72 - The capture of the fortress of Masada by the Roman emperor Titus during the Jewish war of 66-73. Titus (Titus) destroyed Jerusalem and the temples and slaughtered over a million Jews there alone. On Titus' orders, Judea was completely devastated and exsanguinated. The emperor tried to destroy the Jews as an ethnic group. The captive Jews were blinded in one eye and castrated and exiled to Nubia to mine gold.
But strangely enough, the Jewish priesthood did not suffer, only the title of high priest was abolished. Not only was Judaism not forbidden, but on the contrary, it spread throughout the empire, and the Jewish people became a pariah nation. The people, from whom Akum-Goi took the most precious thing - the land, given by Yahweh Himself. By the way, Mount Zion, where Moses spoke to his god, is translated from Hebrew as hate.
79 - On August 24, 79, one of the most catastrophic eruptions of the volcano Vesuvius occurred. The Roman cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Stabia, located at the foot of the volcano, were destroyed. Vesuvius produced a giant red-hot cloud of rocks, ash, and smoke up to 33 kilometers high, releasing thermal energy many times greater than that released by the atomic bomb explosion over Hiroshima.

Vesuvius produced a giant red-hot cloud of rocks, ash, and smoke up to 33 kilometers high, releasing thermal energy many times greater than that released by the atomic bomb explosion over Hiroshima.
But look at the volcano, it looks a lot like a waste heap. If it is a volcano, then the walls of the caldera should be melted with liquid lava. And if it's a spoil heap, then the walls should be layered and consist of crumbly rock, which you can dig with a shovel. Let's look and what do we see? A terrickon. This is simply the Vesuvius terrickon in Italy, 1,281 meters high. But they called it a volcano because it burns and once exploded, filling everything with ash, not lava.
98 - The first mention in written history of the Rugae appears to belong to the Roman historian Tacitus. He mentioned this tribe in his work "Germany", and placed it exactly in the same place as other ancient writers place it, namely in the western part of the southern coast of the Baltic. The most ancient mention of a history about Russ can be found and in " Vita " Otgon of Bamberg (1062-1139), the baptizer of coastal Slavs, establishing with a doubtless, that the tribe Russ had the name also "Russinians" (Routenian) and their country was called "Rusinia" (Rutenia), or Russia. Let's note also, that German chronicles named princess Olga "regina Rugorum", instead of "regina Russorum", showing by that, indisputably, that identification Rugs and Russ existed in X century.
278 - the first mention in the history of the chief Russ.
"I know well that it is known to many, but not to all, how once from this Krapina district, according to the reckoning of Peter Kodikilius and many others, in the year 278, the very noble nobleman Czech with his brothers Lech and Russ, and equally with all his associates and clan, left, because, they could no longer endure the great attacks and oppressions which the Romans, and especially the commander of the Roman armies, Aurelius, who was guarding Illyria with an armed hand, were making so much oppression of his kind, that Chech with his own raised a revolt against him and drove him from among the living. And in consequence of this, fearing the mighty hand of the Romans, he left Krapina, his fatherland. For a whole 14 years he served with Salmaninus, the son of Circipanus, then ruler and future leader of the Bohemian people... And it was not until the death of Salman's son, called Turko, who after his father took over the government of the people and died in battle against the emperor Constantine, that Czech took over the reign." / Prokop Sloboda /
Thus begins the legend of the beginning of the Czech nation and state. What the Czechs were called before the beginning of the reign of the Czechs, we do not know. Probably the Bohemians. According to the above legend, the Czech brothers also headed two states, Lechia, i.e. Poland, and Rusia, giving them their names. One shouldn't be overcritical of this information, because what should be understood is not what is now meant by the name Poland or Russia. The question is about a small territory at the junction of Bohemia, Poland and Transcarpathian Rus, where originally these brothers settled. The legend does not see the ancestors of Bohemia, Lech and Rus at all, the named individuals only led the tribes, which had existed for centuries before.
320 - Roman Emperor Constantine I Great has handed over to Pope Sylvester I the gift in which he has declared, that gives eternal secular authority above all grounds of Western Roman Empire to Vatican. There is a statement that, say, the gift of Constantine the Great most real fake. The Italian researcher, zealous Catholic Lorenzo Valle has sounded the aforesaid. The question is, why was it necessary for the Catholic to expose Pope Nicolo I that by his order at the end of VIII century this forgery has been fabricated? Or did he want to be roasted over a slow fire? As the Romans used to say - look for who benefits.
325 - In the city of Nicaea at the First Ecumenical Council, called the Council of Nicaea, the final falsification of the teachings of Jesus Christ took place. The followers of this new doctrine were called "Nicolaitans" by the true followers of Christ. The Nicolaitans were the followers of Bishop Nicholas of Myra, later called "the miracle worker," who led his faction. Alexander of Alexandria and the deacon Athanasius were also the chief representatives of the Nicolaitans. They called Jesus of Nazareth essential with God, wishing by this to say that he was another person or person of the same divine essence, even though Jesus himself claimed, "No one has ever seen God..."; "My Father is greater than I"; "I came not of myself, but He sent me"; "My teaching is not mine, but of Him who sent me". However, they also left intact the old biblical thesis that "deity" is one, that is, it does not disintegrate into individuals like mankind. From the union of these two notions, irreconcilable with each other, with the addition to them on an equal footing of the Holy Inspiration or spirit, came the interpretation of the Vedic doctrine of the Holy Trinity.
