We continue to acquaint the readers of Salik.biz with historical sources. This time we will focus on the works of Andrei Ivanovich Lyzlov and Diodorus Sicily.
Lyzlov's "Scythian history" appeared in print only three times: in 1776 in St. Petersburg the first edition was published, in 1787 in Moscow - the second. The third appeared only in 1990 with a miserable circulation of five thousand copies. This work is practically unknown to modern historians, although some excerpts from the "History" pop up on websites and social networks all the time, because the information presented there is really unusual and interesting.
Lyzlov's work is written on the basis of both Russian chronicles that have not come down to us, such as "The Chronicler Zatop Zasekin", and the works of Polish and Italian historians of the 16th-17th centuries: Stryikovsky, Belsky, Gvagnini, Baronii, who again used a huge amount of materials now lost from Russian, Polish, Lithuanian archives.
It is known that Lyzlov used the monastery libraries, the repository of the Moscow Patriarchal sacristy, it is possible that also documents from the Kazan and Astrakhan archives, which, as we remember, a century later, prompted Tatishchev to "heretical" conclusions, in some ways contradicting the "official" history …
Scythians
Lyzlov writes about the Scythians:
Promotional video:
By the way, you have met this Mezyulina more than once. Let me remind you the logo of Starbucks coffee houses with Melusine, which was later corrected for too frequent dissatisfaction. This is all a fairly well-known story about Starbucks Melusines, I see no point in repeating it here.
So, Andrei Ivanovich quotes from the work of Diodorus Siculus "Historical Library". Well, we have the opportunity to compare.
Diodorus of Siculus.
The Historical Library is a very voluminous work, consisting of forty volumes. The first six describe the events preceding the Trojan War and other legends, the next eleven - events in the World from the capture of Troy to the death of Alexander the Great, the remaining twenty-three - events until the time when the war broke out between the Celts and the Romans under the leadership of Julius Caesar.
Here is how Diodorus speaks of the composition:
Diodorus writes the following about the Scythians:
Strong. I must admit. Strong. Everything is intertwined here in these few paragraphs.
Diodorus Siculus leads the Scythians from Zeus himself, and Lyzov from a certain Eovi. Perhaps "Eovi" is Zeus? It seems to be, although "Diy" is the Russian version of the name "Zeus", derived from its stem "Diw". This basis indicates that the Greek Zeus was the hypostasis of the common Indo-European god of the sky. The same Indo-European basis "Diw-" is present in the Slavic "day". An inexperienced reader will doubt - where, they say, "Diy", and where "Zeus"? It's all about the writing. In Greek it is spelled "Δῖος".
And the mother of the Scythians in Diodorus - yes, a woman with a reptilian tail - Melusine.
Lyzov also cites another version, in which, again, it was not without the Greek epic.
He further writes:
It is worth paying attention here: Moscow and Russians - separated by commas. Like today, Muscovites are somehow in a special way separated from the rest of the country in the perception of residents of other regions. The second, it turns out, the word "Russians" is not Yeltsin's invention of the times of Russia in the 90s, as some claim, it has long been known and used. And, of course, "Tatar-Europian". And the word "Asia" used to be pronounced as "Asia", which I and others have repeatedly paid attention to, but the adherents of the theory of the ancient Ases will rejoice.
And if you just look at the found Scythian jewelry and ornaments, then everything is immediately understandable and clear. And who are the Scythians and who are the tartars, and who we are.
Tartars
I suggested in an article about Tsar Ivan Vasilievich that it is tartars that hide under the "Crimean Tatars". And here I find unexpected confirmation of this. Pay attention, Lyzov writes that for him, for the Sarmatians, the Tatars are strangers, aliens. Here, perhaps, traces of some adjustment. Lyzov wrote:
The Tartars are the Scythians. And it's even a shame to stutter about modern Mongolia. And this is another confirmation of what the authors of tart-aria.info are constantly writing about: Scythians, Tartars, Moguls - all are one. And how long can you zealously repeat the story, how European travelers wrote "P" in the word "Tartaria" by mistake, and correctly write "Tartary" and "Tatars" ?! How much evidence has already been cited!
And here is another link from Lyzov to Boter, and the confusion is only greater:
The fact that German historians are trying to pass off Jews as tartare is interesting. And let's recall those numerous versions of various researchers about the artificial origin of such a people and borrowing history, legends, religion from other peoples. And then there is absolutely nothing to "think over".
This is the territory of Tartary the Great, from the Himalayas to the south of Turkey.
What were the tartars, how did Lyzov speak of them? After all, according to academic history, Russia was under the "yoke" of Tartarus for many centuries.
Can you imagine at least one "defeated" people who would speak so about their enslaver? Firstly, they, it turns out, do not know evil, while they have never been defeated by anyone, and they themselves won everywhere, and Darius, and Cyrus, and Alexander the Great.
They did not know money, not silver, not gold, not because there were such wild ones, but basically did not use them and said that where gold is in honor, there are desires, and where desires, there is godlessness and sin, and such people can always be money and overcome.
On the account of Justin's statement that the Tartars (and they are Scythians) were "rude without sciences", it will be enough to recall at least this:
As you know, no one was able to repeat the samples of the found Scythian jewelry.
In custody
I will no longer bore the reader with excerpts from Lyzlov and Diodorus of Sicily, although you can safely take and disassemble each paragraph, the main thing is that those who have not heard about such historians, recognize them, become interested, perhaps. I attach links to books:
