Opis

Henry Ford once said: "History is more or less bunk ." Why is that so? The consensual chronologywe live with was essentially crafted in the XVI century from the contradictory mix of innumerable copies of ancient Latin and Greek manuscripts (all originals have mysteriously disappeared) and the "proofs" delivered by the late mediaeval astronomers, cemented by the authority of writings of the Church Fathers. The British Encyclopaedia names Joseph Justus Scaliger (1540-1609) as the founder of the consensual chronology we live with. Scaliger had considered himself a great mathematician and boasted to have solved the classical "ancient" mathematical 'Quadrature of Circle' problem that was subsequently proven insoluble. His principal worksOpus Novum de emendatione temporum(1583) andThesaurum temporum(1606) represent a vast array of dates produced without any justification whatsoever, containingthe repeating sequences of dates with shifts equal to multiples of the major cabbalistic numbers 333 and 360. Numerology was considered a major science then and J.J.Scaliger was aprominent cabbalist of his time. The English philosopher William Ockham (allegedly 1225-1279 AD) said: "entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity." Ockham's razor applied to historyleaves us with a vision of humankind where civilization comes into being in the VIII- X centuries at the earliest, if civilization is understood as a hierarchical systemconsistingof state, army, ideology, religion, communication and writing. Neither J.J.Scaliger nor his followers, clergy or humanistshave paid much attention to Ockham's law whentheycrafted Roman and Greek Antiquity. Their clients were condottieri upstarts who were seeking legitimacy in days of yore in order to become Popes, Cardinalsor to found regal dynasties such as the Medici. They paid exceedinglywell for a glorious but fictitious past. Thorough research shows that there is literally no reliably datable information about events before the VIII century, and that there is only very scarce informationoriginating from the VIII to the X century. As a matter of fact, most events of "Ancient" History took placefrom the XI to the XVI century, werereplicated on paper in 1400-1600 AD, and positioned under different labelsin an imaginary past. We havecross-checked archaeological, astronomical, dendro-chronological, paleo- graphical and radiocarbon methods of dating of ancient sources and artefacts. We found themALL to be non-independent, non-exact, statistically implausible, contradictory and inevitably viciously circular because theyare based or calibrated onthe same consensual chronology. Unbelievable as it may seem, there is not a single piece of firm written evidence or artefact that could be reliably and independently dated earlier than the XI century. Classical history is firmly based on copies made in the XV-XVII centuries of 'unfortunately lost' originals. Our theory simplyreturns the Chronologyof World History to therealm ofapplied mathematics from which it was sequestrated by theclergy in theXVI-XVII centuries.We have developed a valid and verifiablemethod ofhistorical research basedon statistics, astronomy and logic. For example, computer assisted recalculation of eclipses with detailed descriptions allegedly belonging to Antiquity shows that they either occurred in the Middle Ages or didn'toccur at all.A simple application of computational astronomy to the rules of calculation ofEaster according to the Easter Book introduced by the Nicean council of alleged 325 AD shows that it definitely could not have taken placebefore784 AD. Some related questions may arise: when and where was Jesus Christ born, when was He crucified? Was The Old Testament compiled before orafterthe New One, etc..?No, theNew Chronology theorydoes not cancel events, artefacts, Pyramids, Great Walls, etc..etc, butpoints"