The Nicolaitans were opposed by the "Arian" association, whose representatives were Arius, Eusebius of Caesarea, and Eusebius of Nicomedia. The Arians were guided in their ideas about Jesus by the views of the Christians of the first century and argued that he was a transitional being between God and man. They called him like God. The fair accusations of Arius threw Bishop Nicholas of Myra out of balance, and instead of clarification he responded by punching Arius in the face. Thus is described in the "Hagiographies of the Saints" the attack of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker against Arius from the words of John of Studia: "By divine zeal Nicholas, as the second Elijah, was kindled, in the middle of the council he ventured to shame Arius not only by word, but also deed, striking him in the face. For this cause the holy fathers became indignant, and for this insolent act they deprived him of his episcopal honors. But in spite of this, all his "honors" were returned to him, after a short period of time. There was uproar and confusion at the council. Nicholas was thrown out, and after him a simple deacon of the bishop of Alexandria, Athanasius, who later became bishop in Alexandria, became the main defender of the oneness of Jesus with God. After many tumultuous scenes the council decided finally to recognize Jesus as the second person of the deity. The Arians were cursed, and Emperor Constantine recognized the Nicolaitan faction as his state church.
In the foreground of the painting is King Henry of the Vandals. He is giving some kind of orders. The black African allies of Genserich, five of them in the painting, are grabbing delicate Roman girls, the most coveted trophy for them. On the right is a mob of marauders carrying a giant Jewish lampstand. Apparently a synagogue is being looted somewhere nearby. In the distance you can see the smoke of the fires, and at all this madness, with a calm expression on his face, wearing expensive clothes, with an expensive staff in his hands, looks at the master of St. Peter's cathedral. None of the vandals touch him, although all around him the agony of a dying city rages. Karl Bryullov knew what he was painting. Apparently he was a very dedicated artist. His painting of the destruction of Rome speaks volumes.
And the empire of Charlemagne, founded in Gaul by the Franks back in the 5th century, was created in order to bring to a logical end what had begun by the Roman Empire - to complete the Christianization of the vast Zarene plain. The territory inhabited by the peoples who were the heirs of the Lusatian culture: the Lutyches, the Serbs-Lusatians, the Obodrites and the Sorts of the Pomorians. The allies of the Western Slavs during the Frankish Empire were the tribes of the Ogermanic Saxons. It was on them that Charlemagne fell with his army. The main task of the emperor was at all costs to baptize the Saxons, Lombards and Marcomanni to create in the future an army of conquest of the Slavic territories. Thus began the centuries-long war of the Christian west with the Vedic north-east. It ended only in 1168 with the capture of the last Vedic city on the island of Rügen, Arkona.
368 - Goths killed (crucifixion) the prince Bus Beloyar with 70 kinsmen-leaders, after that Ruskolan with the capital Kiyar Anti ceased to exist, splitting into Kievan Rus and Anti.
"We must unite with the others and create a Great Power. We must revive our Ruskolan with Golun, with its three hundred cities and villages. There is the smoke of our oak fires, and Perun, and our land. And the Mother Bird Sva sings of the Day of Tom, and we expect her in the times when the Colo of Svarog will turn to us, and those times after the Bird Sva will come to us" / Vlesova Book /
When the Huns found out about this, they chased their horses day and night. At the mouth of the Dnieper, the two armies of Slovene and Balamber again came together with the Gothic alliance. In a fierce struggle, for two days, the battle was fought. The Goths were broken, Amar Vinitar was killed, and the Goths were thrown across the Danube.
The graceful period of the Trojan Ages, which lasted 1500 years, when the Slavs were ruled by chiefs from the family of Oreus and his sons Kiy, Schech, Horiv, called "Trojan-king" by the people, because they ruled the "triumvirate", hence the "Trojan Ages", came to an end. "And so we were ruled by the Faith for fifteen centuries. But that boon ympaatilized because of the Khazars after the ages of Trojan."
After his death, Busu was erected a monument on the banks of the river Etoko, as evidenced by Jordan, the Book of Veles and ancient Caucasian legends and tales. Indeed, such monument exists, it was transported from the Caucasus and is kept in the vaults of the Historical Museum at the moment. It is noteworthy that the monument has an inscription in Slavic runiform, which is deciphered as memorial words to Prince Busu Beloyar. Under the inscription is the date - 5875, 31st luteny.
420 - approximate time of occurrence of a sort of Russ headed by Kiy in area of Dnieper, on the future Kievschina, after attack on Tsargrad.
"The kings of Kiy (this) prince in his family and came to him to Caesar whom we do not know, but we do not know about seven of them, as they say, as if he received a great price from Caesar, under whom he came to Caesars. And when he came to him again, he came to Dunayevo, and loved the place, and he cut down a small town. And he wanted to sit down with his family. And the Danubeans, who up to this day still call him "the city of Kievan", did not give him that near. / Synopsis
From the above mentioned it is clear that Kiy made a raid on Tsargrad, and the Byzantine emperor was forced to pay him "an honor", i.e. with money, as it repeatedly happened with the Byzantine emperors with regard to the "barbarians". On his way back, Caius liked a place on the Danube and cut down a "small town". To cut down a town you must have enough people and money. Finally, he "although he sat down with his family," so it was not about the relocation of his family, but about the relocation of the tribe. It is clear that he wanted to stand firmly on the Danube. However, his intention was guessed by the local residents and they (apparently by force) prevented him from carrying out his intention, although the fortress had already been created.
