Human life is very short. What happened to me yesterday seems like a gray-haired old age to my children. And I, in turn, experienced a real shock when I saw in the work book of one of the employees of the company in which I work, a record that in 1969 he worked as a second assistant to a steam locomotive driver (simply put, a fireman). Therefore, there is nothing surprising in the fact that we easily take for antiquity what cannot be antiquity in principle.
Megalith, your mustache is unstuck
The most obvious example is the Moscow Kremlin. The symbol of Russia, the oldest and largest active fortress in the world. Do you remember the words of the song "Moscow May" by brothers Pokrass and Lebedev-Kumach? "Morning paints the walls of the ancient Kremlin with gentle light …". Thus, in the minds of each of us, a stereotype was fixed about the incredible antiquity of the main attraction of the capital of our Motherland.
And all the reference books say that the Moscow Kremlin was built between 1482 and 1495. Sightseers visiting the Kremlin gaze in awe at such ancient walls and towers, and it never even occurs to them that in fact all of this was built between 1920 and 1937. Out of habit, using the phrase "Moscow white-stone", everyone calmly gazes at Moscow "red-brick", and nodded. Like, yes … What antiquity …
But until the beginning of the twentieth century, not a single red brick in the walls and towers of the Kremlin existed. Only when the “reds” won the “whites” in the civil war, everything white in the Kremlin was hastily replaced with red. In 1918-1919, under the direction of the architect N. V. Markovnikov, the walls and towers of the Kremlin were restored; I. E. Bondarenko, I. V. Rylsky and D. P. Sukhov took part in the works. But these are still flowers.
At least we are not hiding the fact of the Kremlin's restructuring. And in Europe, no one stood on ceremony when it came to money. To lie so to lie to the end, and there the buildings of the late nineteenth - early twentieth century were generally attributed to the times of antiquity. Fans of the "medieval" Gothic architecture of European cities, it would not hurt to know that one hundred and fifty years ago, most European cities did not differ at all from the ancient Russian ones. Here's a prime example:

Guess it's Pskov, Novgorod, or Yaroslavl? So that's it. This is a fragment of the map of the city of Lutetia, known today to everyone as Paris. This is how he appeared before Sebastian Münzer in 1554. The same walls, the same towers as in Moscow. And not a single hint of Notre Dame Cathedral with its stone chimeras. Not. The cathedral itself certainly existed, but what did it look like !?
Only when the world began to be divided into countries and nations, only then there was a need for the unconditional self-identification of new peoples, so that it was clear to everyone that this people from the antediluvian times was fundamentally different from all other peoples, and had its own:
- speech,
- costume,
- architecture,
- music,
- theater,
- dancing,
- kitchen,
- ceremonies,
- literature,
- history,
and everything else that makes the nation feel different from everyone else. The global concept of such a division is clear to all sane people. The postulate “divide et impera” (divide and rule) is sometimes attributed to N. Machiavelli, or to some prehistoric Roman senators or emperors, but most likely, this is not such an ancient discovery, because its active use began at the end of the eighteenth century … But this all concerns the prerogative of the global predictor, and at the very bottom everything is much simpler.
It's all about the most common human vices and weaknesses. Greed and vanity, especially when combined with stupidity, bear their bitter fruit. For example, there is a certain talented artist Petrov. He is a genius of portrait painting, but he is forced to intervene from bread to water, because no one buys his paintings. And so he takes up the production of a portrait, copying the technique and palette of the famous medieval artist, whose paintings are sold at world auctions for millions. Further fantasy is no longer required. Some old woman, "accidentally" will find a dusty painting in an old frame in the attic, and experts will confirm that this is a hitherto unknown "creation of the great …" Instead of ellipsis, put "Rubens" or "Canaletti" or "Degas". All. In the bag. Everyone has money and everyone is smiling.
Exactly the same thing happened with the "monuments of national literature." At about the same time, the epics of Gilgamesh, Kalevala, Manas, the Scandinavian Edda, and other "Songs of the Nibelungs", "The Lay of Igor's Campaign" and "Kraledvor manuscript" were accidentally discovered. All this, albeit talented, is fake. The same applies to the "antique" creations of Ovid, Archimedes, Herodotus, Pliny, Publius, etc.
Nobody wants to pay money for some "nonsense". But if the nonsense is given "status", attributing to it the authorship of an ancient philosopher, then you can get rich on it. The "fool's law" is widely used in our time every second. If you advertise a cheap shampoo about how it washes your hair well, then no one will buy it. But if the same shampoo is positioned as “for intimate areas”, and even to say that it does not contain methylpropenylenedihydroxycinnamenylacrylic acid, and is saturated with “micropeptides with ceramides” based on nanographene particles, then cheap liquid soap can be sold at the price of an elixir of youth.
Approximately the same marketing technique was used by the enterprising British, who turned a pile of stones into a symbol of the power of their distant ancestors, who supposedly possessed knowledge and technologies that were millennia ahead of the rest of the world.
Stonehenge without keratin and cholesterol
About fifteen years ago I read the book of the Doctor of Geological and Mineralogical Sciences, Professor Igor Vladimirovich Davidenko "What is Stonehenge". It was one of those books that radically changed my worldview. At first it was hard for me to believe that at the beginning of the twentieth century no one knew about this "megalithic observatory" of the Neolithic era (more than 6000 BC), and on the hill in Wiltshire (England) what then stones. But the arguments presented by the professor turned out to be more weighty than stereotypes. In addition, soon someone digitized and uploaded photographs from 1954 to 1958, which detail the entire process of creating one of the most unprecedented historical falsifications of the twentieth century:
Of course, the authorities call it "restoration", as in the cases of the Moscow Kremlin, Notre Dame de Paris, the Cologne Cathedral, etc. But facts are more eloquent than any words. Comments, as they say, are unnecessary. The report (I have selected only a few photos from the set) details the entire process of building the "cromlech" from the marking to the application of "Old English runic" inscriptions that "no one can decipher." But to add, there is something.
Much becomes clear if you know exactly where the object, taken under the protection of UNESCO in 1984, is located (why is it so late? Were they waiting for a change of generations?). The fact is that Stonehenge is located practically on the territory of a military base, under round-the-clock surveillance of the military. Here is a comment from one of the countless authors who have written articles about the fake Stonehenge: -
- Around Stonehenge for over 100 years - a closed area, guarded by the military, patrolled by military planes and helicopters, with daily artillery fire.
- Local residents were evicted during the Second World War under the pretext of exercises; the villages were taken over by the military, and this situation continues to this day.
- Agricultural activity in the large area of the plain where Stonehenge is located is prohibited
- There was an infrastructure on the territory that allowed large-scale construction (including airfields, a branch of the railway), which was subsequently abolished as unnecessary
Perhaps it was difficult to find a more suitable place for the construction of Stonehenge …
And here is a curious photo in every sense from today. Very symbolic …
Barrack Obama at Stonehenge.
And like a seam with white threads - from under the collapsed part of the plaster "coat" one can see the reinforced concrete base of the "megalith". This is the whole point …
A grandiose lie in its insolence. However, it is nothing compared to the scale of falsifications in European cities. Opening the mechanism of this scam will help to take a fresh look at the abundance of "ancient monuments" in Europe, and their scanty number in Russia. It is enough to look at the political situation in various parts of Eurasia in the second half of the nineteenth - first half of the twentieth centuries, and a lot will become clear.
Continued: Part 11.
P. S. There is an article about the version not only of the construction, but also of the meaning of Stonehenge.
