Scientists from the Institute of Archeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences have found a Romanesque portal of a 12th century temple in Bogolyubovo (Vladimir Region). It was probably built by Italian architects invited by Prince Andrey Bogolyubsky. The find is reported in the official press release of the institute, received by the editorial office.
The found portal (the main entrance to the building) is part of the temple destroyed in 1722. Later, the Church of the Nativity of the Virgin in Bogolyubovo was erected in its place, which has survived to this day. The discovery was made by a group of archaeologists led by RAS Corresponding Member Vladimir Sedov.
“There are no such buildings not only in Russia, but also in Western Europe. There are a couple of cathedrals in northern Italy, which are not even similar in architecture, but in some details. In general, there is nothing like this, Sedov said.
Despite the importance of the find, the portal will have to be filled up. At least, until the issue of the preservation of a valuable architectural monument is thought out, it cannot be opened for public viewing.
And then they buried …
Nice little one, right?
The first time I heard this news was when I was driving. From laughter I almost drove into the oncoming lane. Immediately I recalled the bewilderment of one of my relatives, who told about how she watched a popular science film, about how archaeologists dug up ruins unknown to science somewhere. In the course of the film, one reputable scientist replaced another, and together they talked about the discovery, literally everything. And what the inhabitants were wearing, and what language they spoke.
The names of emperors, philosophers, astronomers, poets and military leaders were sounded. What has to do with dates, and a lot of details, like one of the "scientific brothers", he himself was a resident of this city, and has survived to this day. And here is the question: - “If the discovery was made by chance, and nothing but fragments of buildings and foundations covered with sand was found, then where did all the“historical”facts come from in such details?

The second question immediately arises: “What would have happened if these ruins had never been discovered? Would we know about all these glorious emperors, poets and commanders”?
The arrogance of historians knows no limits. Not only did they, in passing, invented the history of the origin of what they had dug up, but they did not immediately accept the opportunity to spoil the past of our ancestors. How fiercely it is necessary to hate everything Russian in order to add some mythical Barborossa and Italian architects to the origin of the found masterpiece! Well, what Italian architects could have been at that time !?
In the twelfth century, Vladimir was a metropolis by those standards. And the skill of Russian architects was considered unsurpassed. It was about the cities of the Golden Ring that they spoke with a breath in Europe: - “Gardarika! Country of cities ! There were no Italians at all. It was in the sixteenth century that the Fryazins, who later became known as Italians, worked as guest workers on the construction of the Moscow Kremlin. And now someone wants to turn everything upside down.
Why didn't these "Italian architects" build anything of the kind? Themselves, at that time, lived on the ruins of antediluvian structures, which Piranesi captured in many of his paintings, and went to Russia to earn extra money at a construction site to feed their families. And now OUR scientists say that it was the "great Italians" who built Vladimir, Suzdal, Pereslavl, Ivanov, Yaroslavl, Rostov and Zagorsk?
Note that this happens in our days, when there are few fools. What can we say about those times when there were no sources of information, except for the church, and the crowd of crooks who called themselves scientists who could make any discovery for silver coins. But the saddest thing is that there were immeasurably more "closings" than openings. And making them was easier than a steamed turnip.
Remember how it suddenly turned out that the entire US east coast was built on antediluvian ruins? Let me remind you:
And then we were told stories about the fact that on the North American continent before the newcomers from Europe there were only bare prairies inhabited by red-skinned savages. Well, yes, of course … Only now it becomes clear that not all the antediluvian ruins were razed to the ground, and some of them were apparently rebuilt, and too obvious traces of "not our" culture were barbarously destroyed. In St. Petersburg, they came up with tales that the "antique" statues are just an antique stylization, that on the Champ de Mars in St. Petersburg there is a statue of Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov in the form of an "ancient Roman" warrior.
But the Americans did it easier. They simply pulled from the pedestals everything that does not fit into the framework of the official historical version.
So who are the savages?
Savages (yes, yes, these in hats and wigs who gave the order and are watching from the side) overthrow the monument to the ancient emperor in New York on Browling street in 1776
In the case of the rostral column, they simply put Columbus on it. And a new monument was erected on the pedestal.
There was an ancient city, Europeans came here and settled on the finished one. That's the whole story.