The nets did not say: "Kiy was the carrier; but there is such a thing: be at that time Kiy had a carrier from the country of the Dnieper, for this reason they called him carrier. If Kiy had been a carrier, he would not have gone to Constantinople with a mighty army; but this Kiy was a prince in his own race and fought many countries; he lived with the Constantinople tsar in peace and brotherhood, and received great honor from him and from all. He went to the Bulgars and came to the Danube, and loved the place and founded the city, though he sat there with his kin, and they would not let him live there, always making war; the city is still called Kievets by the Danites living there. Also upon the Volozhski and Kamski Bulgars he went and won and came back to his city Kiev, and that he died there; and his brothers Chok and Horiv and their sister Lybid there died". / Nikon's Chronicle /
From this fragment we see that the chronicle definitely speaks about the Kiy's campaign against the Bulgars and that the "Kievets" fortress was a subject of a fight, and repeatedly. Obviously, the gravitation of the Kievan Slavs to the Danube was long-standing and Svetoslav's campaigns were a natural continuation of this trend. It is also interesting to note that the chronicler had a lot of information about Kiy: he knew that Kiy fought with different countries, and among them he names Danube, then Volga and Kama Bulgars, so he was not a small tribal prince, but a representative of the state, whose interests stretched from the Danube to the Kama. In other words, we have before us the same Kievan Rus, approximately to the same extent as in the time of Askold. The names of these 3 brothers are mentioned in the "Songs of the Gamayun Bird" as sons of Oreos, grandsons of Dazhdbog.
To this day in Kiev, under the Khreshchatyk, there is a small river named Lybid. The river was removed into the underground collector only in the XIX century, since some sources mention that "people and horses drowned on Khreshchatyk.
456 - in Golun a horse-led convention took place, on which Schek and Horiv were elected grand princes, and the supreme voivode was chosen Lybied, who a year later accomplished a campaign to Tsaregrad and came back with a great tribute and a necessary for the Rus interstate treaty. At the same convention it was decided to rename the trading and craft center on the Nephra ("not straight", i.e. "peaceful river") Busovgrad into Kiev. The name Busa was known to the author of "The Tale of Igor's Campaign", who recalled "the time of Busovo". The capital of the state was Golun, the approaches to which in Rus were guarded by three fortresses: there, where now the village Mezhirych, stood the most powerful Roden, to which then reached the spring flood of the Dnieper, upstream the Ros in the place of the present Korsun-Shevchenko - Rosin and further as a shield Golun - a nine-fold fortress Gradiz, the present Boguslav. / A.S. Ivanchenko.
Very interesting is the note in the "Vlesova Book": apparently there was a time when two Slavic tribes departed from the region of Kiev to the west, and settled in the Carpathian Mountains: "moved Chorev and Sheh from the rest, and sat down before the Carpathian Mountains and there created other cities, other people had tribesmen, other people had great wealth ...". Chorev were Croats, Shech - apparently Czechs. Kiy is also mentioned: "and se kye died for tridensetes laty rulers nyny and by the seme beyashch lebedyan..."; translation: "and here kye died, thirty years ruling us; and after him was a lebedyan...". Lebedian - the person is not known in a history, but the Greek sources have kept a name "the commander of Swan" in northern Black Sea Coast and the name of his state "Lebedija". It is difficult to say whether Lebedian was the son of Swan or whether it is one and the same person. Further it says that Lebedian, aka Slaver, reigned for 20 years, then was Veren from Velikograd (20 years), and then Serezhen (10 years). In those times, according to the "Velesov Book", the princes were elected, and only then began to pass power by inheritance. Mentioned more than once the city of Golun, or Golyn, of which our history knows nothing. The name unwittingly suggests that the term "kolun", also used many times, is the same. And perhaps the expression "Ruskolun" is explained as Rus Kolun. And this, in turn, coincides with the altered (charomute) word "Roksolan" by foreigners.
"Hrvat beriai sve voya only ina ishchehu, seleneshe z rusev a tako z ne odelenetsia land, but z thema utvore Ruskolane, ki boi usendes o kyev...", i.e.: "The Croatian (a tribe of Croats) took his sons then, looking for another part (land), settled with Russ... And with them he created Ruskolan, who settled near Kievan".
Interesting is the mention of the father of Ori, who had three sons, who divided into three parts and formed Ruskolan. "...from Otser one clan of Slven, and by (o)tseo three sons (e)he divided into three parts, and so became O Ruskolans, and in the vein the seventeenth was divided into two tabotva about boroseh yakweh being rosted into two and then named soon Desentes...", i.e..: "...under the father of Ore was one glorious people (or Slavic), and after the father (Ore) three of his sons divided into three parts, and so Ruskolan was formed, and the crowns, which were divided into two parts ... so that soon there were ten parts."
