Christian saints and ancient pagan characters can be seen side by side on mediaeval Gothic
cathedrals, see the sculptures of Aristotle and Pythagoras together with the Christian
saints from the western façade of the Chartres Cathedral. In mediaeval texts the ancient
Alexander the Great compliments the French. We see an ancient miniature from the Great
French Chronicle dated to the alleged 15th century that depicts the Trojan origins of
the Francs: the French can trace their ancestry back to Francion, the son of Hector and grandson
of the Trojan king Priam. All these facts, and thousands of others, are rejected by historians,
since they contradict the consensual chronology of Jesuits Scaliger and Petavius.
