Reply #56: What I mean is that he doesn't even understand the 'conventional' history [View All]

[muriel_volestrangler]

so his analysis of it is rubbish.

Here's some descriptions, and links where stuff is available on the Internet, to early English tax records.

"it was assumed that "written" English history starts from 60 B.C. when Julius Caesar conquered the British islands"

No. Julius Caesar invaded Britain twice, in 55 and 54 BC; on both occasions he withdreaw before the end of the year. Britain was conquered by Claudius (though not personally) in 43 AD.

From 445 A.D. we see six kingdoms on the English land. Each of these kingdoms has it's own dynastic stream of rulers. Namely they are

Brittany = Britain,
Saxons = Kent,
Sussex = South Saxons,
Wessex = West Saxons,
Essex = East Saxons, Mercia.

These six kingdoms exist up to 828 A.D. when they all are destroyed in a war and instead of them one kingdom is established - the kingdom of England. It is the time of Egbert, who becomes the first king of united England. The time of about 830 A.D. could be called, following <6>,<7>, as the end of Six Kingdoms.

Rubbish. The Anglo-Saxon kingdoms developed gradually, and merged and fell at different times; Brittany is not Britain, though the words derive from the same root; he has left out East Anglia and Northumberland, from the major kingdoms, though these had divisions at times too.

Look at his 'parallelism tables' for English 640-830 (rounded down):

English reigns  Byzantine
29              16 
2               13 
12              42
2               7
39              17 
13              0    (Leo II, who he misses out)
14              17
0               27
30              9
16              38
38

See? Those are more like random numbers than anything. He has to insert blanks, and miss out 1 emperor, to try and get them to match - and that still relies on "16=9" etc.

These dynasties do not 'duplicate' each other; his theory, and math, is bunk. Fomenko has either lost his mind, or is a con artist trying to sell a book, like von Daniken.