There is a passage that explains who the Ants were. "...Iakozhe za schase Mezenmiru tako from the Ants", - in the time of Prince Mezenmir the Russians were "Ants". On the reverse side of the same plaque is again a passage that confirms the following: "...beo ante biachom by Ruskolani i dreivle biachom Russe... And the anthieu of Mezensmir is victorious against the year...". So, Russ, living in the area called Ruskolan', called Antes, were from ancient times Russ ... Antes Mezenmir won victories over Goths.
477 - Odoacre, leader of the Rusyns and other tribes, captures the city of Yuvava and kills St. Maximus and his disciples. In Austria, in Salzburg (Juwava in antiquity), in the catacombs of St. Peter's church are the remains of St. Maximus and his disciples, who were murdered by the Rusyn leader Odoacer in 477. This is witnessed by a plaque, on which is written in Latin: "Lord's summer 477. By Odoacre, the leader of the Rusyns (Routenians), the Geppids, Goths, Ungars and Geruls, raging against the Church of God, the blessed Maximus with his 50 companions, fleeing in this cave because of their confession of faith, have thrown down from the rock, and the province of Norik was devastated by the sword and fire".
Odoacer's attack on Juva was one of a series of campaigns led by a whole coalition of tribes when Rome's power was shaken and when it fell under the blows of the "barbarians. The last emperor of Rome, Romulus Augustus, was deposed. It is interesting to note that in 1648 Hetman Bogdan Khmelnitsky addressed to the Cossacks with a proclamation on the occasion of the war with Poland, in which he called upon them to follow the example of their glorious and bellicose ancestors, who had had Rome for 14 years under the leadership of Odonacer (Odoacer). Thus, as early as 1648 the Ukrainian Cossacks officially considered Odoacer and his Ruthenians their ancestors. And this, of course, became known to them not thanks to the stone slab in Salzburg. This tradition was so strong that when Bogdan Khmelnitsky died in 1657, Samylo Zorka, general clerk of the Zaporozhian army, standing at his coffin, said: "My dear leader! Ancient Russian Odonacer!" In other words, he compared Khmelnitsky's importance to that of Odoacer in antiquity.
500 is the approximate time of the reign of Prince Vandal, who was married to the Varyanka Advinda, a beautiful and wise woman, about whom much is told in the ancient songs. The Vandal tribe is considered by many to be Germanic, but the writings of S. Lesny deal with evidence of its Slavicness. Note here that the name itself is clearly Slavic: "vand", "vyand", "vend" - these are only variants of the same root. The Western nations, on the other hand, called the Slavs "Vend". Vandal had three sons: Izbor, Vladimir and Stolposvyat, to each of them was built a city named after them. Vandal allegedly lived in the capital and lived to a ripe old age. On Vandal's death Izbor was made governor of the capital. Subsequently he and Stolposvyat died, and Vladimir reigned over the whole land.
Vandal, ruling over the Slavs, "went everywhere to the north, east and west, by sea and land" with his armies. After defeating many nations, he returned to his capital. Then Vandal sent westward his kinsmen, the subject princes Gardarik and Gunigar, with a great army of Slavs, Russians and Chudes, who, after conquering the lands of other peoples, didn't return but settled down there. The mention of the Chudes clearly shows that Vandal was reigning somewhere in the north, probably in the region of Novgorod. The names Gardorik and Gunigar are extremely reminiscent of the Scandinavian names of Polotsk and Kiev. Vandal became angry with the rebellious, conquered their lands, and gave them to his sons. It is interesting to note that Joachim's Chronicle is not alone in this legendary part - Polish sources report the same.
500 is the time of the arrival and reign in Britain of the legendary King Arthur, whose name in medieval European literature is associated with legends, historical chronicles, and chivalric novels, united by the belonging of the heroes to the brotherhood of the Round Table. British myths say that King Arthur fought the Christian Saxons. Several movies have been made on the subject. But the fact is that in the sixth century the Saxons were not yet Christians. They adopted Christianity only under pressure from the armies of Charlemagne in the IX century, and not all of them. The Saxons were fully Christianized by the middle of the 10th century. British mythology holds that the famous king was the son of Uther Pendragon (the dragon-head) by the Duchess of Cornwall, Ingraine. But then, why didn't he have a British name at all? "Ar" from Old Russian means "land," and tours were called in those days wild bulls, the ancestors of modern cows. Therefore "Artur" translates as "the man who came from the land of Tours", or - the inhabitant of the boundless steppes of Eurasia. Many British scholars have paid attention to the Old Russian name of the king himself and the names of his knights and came to the conclusion that King Arthur and his men came to Britain from the Southern Russian steppes. Interestingly, the time between the death of Uther Pendragon and the arrival of the famous Arthur to the throne is not described in the King Arthur myths. Apparently, the British myths have been nicely edited by someone. And now a little about King Arthur's famous Round Table. According to myth, it was Merlin himself who gave the king the idea. But in the South Russian walls, for centuries, the political order of that very highest democracy, where only the worthy get to govern society, has reigned. The Cossack circle still operates in the South Russian lands and in Siberia. King Arthur and his knights managed to revive for a short time the basic principles of the forgotten in Western Europe Golden Age in Britain. That is why his reign is remembered not only in Britain, but also in France and even in Germany.
