i'm almost finished reading chronology 1 of history: fiction or science by anatoly fomenko. only chron 1 and 2 are out now, but supposedly there will be 7 or 8 books total.

i thought perhaps david or some of the other visitors to this site would enjoy these books. perhaps someone with a bit more mathematical skill than me could test fomenko's calculations and see if there are any different results.

the first book is amazing, chock full of mathematics, images from "ancient" books/manuscripts, and literary resources not widely available to the public.

below i will quote from a website talking about the books.

i have spoken with who i believe to be a part of the publishing team for fomenko that book 3 will come out in a few months. same person, who is listed on youtube with all the introductory videos about this book series, had posted on one of the comments that the book is available on google books. i checked and sure enough books 1 and 2 are there. here are the links

i did not learn about the free versions online until after i'd purchased books 1 and 2, but prefer to have the actual physical book rather than reading it online. but in order to share it with others, i find the book links awful handy.

below is a summary taken from http://www.bookmasters.com/marktplc/01098.htm

summary:

history: fiction or science?

has history been tampered with? yes, it has! did events and eras such as the crucifixion of jesus christ, the roman empire , the dark ages, and the renaissance, actually occur within a very different chronology from what we've been told? yes, they certainly did! the history of humankind is both drastically shorter and dramatically different than generally presumed.

why is it so? on one hand, it was usual custom to justify the claims to title and land by age and ancestry, and on the other the court historians knew only too well how to please their masters. the so called universal classic world history is a pack of intricate lies for all events prior to the 16th century. world history as we learn it today was entirely fabricated in the 16th-18th centuries. it's likely that nobody told you before, but there is not a single piece of firm written evidence or artefact that is reliably and independently dated prior to the 11th century.

henry ford once said: "history is more or less bunk! ".

prominent mathematician anatoly fomenko proved it.
