Trojan War XIII century BC. er. was one of the biggest events in European history and Asia. It was reflected in many written sources created by different chroniclers in different countries, different languages. Then came the era of sequencing history, and chronology engaged in sorting fallen into their hands of old documents. Medieval chronological XVI-XVII centuries by. er. made several blunders when recreating the history of antiquity. As a result, many original documents "left in the past" and creating a phantom reflection of medieval reality. In other words, many of the events XI-XVII centuries by. er. hoof, tripled, quadrupled, etc. In this case, the original usually remains "in place", and its duplicates phantom reflections were sent to a forced journey into the past. Travel took place not only in time but in space, that is, geographical map. Events in Rome could turn into "events in Greece, and vice versa. Errors in dating led to a chronological shift, discovered by Fomenko. The main ones are:
1) Roman-Byzantine shift by 330-360 years,
2) Roman shift by 1053 or 1153,
3) the Greek Bible translation by 1780-1800 years. Magnitude of shifts shown here is only approximate, since slightly vary from document to document.
offered us the names of shifts are explained very simply:
1) Roman-Byzantine SHIFT pushed back into the past and extended, basically, the history of Rome - Byzantium,
2) ROME SHIFT "udrevnil and extended, mostly history Roman Empire,
3) Greek-Biblical SHIFT pushed back into the past and extended, basically, the history of Greece and the biblical story.
Thus, the real medieval war of the XIII century BC. er. multiplied into many copies, some of which were then thrown far back in time and got there new names. One of the phantom duplicates, ensnared in the XIII century BC. er., called "Trojan War. Another copy, appeared in the VI century AD. er. got the name "Gothic War." And so on.
But as the "antique" Trojan, and Gothic wars are just a phantom reflections SAME REAL MEDIEVAL WARS XIII century BC. er., they BE alike. And it really is true. Due to the exclusive importance attached to history Scaliger two mentioned wars of "antiquity", it is useful to discuss the correspondence we observed in more detail. Now we will do it.
of the Trojan War The reader knows from childhood. Blind poet Homer described it in two immortal poems of the Iliad and the Odyssey. He enthusiastically sings of gods and heroes, faced in the Trojan battle. Pallas Athena, Achilles, Agamemnon, the passionate love of Helen and Paris (the reason for the war), the legendary Trojan horse, the fall of Troy, the smoke of fires, escape the Trojans and Aeneas, king, long wanderings of Odysseus. Fig. 1 shows an old picture of Troy. "Antique" town houses are built of brick. But the brick - and the more of the same shape - medieval invention. Fig. Figure 2 shows an old miniature from the book "History of Troy." Sculptor carves a figure on the tomb of a medieval knight Lats, see Fig. 3.

Gothic war less popular. Not all readers are generally heard of it. And in general history Middle Ages is not so popular and fashionable as "antiquity". At the same time among historians, concerned the Middle Ages, Gothic War is well known as crucial turning point in the history of the Roman Empire [196], v. 1. According to Scaliger version, Gothic War puts the last point in the development of imperial Rome. Then, supposedly, the following happens. Fall of the Roman Empire, barbarian invasion, making a brilliant imperial Rome in a gloomy medieval papal Rome, the beginning of the "dark ages" in Europe.
