was buried for a year.  The two men charged 25¢ to view the fake.

Barnum]] was unable to purchase the giant, he had another one carved and promoted it as the original.
