Where Did "Bigfoot" Originate?

Legends of human-like creatures go back a very long time, and legends exist on every continent except for Antarctica because of weather. They go by many names, the most common of which are Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti.

It wasn't until the late 50s when a photo was taken of what was believed to be a Yeti footprint that people became interested in bigfoot. More questionable photos and film began to show up, along with more questionable physical evidence (footprints, hair, etc.), but, to this day, there is no genuine evidence of their existence - no bones, no skeletons, no teeth, no anything.
