These monsters were not only ten times as high as Christian, but ten times as wide and ten times as thick, so that their total weight was a thousand times his, or about eighty to ninety tons. Unfortunately the cross sections of their bones were only a hundred times those of Christian, so that every square inch of giant bone had to support ten times the weight borne by a square inch of human bone.As the human thigh-bone breaks under about ten times the human weight,Pope and Pagan would have broken their thighs every time they took a step.

Quoting Ian Mulligan’s Citation in The American Archivist (Pdf version)
There is a reference to Ian Mulligan’s Book in The American Archivist Vol. 83, No. 1 Spring/Summer 2020. Here’s a quote from the pdf version of the article:

For those who have participated in web archiving activity and pondered how the records would get used, and for those who are looking to get involved in web archiving but are not sure what it takes, these two books are essential reading.

COTTON MATHER CALLED THEM “THE HIDDEN ONES. ” THEY NEVER preached or sat in a deacon’s bench. Nor did they vote or attend Harvard. Neither, because they were virtuous women, did they question God or the magistrates. They prayed secretly, read the Bible through at least once a year, and went to hear the minister preach even when it snowed. Hoping for an eternal crown, they never asked to be remembered on earth. And they haven’t been. Well-behaved women seldom make history; against Antinomians and witches, these pious matrons have had little chance at all. Most historians, considering the domestic by definition irrelevant, have simply assumed the pervasiveness of similar attitudes in the seventeenth century. Others, noting the apologetic tone of Anne Bradstreet and the banishment of Anne Hutchinson, have been satisfied that New England society, while it valued marriage and allowed women limited participation in economic affairs, discouraged their interest in either poetry or theology. For thirty years no one has bothered to question Edmund Morgan’s assumption that a Puritan wife was considered “the weaker vessel in both body and mind” and that “her husband ought not to expect too much from her.”‘ John Winthrop’s famous letter on the insanity of bookish Mistress Hopkins has been the quintessential source: “. . . if she had attended her household affairs, and such things as belong to women, and not gone out of
