This book continues the series of publications of the group who call themselves Chronotron. The three unconventional authors, two of them the authors of the current book, attack what they hold to be common historical misconceptions, and create an alternative history of all parts of the world, including Old Rus. Why did Russian chroniclers not record any lunar or solar eclipses? Why is the first Russian calendar, including the Church holidays, related to the Roman rather than the Byzantine calendar? Why did Kievan monks never mention the crusades or the capture of Jerusalem in 1099? Why are many old Russian words derived from Latin but not Greek words? The book is a collection of essays on vexing questions and controversial theories in Russian history, each of the authors offers a new explanation and new chronology of the events in question. This book partly repeats the books "Iavlenie Rusi" and "T`ma Gor`kikh Istin...Rus". Other books from the series of the group Chronotron are also available.