The Sumerian myth of Atraharsis says that some of the opponents of the white Gods from the planet Nibiru, the Anunnaki, having lost the war to the Gods, retired to the stars, but left their children somewhere in the north. Aren't they the ones the dragon legends speak of? Yes, and the name Uther Pendragon is ambiguous, especially against the background of the famous Chinese Dragoole clan.
552 - emergence of the Türkic Kaganate (552-745), founded in Central Asia by a tribal union of Turks. In 460 one of the Hun tribes fell under the power of Juan-Juan and was relocated from Eastern Turkestan to Altai, where the union of local tribes, which took the name "Türk", was formed. In 545 the Turks defeated the Uigurs, who led an association of tribes of Central Asia - the Turku, and in 551 - the Juan-Juan. Leader of Turks Bumyn has proclaimed itself Hagan. By 555 all peoples of Central Asia, including Kidans in Western Manchuria and Yenisei Kirghiz, were under the authority of Turks. With the active intervention of the Chinese emperors, the Turkic Kaganate disintegrated into mutually hostile eastern (Central Asian) and western (Central Asian) parts.
But interestingly enough, the Turkic language is spoken by: Yakuts, Khakasses, Tuvans, Siberian Tatars, Karagases, Kyrgyz, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, Uighurs, Turkmens, Dzungars, Turks, Kazan and Astrakhan Tatars, and Chuvashs. All the ethnic groups are completely different culturally and anthropologically. Where are the Turks themselves? In the first volume of the History of Siberia, the chapter "Siberian Turks in the VI-X c." is written: "The tribes - Tele and Turku - played the main role in the history of Central Asia and South Siberia. In their origin they were connected with the earlier tribal unions of the Huns and Dinlins. The Dinlins were a branch of the Huns, though they were at enmity with them for a long time. The annals call the Tele tribes direct descendants of the Huns, and their language is recognized similar to the Hunnish, though with a slight difference. Sometimes the Tele are referred to as a separate tribe of the Huns." This is also mentioned in the Chinese annals. The skulls from numerous Hunnish burials speak of the same. They all belong to the Europoid race! And at the same time, one part of them spoke Türkic, and the other part Ugrian. The Türkic language, according to the Taoist and Buddhist Chinese chronicles, was created during the time of the great dynasties of Huangdi and Yangdi. In the same way that Arabic was created in the Arabian steppes and Latin in the Apennine Peninsula. It turns out that this Esperanto of the East was created so that the disparate and endlessly warring tribes of the white, red and yellow Mongoloid races could understand each other. So that the wars between them would stop, and they could unite their forces against the Chinese Great Khan expansion, threatening their complete destruction. Which actually happened.
And do you know that the Turkic language is close to some of the languages of the North American Indians, for example the Dakota tribe. Apparently the Dakotas once lived in China and went north and then to America. And if you compare the Türkic with the Old Russian, Old Tibetan and some of the North American Indian languages, you can come to interesting conclusions.
553 - At the Second Council of Constantinople, the Roman government officially declared it illegal to believe or teach the concept of reincarnation. Refusal to follow this edict could lead to banishment and excommunication from the Church, which in those days was almost tantamount to death. The edict read: "If anyone believes in the inconceivable existence of the soul before birth and in the most ridiculous rebirth after death, he must be anathematized." This position was later consolidated in 1274, when the Council of Lyon decreed that after death the soul goes either to Heaven or Hell. Then in 1439 the Council of Florence reaffirmed this edict in almost the same words. In the first century, however, the Jewish historian Josephus Flavius wrote that the Pharisees believed in reincarnation. According to Josephus, the souls of people who had lived positive lives were "put away in other bodies" to have "the power to revive and live again."
512 - The Turks attack the sedentary Avar people, forcing them to move beyond the Volga. As a result, a peaceful people turns into a cruel and ruthless one.
560 - emergence of the Avar Kaganate, founded by the commander, khan Bayan, and representing a system of military fortresses, with the main one on the banks of the Tissa River. It was formed by the Avars, Turkic-speaking tribes, on the territory of Pannonia, a Roman province that occupied part of the territory of modern Hungary, Yugoslavia, and Austria. In the south the power of the Avar Kaganate extended to Constantinople, in the west to the river Ens (in present-day Austria).
The Avars were a settled people engaged in agriculture. They are the descendants of Asiatic people mixed with Aryan. But their faith and culture was not Aryan. They were shamanists, and quite cruel. In the early 6th century, the Turks ousted the Avars from their lands. The Avars cross the Volga and for the first time used the scorched earth tactics. They burn the crops and kill the livestock of the local population, dooming them to starvation. Such actions were bound to return. The Aubras (Avars) are exterminated by the Don and Kuban Cossacks from the south and by Charlemagne's empire from the west to the last man.
600 is the approximate time of the emergence of the Merovingian and later Carolingian Empire of the Frankish state, founded in Gaul by the Franks, a group of Germanic tribes living along the lower and middle Rhine in the third century. After the Treaty of Verdun in 843 between the sons of the dead king, the Frankish state was divided into three separate states: the East Frankish state (Germany), the West Frankish state (France), Italy and Burgundy (Lothair's state, the Kingdom of Italy).
609 - Having received a revelation from Allah, Mohammed preached a new faith in Mecca. In 630-631 Muslims, under Mohammed's leadership, subjugated Mecca and much of Arabia, and Mohammed became the head of a theocratic state. The monotheistic religion of Islam appears, and its followers are Muslims.
