No, Rock Giant and Stone Giant were just nicknames for the unit because its official name wasn't known at the time. The name of its texture file is "special g golem map.ddt", so it's really a golem and not a giant.

That is incorrect, it was a Greek unit, the G in its file name stands for Greek, we know this because all myth units use the same naming convention. For example, "special g cyclops.ddt", "special n troll.ddt", "special e anubite.ddt".

The conversation on the forum you were reading is from back in 2005 when people were speculating about this illusive unit, but it has since been confirmed to have been a Greek Golem which was replaced with the Colossus.
