Fomenko’s New Chronology

Fomenko’s New Chronology is a theory that the dawn of human civilization took place around the 10th century CE. This theory is mainly based on the use of astronomy and textual analysis. Fomenko’s New Chronology was one of the main reasons that I created Ctruth. I, Stephen Sorensen, wanted to validate or invalidate Fomenko’s information. I wanted to see what parts of it had merit and what parts didn’t have merit. Even today, I still want to see what parts have merit and what parts don’t.

While I’ve come a long way in determining the extent of its validity, I’m still working on a comprehensive analysis of it and I encourage people who are interested in the humanities and the sciences to join in as well. Fomenko’s New Chronology is almost 50 years in the making. My serious studies into it really began when I made this website on January 2nd, 2019. Since then, my studies into Fomenko’s New Chronology have become increasingly more critical and rigorous than when I first began.

There is a good deal of false information in existence about Fomenko’s New Chronology (FNC). Three types of people who created/spread this false info are:
1 – People telling lies to discourage others from developing interest in FNC.
2 – People claiming that things which are not based upon FNC are indeed based upon FNC.
3 – People unintentionally misrepresenting the arguments and information of FNC.

Early on in my endeavor to explore and understand Fomenko’s New Chronology, I occasionally fell into that 3rd category above. I didn’t make too many mistakes, but there were a few things I had tried to talk about with others that I didn’t understand as well as I do now.

Anatoly Fomenko (1945-present) began his research on chronology in 1973, was publishing it in scientific magazines in the 1980’s, and began publishing it in books in the 1990’s. Fomenko argues that three main shifts took place in the dating of historical events, shifts of roughly 333 years, 1053 years, and 1778 years^[p.xiii]. The original analysis was conducted on 15 chronological tables and 228 fundamental primary sources which covered the all basic events of world history between 4000 BC and 1800 AD. It resulted in the creation of Fomenko’s Global Chronological Diagram (GCD)^[p.8].

The art used for the backgrounds of the images below was done Fomenko himself. Later, I edited his art to color them and add the texts.

The six main sections that I created for articles on Fomenko’s New Chronology are:

“I cannot at all agree with the hypothesis of Morozov, according to which most literary works of antiquity are fabrications of the Apocrypha of the Renaissance, which would mean that what we know today as ancient history is actually the result of premeditated falsification. … My standpoint is different, namely that, due to the results of the application of the new dating methods, almost all surviving ancient documents (of antiquity or the Middle Ages) are authentic and written for the purpose of perpetuating real events rather than leading future historians astray.”