626 - Russians attack Tsargrad. In the Tiflis manuscript we find: "Hagan put his warriors on boats hollowed out of solid wood, which in their "barbarian" language was called "monoxvilo". Hagan docked at Tsargrad and besieged it from land and sea. His warriors were mighty and very skilled. There were so many of them that there were 10 Russians per one Tsargradian. Battering rams and siege machines began to operate. Hagan demanded them to surrender and abandon their false faith in Christ. But his threats had no effect, at the walls of the city there was a terrible skirmish. The freedom of Constantinople was already hanging by a thread. Meanwhile, Patriarch Sergius (610 to 639) sent a huge amount of money to the Hagan. The gift was accepted, but freedom was promised only to those who would leave the city in beggar's clothes and go wherever they wanted. Not having broken through the walls, "the Russians, having lost hope of taking the city, got into their "monoxvilo" and returned home. Heraclius, who at that time was defending from Persians on the river Phasis, was pleased with the departure of the Russians".
The account in the manuscript of the attack is extremely realistic and accurate. Although it has elements of ecclesiastical rhetoric, the picture of events is described truthfully. The attack was launched from the sea. It was in the rooks that the Russian army was brought in. And then the siege of the city from the sea and land began. The number of troops was much, if much greater than the forces of the Tsargrad garrison. What was to happen happened: the support of 12.000 people, the garrison and the powerful walls of the city were so strong that they broke the stubbornness of the Russians. Moreover, the huge sum of money received from Patriarch Sergius obviously played its part.
Usually this attack is attributed to the Avar Kagan. It does not change the essence of the matter, because Avars at that time dominated over Slavs (Avar Kaganate). In case of wars, the Avars used their armed forces. However, the Slavs also had a considerable independence. It is evident from the fact that the Greeks, concluding a treaty with the Avars, stipulated the right, in the case of an attack on them by the Slavs, to cut them off, and it would not be considered a breach of peace with respect to the Avar Kaganate.
744 - Taking advantage of the weakening of their northern neighbors, the Chinese move over the Great Wall and begin to settle lands that do not belong to them. Then one of the western principalities of Tartarya sends its troops to the East, not waiting for the Tartarian government to assemble a large force. From Gatlar, and from Khara-Khor, an army moved towards the Chinese, and attacked the Tartarian troops themselves, defeating them utterly. This principality was immediately dubbed by historians "the country of Uighurs". Immediately a myth was made up that the "Mongoloid Uighurs," once part of the union of the Tele tribes, after the weakening of the Türkic Kaganate, finally gained their independence. But why then Uigurs did not descend on their Turku oppressors, but attacked the Chinese armies? There is no answer to that question. The Uighurs took over all of Western China, all of the Gobi, the kingdom of the Kidans all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Everywhere in the Chinese annals the Uighurs appear, not one of the principalities of the Northern Empire. Again the familiar picture: a "semi-nomadic wild tribe" smashes a "powerful centralized state. And no one cares why his army is armed and trained no worse than the Chinese. Everything is explained by two words, "Uyghur Kaganat.
But the fact is that the ancestors of the Uigurs are the descendants of the white people of the Pacific, that part of the white population of the Moo continent, which migrated to Asia. It was the core of the Uyghur ethnos. We are talking about the tribes of the goddess Danu. The Uigur legends still retain the memory of their ancient homeland, which went to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. That is why the Uigurs created their own principality in Central Asia and always lived in isolation. Nowadays, the Uighur can hardly be distinguished from the Chinese, all that remains is memory.
754 - Blossoming Khazar Khaganate, which occupied the territory of the Northern Caucasus, the Azov Sea region, most of the Crimea, the steppe and forest-steppe regions to the Dnieper. The device of the Khazar state was as follows: Khazar elite consisted of Judeans, and ordinary people were Christian toilers. The army was drawn from Muslims, and it was hired. Khazaria was created for the establishment of the northern silk road to Europe, and for a powerful military pressure on the Vedic Rus from the East.
775 - an attack of the Russian prince Bravlin on the southern coast of Crimea. In the "Life" of St. Stefan Surozhsky there is quite interesting data about the attack of the Russian prince: "After the death of the saint a few years ago, came a great Russian army from Novgorod, a prince Bravlin, strong as a bell". He captured the whole Crimean coastal strip between Korsun (Chersonesos) and Kerch, and took Sudak (Surozh or Sugdaia) by storm.
It is doubtful, that such a long campaign to the Crimea could be made by the Novgorod prince. This place has a very simple explanation: we are talking here not about Novgorod on Volkhov, and about Neapolis Greeks in the area of this Simferopol, which, undoubtedly, was called Novgorod by the Slavs. Translations of the names of cities in different nations - a common thing. For example, among Greeks the city is called Kefalonitsa, among Slavs it is called Glavinitsa, among Polabian Slavs - Stargorod, and among Germanic conquerors - Mecklenburg. In those days there were many "Novgorod" everywhere. The attack did not take place thousands of versts away, but was only the moment of centuries-old struggle of "barbarians" from the north with the Greeks of the southern coast of Crimea. This struggle is perfectly reflected in the "Vlesova Book".
