In the present volume, based on the methods, proposed by the author in the book "Figures against Lie", ch.5-6, it is shown, that the "antiquity" – is a phantom reflection of the Middle Ages of the XI-XVI centuries. So, the "antique" events are not invented by some later "writers". They are real and took place in reality. But not in the "deep antiquity", as we were learned to think, and in a much closer to us epoch of the XI-XVI centuries A.D. By the way, next the ancient primary sources were tendentiously edited in the XVII-XVIII centuries already from the point of the newly introduced chronology of Scaliger-Petavius (invented in the XVI-XVII centuries). As a result a picture of the past – earlier the XVIII century – was considerably distorted.
We assert important correspondences (repeats, duplicates) in the medieval and "antique" Roman, Greek and Biblical history. They are discovered by the author in the "historical textbook" of Scaliger-Petavius by means of empirical-statistical methods. The same events were described by different chroniclers, but later their chronicles were artificially expanded in time by the latest chronologists and moved to the far past.
For example, we show that the "antique" Rome is a phantom reflection of the medieval Roman Empire, that is the Great = "Mongol" Empire of the XIII-XVI centuries A.D. It appears that the "antique" Greece is a reflection of the events, which took place in Greece and at the Balkans at the epoch of the XIV-XVI centuries A.D.
In particular, a correspondence between the famous "antique" Trojan war allegedly of the XIII century B.C. and the war of the end of the XII - XIII centuries A.D. It appears that the historians were mistaken in dating of the Trojan war for around 2600 years. Next, we found also other reflections of the Trojan war of the XIII century A.D. in the "far past", known to us today under other names.
We found out that a famous epoch of the XI century A.D. in the history of the Western Christian church, that is the epoch of "pope Gregorius VII HIldebrand" and made by him huge church reform, is a phantom reflection of the epoch of Andronicus-Christ of the XII century A.D., described in the Gospels. Let's stop at this point in more details.
In 1974-1978 I I found out that the "Scaligerian historical textbook" is glued of four short chronicles, moved relatively to each other, see "Figures against Lie", ch.6. One of the most important consequences was a reconstruction of the medieval tradition, which related the life of Christ to the XI century A.D. (instead of the authentic XII century A.D.). This wrong opinion of the medieval chroniclers was first restored by me during analysis of the chronological shift for 1053 years, which combined, in particular, the phantom I century A.D. with the XI century A.D. Next, based on the other considerations, the same point of view of the medieval chronologists of the XIV-XV centuries was discovered by G.V.Nosovskiy, see. "Seven wonders of the world", ch.2.
It appeared that when dating the life of Christ with the XI century (probably, based on imperfect calendar and astronomical considerations) the medieval chroniclers made a mistake for one hundred years.
According to our studies, actually Christ lived one hundred more years closer to our time, that is in the XII century A.D. See the book of G.V.Nosovskiy and A.T.Fomenko "Tsar of the Slaves".
In the book, lying before the reader, the author shows – how exactly imperator Andronicus-Christ was reflected in the chronicles, by mistake related today to the XI century (with one hundred years shift down). It appeared that later chroniclers described Christ as a famous "Roman pope Gregorius HIldebrand", with the name of which is connected the biggest reform of the Western church. Moreover, evangelic John the Baptist, who lived in the XII century, was reflected in the phantom Scaligerian history of the XI century under the name of "Roman hero John Crescentii".
Next it appears that the Biblical Old Testament events are also "raised up". Here a chronological shift is around two thousand years and more.
After return of the "antique" events to their authentic chronological place at the epoch of the XI-XVII centuries A.D., lightning of the Ancient times changes radically. The written history of the mankind is considerably shortened compared to the version of Scaliger FOR AT LEAST TWO AND A HALF THOUSAND YEARS. It becomes well-known only from the X-XI centuries A.D.
In the next book "We change dates – everything changes" new methods of analysis of the sources of are stated, which are aimed not only to the establishment of the correct chronology, but also for discovery of the authentic authors of ones or others texts. In particular, V.P.Fomenko and T.G.Fomenko discovered the author's invariant of a statistical character, letting, for example, to discover literature plagiarism. As an application, a famous problem of the authorship of "Quiet Don" is analysed. It appears that the most part of "Quiet Don" is written, probably, not by M.A.Sholokhov.
Other bright applications of this method of author's invariant to the Russian history see in "A miracle of the Russian history", ch.2:32. It is discovered, for example, that "The history" of M.V.Lomonosov is tendentiously rewritten and falsified, probably by G.F.Miller, an opponent of M.V.Lomonosov. And it was cunningly published under the name of Lomonosov after his death.
We don't specially aim for unification of writing of the old names. The issue is that in the old sources the same names and geographical names were often written in a different way. And sometimes in a rather different way. That's why we take into account this important obstacle. It is explained by unconsolidated rules of the medieval language of the XIV-XVII centuries.
It is useful to take into account the following fact. In the Ancient times the texts were often written without vocalizations. That is without vowels or missing most of them. For example, in the Arabic written language the vowels nearly disappeared. There were just no letters for them. The vowels were often descended also in the Church-Slavonic written language. So, the vowels in the old words, and moreover in the names, are not �������, See. "Figures against Lies", ch.1:8. That's why the reader shouldn't be surprised, meeting in our book attempts to recover the old names based of the frames of consonants.
Moreover, the names, which reached our time, often passed a difficult way from the ancient original to the modern edition. They were rewritten, translated from one language to another etc. In different languages, as known, a different direction of writing was used. In the Arabic language, for example, they wrote from write to left. In the Slavonic – instead. That's why at translation of the names the direction of reading could change for the reverse.
