The documented history of human civilization is supposed to reach several millennia back into the past.
And yet if we consider the rate at which civilization is supposed to have progressed, we encounter periods of obscurity and informational vacuum following the alleged decline of every ancient empire, and then everything starts anew.
Inventions are presumed lost for centuries, then re-invented by people whose names bear suspicious semblance to those of the ancient inventors.
Just how true all of this is?
Could history as we know it really be a collation of several chronicles relating to one and the same period of time?
Apparently, this is what the Russian mathematician Anatoly Fomenko claims.
He is the author of the first volume in a series of seven that came out in English recently, and generated incredible controversy amongst professional historians worldwide.
However, all of his work conforms to the highest academic standards and is backed by solid scientific facts; furthermore, some of the most lucid minds of our time support many of the theories put forward by the authors.
Garry Kasparov, the world chess champion, says the following in his preface to volume 1: Documented history tells us of the insatiable need of human beings to make discoveries.
The vector of technological progress is a strictly vertical one.
Every ten years something happens: discoveries, sea voyages, explosions...
Everything keeps on changing, we see constant evolution - from Columbus to the landing on the Moon, from crossbows to nuclear bombs.
Forwards and upwards.
However, the traditional ancient history tells us of periods when humanity apparently remained dormant for centuries - "ancient" Egypt, the mediaeval "Dark Ages" - whole epochs of utter stasis in human thinking.
It appears that the inhabitants of ancient Egypt and Rome had a different genetic code, and couldn't be bothered about anything at all, so they froze in their development, the result being a total lack of innovative activity.
At the same time, there had been prosperous ancient empires where those among *** sapiens who possessed penchants for arts and sciences could get plenty of opportunities for growth and development.
But, alas and alack, all of the prosperous "ancient" empires had ceased their development at some point."
This book will change your entire perception of History forever!
What if Ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt were invented during the Renaissance?
What if The Old Testament was a rendition of events of the Middle Ages?
What if Jesus Christ was born in 1053 and crucified in 1086 AD?
Sounds Unbelievable?
Not after you've read "History: Fiction or Science?"
by Anatoly Fomenko, the leading mathematician of our time.
We shall never know just how many historical documents are in fact counterfeit.
History in general goes hand in hand with the history of forgeries; countless chronicles as well as works of art and literature have been considered authentic for centuries before becoming denounced as counterfeit.
A presumed fragment of Cicero's "De Consolatione" discovered by the famous humanist scholar Sigonius only became identified as a work of the latter two centuries after the death of the author - we would probably still believe in Cicero's authorship of said fragment if it hadn't been for the discovery of Sigonius' written confession.
Similar examples are rather abundant - the "Thespian poet Lucius Varus" who turned out to be a 18th century Dutch scientist by the name of Heerkens plagiarizing from the 16th century Venetian author Corrario, the German "translation" of a Phoenician history tractate by a student named Wagenfeld in the 19th century, "classical" texts sold to the Leipzig library by a certain Schennis in the 1920's and so forth.
Think of just how many remain undiscovered - after all, the larger part of the iceberg always remains underwater.
However, there may be an equal amount of valid historical documents in existence that were declared forgeries due to their being at odds with the official history.
Anatoly Fomenko, the prominent mathematician, was the first to apply natural scientific methods to historical data, coming up with a revolutionary theory which implies a radical revision of history as we know it.
This theory finally explains such historical oddities as the existence of Christian tabernacles in the pagan town of Pompeii and the Ottoman Turks referred to as "Persians" in mediaeval documents.
It is rendered in Fomenko's fundamental work entitled: "History: Fiction or Science" which is finally out in English.