820 - The attack of the Russians on Amastrid. "The Vitae" of St. George of Amsterdam preserved us the following information about Russia: "There was an invasion of the barbarians of Russia, a people, as everyone knows, in the highest degree savage and rude, bearing in themselves no trace of humanity. Brutal customs, brutal affairs, revealing the bloodthirstiness already one kind, in anything else, that is peculiar to people, not finding such pleasure, as in murder, they - this pernicious and in practice, and by name people, - having started ruin from Propondita and having visited other coast, has reached finally and to fatherland sacred (i.e. Amastrid on southern coast of Black sea) killing mercilessly any floor and age ".
We shall leave on conscience of the author rhetoric about inhumanity Russ which, probably, had other background.
837 is a possible year of birth of Prophetic Oleg. Year of his birth should be connected to symbols or totems Horse and Snake, and still with a symbol of Oath, the Law, contracts, - in fact in STY (The Story of Time Years) under 907 and 912th it is told much about oaths and the contracts which it has concluded with Greeks. In the Avestan calendar there is a year of Mithra, which is just connected with oaths, law, treaties, and the totem of this year is just the Horse ("Horse of Mithra"). In the ninth century, the years of Mithras were 805, 837, 869. Of these, only 837 could be suitable. Then in the year of a calling to Russia (862) Oleg was 25 years old, in the year of reigning in Kiev (882) he was 45 years old, in the year of Volhv prophecy (903) - 66, and he died 75 years old, in 912. And what is the totem of the year 837 according to the Eastern calendar? - A snake! That's how it all came together. But it is interesting, the Arabian and Khorezm annals name it new Russian Hagan.
838 - a nomadic state of the Magyars (self-name of the Hungarians), surrounded on all sides by enemies (Arabs, Turkic-Khuzes), reaching the southern slopes of the Urals, intended to declare war on Khazaria. But the Judean rulers were not going to war with the Ugrians. They gave the Magyar rulers gold and sent them through the lands of the Kaganate to the west beyond the Volga and Don, to the Russian state of Kiev. In 838 Magyar crossed the river Ra, and came to Don. Until winter they tramped on the left bank of the Don. When the ice on the river strengthened, the Magyars managed to break through the Russian defense. In the summer of 839 the Magyars defeated the tribe of the Savirs-Northmen and the tribe of the Polans. Their commander Almus, according to the Hungarian chronicle, in the fall of 839 besieged and took Kiev.
The Central Asian Pechenegs, realizing what the Ugrians did beyond the Don, moved west. They declared war against both Khazaria and the Magyars. In the year 842 by fire and sword from east to west went all Khazaria, and crossing the Don, brought down all their power on the Ugric. Under the onslaught of the Pechenegs, the Magyars rolled westward again. This time, to the Danube, to the half-Christian Moravia. In a short time the Asiatic Pechenegs took over the whole of the northern Black Sea coast. They immediately entered into an alliance with the Ante clans, who survived the invasion of Magyars, and together with them began building cities and fortresses against Khazaria. This explains why Prophetic Oleg, immediately after he was killed by a Christianized Kiev prince Askold, entered into a long-term alliance with the rulers of Pechenegs against the Khazars.
850 - The Byzantine missionary Velizarius, having visited the Novgorod land, wrote thus about the Slovenes and Rusyns: "Orthodox Slovenes and Rusyns are wild people, and their life is wild and godless. Men and naked virgins lock themselves together in the hot heated heath and torture their bodies, whipping themselves mercilessly with wood twigs till the weariness, and after that they jump into the ice-hole or snow-drift and, getting cold, they go back into the heath to torture their bodies". Kiev prince Yaroslav the Wise gave his daughter Yaroslavna in marriage to the king of the French. Yaroslavna became the queen of France. And what she wrote to her father: "Father, why do you hate me? And he sent her to that dirty village, where there is no place to wash". Soap did not appear in Europe until the twelfth century. Marie Antoinette only bathed twice in her life: once before her wedding and once.
860 - a campaign of Russ headed by Askold and Dir to Tsargrad. Let's address to the statement of what was a campaign, relying on the first class source - the certificate of patriarch Photios, the participant of events in Tsargrad and besides the first hierarch of Greeks which in any way it is impossible to suspect in distortion of events in favor of Russ: the campaign Russ has been made not for the purpose of plunder, but first of all as the revenge act for murder and handling in slavery for debts of several Russ, living and working in Tsargrad. In two speeches, uttered by Photios (one at the moment of a siege of Tsargrad, another directly after leaving Russ), he sharply reproached Greeks in immorality in general and in their unreasonably bad attitude to Russ. In places in his speeches one can feel quite certain allusions to circumstances unknown to us, but perfectly understood by contemporaries. As far as it is possible to guess, these allusions concern the emperor Michael, whose name Photios does not dare to name directly. Obviously, the emperor himself took part in the offence caused to the Russians.
Assault Russ was completely unexpected and has plunged Tsargrad in a condition of a full panic as emperor, an army and fleet were far, on campaign, and city remained, in effect, defenseless. Photius said, "Remember that hour, obnoxious and bitter, when barbarian ships sailed in our sight, bringing something fierce and murderous in their wake? When that sea, when it subsided, spread out its backbone with trepidation, making their voyage pleasant and quiet, while the tumultuous waves of strife lifted us up? When did they pass before the city and threaten it with their swords outstretched? When the darkness was upon the trembling minds, and the ears were opened to one message only: "The barbarians have already climbed over the walls of the city, the city is already taken by the enemy?" ... "And how could we not suffer terrible troubles, when we were murderously settling accounts with those who owed us something small, insignificant." The reproach is clear.
