At the end of 2019, the news appeared in some media: followers of the pseudo -historical theory of Academician Fomenko founded a museum in Yaroslavl. We checked whether he actually exists and whether his state supports.
The fact that such a museum will appear in the Yaroslavl region, back in January 2019 told In the television program "Vesti - Yaroslavl" produced by the local department of the VGTRK. In the plot, the project was called “the only multimedia museum in Russia” and emphasized: the new chronology changes the idea of the role of Yaroslavl in the history of the country. The creator of the concept Anatoly Fomenko in his comment noted that, according to him, Yaroslavl is actually the great Novgorod, one of the capitals of Ancient Rus'. Neither this nor similar plot On the “First Yaroslavl” channel, the authors did not clarify that the new chronology was recognized as false scientists, and its supporters were criticized by the vast majority of scientists.
The concept of the new chronology became known in the early 80s thanks to Anatoly Fomenko. He is really a professor at Moscow State University and Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, only specializes on multidimensional variational calculus, differential geometry and several other areas of mathematics. Like its main co -authors, Fomenko did not receive a historical education. A significant impact on the development of theory Provided The works of Nikolai Morozov, a revolutionary and the author of the idea of the total falsification of the history of mankind, according to the coincidence of a native of the Yaroslavl province.
Supporters of theory claim that our ideas about history are false, and call for their radical revision. According to Fomenko and his like -minded people, the history of the most ancient civilizations of the West and East has been almost completely invented, and events until the 18th century cannot be described scientifically. In the last Allegedly guilty Representatives of the Romanov dynasty, who, with the coming to power, began to develop a new national idea and adjust the facts about the past. Therefore, according to the new chronology, it is impossible to analyze the annals and other written certificates - they are falsified. In their argument, Fomenko, together with co -authors and like -minded people, rely, as they themselves declare, on linguistic, statistical and astronomical methods. Work of supporters of the new chronology Publishing Until now, among them-“The Virgin was born in Rostov the Great”, “Incas came to America from Rus'-Horde” and “The first Kaaba was in Rus' near Kazan.” Website New chronology is constantly updated and available in nine languages.
The vast majority of modern scientists recognize the theory of Fomenko False -scientist. The main argument of opponents is that the new chronology ignores the research of linguists, archaeologists, numismatists, anthropologists, art historians, representatives of natural scientific disciplines and other specialists. Scientists are especially outraged by the desire of Fomenko and his co -authors to ignore all the facts that do not fit into their concept, and explain this to falsifications in the past. Although Fomenko often gives his own linguistic constructions in the works, the outstanding linguist Andrei Zaliznyak Evaluated them as "at the level of the most primitive and ignorant amateurism." Scientists Criticized and astronomical methods and calculations of supporters of the new chronology. Professionals, representatives of different disciplines, combined their coming in the collections of Antifomenko, the first of which was published Back in 2000.
Calculating history is an important topic in public discussions in Russia, which is followed not only by experts and scientists, but also by the state. Since 1998 exists Commission for the fight against pseudoscience in the Russian Academy of Sciences. In 2009-2012 under the President of the Russian Federation worked Commission on Combating attempts to falsify history to the detriment of the interests of Russia, and in September 2020 the head of the Investigative Committee declared About plans to open a division to combat history.
Nevertheless, at the end of 2019, a museum of new chronology was opened in the historical building in the very center of Yaroslavl. As stated at site“The main and only exhibit of the museum is not the subject of material culture, but the scientific theory” and “In the multimedia museum of the new chronology, you can find out what the true past of mankind was, to open previously unknown pages of history and rethink the knowledge gained at school and the university.” It was possible to implement the project on the initiative and on the money of local entrepreneur Oleg Zharov. The government of the Yaroslavl region It did not mind Against this idea, referring to the fact that the museum is private. At the presentation of the project in January 2019 Present Deputy Chairman of the Regional Government Maxim Avdeev.
Despite the silent support of regional officials, the camp of opponents of the new chronology received replenishment from an unexpected side-the Cossacks joined scientists-historians. In June 2020, the ataman of the Yaroslavl separate Cossack society Ilya Semenov Turned To the regional prosecutor’s office with a demand to bring the creators of the Museum of the New Chronology to criminal liability for insulting the feelings of believers.
