History: Fiction or Science? (Chronology, No. 1)

Book Description

Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03

Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.

Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19

Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.

Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09

There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.

For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.

Very Interesting.......2007-03-07

It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.

History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10

Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.

I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.

Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.

Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.

I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.

This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

beauty and quality.......2006-01-08

I enjoy nice stationery and notecards. These notecards are beautifully different and are of high quality paper. Even the envelopes are nice and thick (not flimsy) and are lined with a green color. I was very pleased with this purchase.

Excellent Quality, Beautiful Pictures.......2005-01-21

These cards are a fabulous choice for any stationary lover. The pictures are clear, moving, and different. Most satisfying is the thickness of the cards and envelopes-like that of fine stationary, not something you would buy at Hallmark. If you are look for high quality note cards that are beyond the ordinary, you've found them!

Imagine impressionists such as Claude Monet and Pierre Renoir painting flowers Oriental style. Although I had looked carefully at the photos available online, when I opened the box I was very surprised at how beautiful the paintings were.

Book Description

Inside you is the power to do anything

Anathema Bane has created a curse so powerful that it will not stop until all life on Earth is extinct

Firefly, along with some old and new friends, has been chosen to stop this Perfect Curse. To do so her fairy team must travel long roads, seek help from strange creatures, and, if they are brave enough, enter a place so hidden it can only be found under the light of a Blue moon.

What if you discovered you had magical fairy powers? Meet the girls of The Fairy Chronicles,
otherwise normal girls like you with special gifts. Their extraordinary adventures will change the world!

Magic surrounds us, though we can't always see it. Gnomes add color to the plants in our gardens, doves deliver our good dreams, gremlins occasionally break our things and Mother Nature keeps the balance between the light and the dark. But just because you can't see something doesn't mean it can't hurt you.

Luckily, Mother Nature has blessed some otherwise ordinary girls with an extraordinary gift: in addition to being girls, they have been granted a fairy spirit, each one as unique and beautiful as the girls themselves, each as wild and powerful as their counterparts in nature. Watch Dragonfly zoom by with the speed of her namesake, or witness Firefly use the incredible light that shines within her. Each fairy spirit is a powerful gift granting the girls who use them the ability to do amazing feats. But with power comes responsibility and the fairies might have the hardest of job of all: to protect Mother Nature and us, even though we don't even know they existed. Until now

My Favorite Book.......2007-08-28

Firefly is my favorite fairy. The squit in this book might be a dwarf trick. The squit is named Firecracker and he catches air flies. A spcial kind of blue moon made Blue Moon Clover grow. This clover saves the squirrels and everyone else from a curse. Firefly and her friends go through the woods and find a dwarf and a stag to uncover the clover. I like this book because the fairies have so much fun. We are going camping when it gets cooler because there are less bugs. I read this book twice and I am going to read it again.

"Great for 3rd and 4th Graders & A Breath of Fresh Air".......2007-08-16

This book series kept my kids busy this summer. They read the first two books at least three times each. I was so glad when the next two came out so I could get them to read more books.
I have screened the books carefully, and I am not only satisfied, I am delighted. This is terrific -- nothing but good stuff here. The girls in the books even get along with each other. The nature and garden parts really add to the quality of the experience.
"Firefly and the Quest of the Black Squirrel" is my favorite of the first four in this series, so I am doing the review for it. The girls (who are also the fairies) go camping. They are on their Spring Break and expect to just have a fun time. Then they are sent on an important mission. They meet interesting characters along the way and help solve a pretty big problem. The story flow is excellent, and we are pulled along on the mission with the fairies. I could almost hear what they were saying and I felt as though I was breathing the clean fresh air.
My daughters tell me that they like the fun and excitement. I think they are drawn to this book and the series not only because the books are interesting but because they can identify with the characters. However the girls in the books are not all the same even though they have things in common. One of the characters is getting adopted, another is homeschooled, one of the leaders of a former fairy mission is on a trip with her family, another girl gets into trouble for abusing her fairy power. This adds nice variety and perfectly parallels the variety of fairy spirits with their different gifts and wands. I think my girls also feel empowered when reading these books. It makes them feel like they can make a difference in the world.
The books are labeled for seven and up. I recommend this series specifically for those in third and fourth grade. The length might be a tad short for a high level fourth grader, but the content is very appropriate and will keep them reading. First and second graders would also enjoy the books but might need a little help with the language. Because the books do not contain anything questionable, they would be appropriate to read aloud to even younger children.
I highly recommend this book and the series it belong to as a Breath of Fresh Air.

If you only read one of the series..........2007-07-22

...my daughter and I think it should be this one. Of course we don't know what the future may hold because it looks like there are going to be more of these, but of the first four books, we liked this one best. We are heading camping next weekend because of this story, and we have started spending more time in the backyard and at the park. We found a jumble of ghost leaves fallen from our ash tree. They aren't shaped like hearts like the ones in Firefly's book, but they are still lacy and pretty, and we are using them as bookmarks. We are also looking for the next blue moon. This is helping us connect with nature and we are spending less time as couch potatoes. Firefly leads this fairy mission to help save black squirrels, and a lot of other creatures, from something pretty horrible. We loved her story and can hardly wait to find out what happens next in this series.

A wonderful series! Realistic fairies come alive before your eyes!.......2006-07-31

J. H. Sweet ...
What a treat ...
Writing 'bout fairies,
she can't be beat.

Book one was pure delight;
Book two is "out of sight."

Book three is a kid's dream,
Book four will make them beam.

But wait till you see what's in store;
of fairy books, she has plenty more.

Each of this author's books stands alone as far as storyline, and I discovered something new about fairies and fairy lore in each one. She's a fine writer, so good at her craft that the fairies came alive for me. Interesting storylines, colorful characters in an exciting, entertaining format.

Highly recommended.

"I want a squit!" (quote from my twins).......2006-06-13

I have twin girls and my little "princesses" have turned into "fairies" because of this book. I have heard "I want a squit!" about a hundred times since we read the story. I guess I am going to have to make them out of some material from the hobby store. The way squits are described in the book, I am picturing basketball sized tribbles that are brightly colored and extremely active, popping around and whizzing through the air so I guess a bouncing plastic ball covered with fake fur would do the trick. We have ordered wings and wands too, but I am going to have to get some feathers or silk flowers to simulate the wands of this book because they are all so different.

This story itself is about a group of fairies helping a black squirrel find blue moon clover to heal an illness caused by a goblin curse. Only a Black Stag can find this special clover, which grows only during the most rare type of blue moon. The fairies have to get the location of the Black Stag from a dwarf who keeps that specific secret because dwarves are masters of keeping secrets. The journey is very lyrical as the fairies travel through purple meadows, over rivers, through a Forgotten Forest, and through a white meadow. I would say this is very much like an idyllic fairy tale because fairy tale would be the best way to describe it. It is a good story for both kids and adults because I don't think we ever really outgrow these kinds of stories.

Pleasant Simplicity.......2001-08-01

It had been a while since I updated my address book, so I searched for one big enough to hold my current addresses as well as any new ones. This Flowers spriral bound book is not only lovely in it's simplicity, but allows for plenty of entries, two phone numbers per person, a fax number and email listing. It's not a compact purse sized book, but a nice addition to my desktop. I am very happy with this purchase.