Despite the absence of troops and the emperor, Tsargrad was still not taken. Mainly because of the high and powerful walls that saved it. The head of the garrison was not at the height of his position. Russians, in order to seize the city, dug a tunnel under the walls and from the other side poured a shaft from which they intended to move to the walls of the city. While they laid siege to the city, others put to fire and sword everything in the nearest and farthest suburbs of Tsargrad, which had many rich summer houses not far from the walls. "...River streams turned to blood. Some wells and reservoirs could not be recognized, because they were filled through the top with bodies..." From these words of Photius it is clear that there was some kind of bacchanalia of murder and destruction in general. In short, there was a classic pogrom. There was a terrible revenge, a passion to do as much harm as possible, for only revenge could fill the wells to the top with corpses.
The detachment of Russians was not particularly significant. On the most maximum data, the number of ships reached 360, on the minimum - 200. Discrepancy probably speaks that 360 is figure of all ships Russ which attacked not only Tsargrad, but also on coast and islands of Marmara Sea, 200 is quantity of the ships besieging only Tsargrad. Since a rook usually contained 40 people, the largest number of soldiers, including auxiliary laborers, who besieged Tsargrad was 8 thousand. Naturally, such a detachment could do nothing against the powerful walls of the city: special machines, structures, etc., were needed. To lift the spirits of the population, Photios arranged a solemn prayer with the riza of Our Lady, which was carried on the walls of the city. Soon afterwards the Russians disappeared, lifting the siege. Their leaving has been explained by intercession of Virgin. However about any storm which has swept away Prussian courts, Photios does not mention at all. As it spoke about the begun illnesses the sudden disappearance Russ can have also other, more real explanation. Russ, having plundered to the full and having satisfied the revenge, have left, for to do, in effect, there was nothing, diseases began, and meanwhile armies of the emperor or fleet could approach.
Results of a campaign were considered and can be considered in different ways. On the formal side, Russ has failed: they have not taken cities. But in reality they achieved everything they wanted. They took many times more revenge and looted so much, that it hardly fit into the boats: the richest suburbs of the city and dachas delivered huge booty. The Venetian chronicle expressly says that the Russians returned "in triumph".
860 - Gostomysl, the legendary leader of the Novgorod Slovenes, the first prince or governor, died.
"But the people suffered a great strain from the Vikings and sent to Burya and begged him for a son, Gostomysl, to be made prince of Velikiye Grad. And when Gostomysl came to power, both of the Varangians were beaten and driven out, and the tribute to the Varangians was repudiated, and marched upon him and won, and built a city in the name of his elder son Vabor by the sea; and peace was made with the Varangians, and there was silence over all the land. This Gostomysl was a man both brave and wise, terrifying to all his neighbors, and beloved by his people, for justice and righteousness' sake. For this reason all the people of the district read him, and give him gifts and tributes, buying peace from him.
According to the Novgorod chronicle, Gostomysl sent an embassy to the island of Ruyan. Just there, in Korenice-town, lived his daughter Umila with her husband. Ruyan was always an island of the Lutyches, not the Obodrites. And then, to invite to the lands of eastern Russia was better not Polabian Serbs or Bodricians, namely the Lutyches. Only their name alone inspired with horror the whole Europe. People of the fierce wolves, people with hearts knowing no mercy and fear. Gostomysl applied a powerful psychological device. After the arrival to the land of Novgorod Slovenes of the Lutish army, both Khazars and Byzantines lost any desire to deal with them.
861 - St. Cyril found in Korsun a Psalter and a Gospel written in "Rousk scriptures". Cyril, on his way to the Khazar mission, arrived in Korsun (Chersonesos) at the end of 860. Here he met a Ruthenian who had a Psalter and a Gospel written in "Rousk scriptures". In the "Life" of Cyril we find: "...and having reached Khorsun... find that Gospel and the Psalter, written in "Swiss writs", and find a man, uttering that conversation, and having conversed with him, and having received the power of speech, applying to his conversation the differences of the writs, and praying to God, he soon begins honoring and saying, and being astonished at it...".
So, Constantine the Philosopher (Cyril), even before the trip to Moravia in 863, came across the question, which he had to answer in two years, namely about the Slavic writing. This question had already been solved before him by an unknown Ruthenian, who even had two solid church books written in Russian script. The most improbable assumptions were made about this. It was even considered that the letter "p" was missing here: "Prusk script" should be read! The horror at the thought that the Russians in ancient times could be literate, drove people to complete stupefaction.
Having seen in 860 full suitability of the Slavic alphabet invented by some Rusyn, in 863 he used it for translation of the liturgical books intended for the Moravians, having included in the Rusyn alphabet a number of purely Greek sounds, without which, as it seemed to him, it cannot be done without. It is absolutely clear, that Rusyn in Chersonesos was not the first and the only inventor of the Slavic alphabet: before him and in other places similar attempts had been made before. There are a lot of hints in the history. The important thing is that by 860 the culture of the Russians was so high that there were books written in their own.
