We are accustomed quite well to thinking that the events described in the Bible - and especially in the Old Testament - date back to an epoch so distant that it can hardly be called "historical" in the usual sense.

We seem to know everything there is to know about these times and these characters. Could all of what we know be untrue? The big news is that it can, and is - the extensive research conducted by numerous Biblical scholars notwithstanding. Although the good faith of the latter can be doubted in quite a few cases, even the most scrupulous of scientists who ever had to tackle the gigantic array of data contained in the Bible were basing their research on the existing chronology - too obvious and self-implying to strike anyone as untrue. A group of mathematicians who have used the newest statistical methods to analyze the Bible from an altogether different standpoint, having revised the consensual chronology completely prior to that.The results are astonishing to say the least.Biblical Jerusalem was in fact located on the Bosporus and known as Constantinople and that the Biblical kingdoms of Israel and Judah can be identified as the mediaeval Roman Empire - the familiar characters transform into their mediaeval doppelgangers.

It is common knowledge that the Classical Age was followed by many centuries of utter stagnation and decline with virtually nothing happening but wars and famine and the destruction of the priceless ancient monuments.For excerpt, TOC, 'Search Inside' and reviews click on http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/2913621058/tag=theringofthen-20
Then, during the Renaissance, the Classical authors re-appear from oblivion, Latin and Greek become resurrected as the intelligentsia Esperanto of the Middle Ages, numerous manuscripts re-appear from oblivion to be copied, enter wide circulation, and vanish again, never to be found.
How preposterous would it be to suggest that there were no Dark Ages to separate the antiquity from the Renaissance - that the "Re-naissance" was in fact the naissance of the Western European culture as we know it? It does contradict everything that we may ever have learnt about history. However, new methods offered by empirical statistics and developed by Anatoly Fomenko, the Russian mathematician, and his colleagues, provide plenty of evidence to support the theory that the Dark Ages are a phantom.
