At the present time, it is generally accepted that St. Petersburg was built on a swampy area that was not inhabited by people. And there are many versions of what exactly this glorious city is based on. One of the versions says that St. Petersburg was built on the site of a very ancient city. And there are more and more researchers who prove this version.
In the distant XVIII there was such a historian and writer Mikhail Dmitrievich Chulkov. He published books, but they were not taken seriously and were considered ordinary fairy tales.
Chulkov in his books talked about a certain city Vinet, which was before the founding of St. Petersburg. The Slavs lived in it and they were brave and strong people. And the sovereign of the glorious Vineta was Moraloblag, who was also a worthy commander. He declared war on Rome and Greece, and also conquered neighboring nations.
The historian also wrote about a city like the Host. The writer said that this city stood on the shores of the Varangian Sea. The city itself was a kind of hexagonal figure, and each corner of this figure ended in a tower that resembled an Egyptian pyramid. In the city itself, Atlas was located, who held the sky in the form of a ball on his shoulders. And this ball was in various rubies, the brilliance of which seemed like the sun.
