Giants are beings of human appearance but prodigious size and strength common in the mythology and legends of many different cultures. The word giant, coined in 1297, was derived from the Gigantes (Greek: ÎÎ¯Î³Î±Î½ÏÎµÏ, GÃ­gantes) of Greek mythology.
Acromegalic individuals and giants have been the subject of fascination for millennia. Whereas there have been a multitude of descriptions in the lay literature since the beginnings of the written word, the first scientific description was probably made by Dutch physician and occultist Johannes Wier. His medical description of a giantess was published in 1567 in the Medicarum Observationum. Further descriptions surfaced in the late 18th and early 19th centuries by Noel (1779), Saucerotte (1801), Gall (1810), and Magendie (1839).
