At the beginning of the 21st Century monsters still roam the remote, and sometimes not so remote, corners of our planet. It is our job to search for them. The Centre for Fortean Zoology [CFZ] is - we believe - the largest professional, scientific and full-time organisation in the world dedicated to cryptozoology - the study of unknown animals. Since 1992 the CFZ has carried out an unparalleled programme of research and investigation all over the world. Since 2009 we have been running the increasingly popular CFZ Blog Network, and although there has been an American branch of the CFZ for over ten years now, it is only now that it has a dedicated blog.

WHO WAS TOM HICKATHRIFT?

A legendary giant, supposed to have lived in East Anglia, a region of England comprising several counties.  His legends contain no detail of when he is supposed to have lived, he is just thought of having lived in days agone.  He is notably remembered for a fight with an ogre who could have easily been seen as a Bigfoot type creature.  He overcame this creature by using the wheel of an ox-cart as a club.

One theory is that he never existed, But is a memory  of a god of the Iceni, an ancient British tribe that flourished in the area.  With the onset of Christianity, he was demoted from god to warrior.
