Raising The Cardiff Giant

In an illustration based on a photograph by C. O. Gott, a group of well-dressed men used a tripod hoist to raise what came to be known as the Cardiff Giant from its resting place in the field of farmer William C. Newell, Cardiff, New York, August 16, 1869. It was later revealed to be a hoax conceived by George Hull and had been carved from stone and buried on Newells land the previous year.
