The ancient Slavs, who are they and where did they come from? Slav - who is this? History and myths of the Slavs. History of the Slavs of the East European Plain

East Slavic tribes In the 4th-6th centuries, according to various sources, the lands east of the Carpathians were inhabited by the descendants of the Eastern Veneti - the Ants, who presumably served as the basis for the ethnogenesis of the East Slavic tribes. Most likely, the Antes formed in the 2nd-4th centuries in the area between the Dnieper and Dniester rivers and were part of the Chernyakhov archaeological culture, which was succeeded by the Penkovo ​​archaeological culture in the 6th-8th centuries.

Another descendants of the Eastern Veneti - the Sklavens - also partially migrated to the east after the 6th century and contributed to the ethnogenesis of the East Slavic tribes.

History knows about 15 East Slavic tribes, which existed approximately in the 9th-11th centuries, and by the 11th-13th centuries formed Old Russian people. (Wikipedia).

This is how the official history of the appearance on the Russian Plain briefly describes Eastern Slavs, the ancestors of the modern Russian, Belarusian and Ukrainian peoples. However, the direct connection between the Antes, Wends and Sklavens has not yet been confirmed. And by the 9th century, as if by magic, 15 East Slavic tribes appeared on the historical stage.

There are two types of resettlement of people to new territories: spontaneous and organized by the state. Spontaneous relocation is always associated with a great risk to life. Unknown lands, habitat conditions, predatory animals, diseases and hostile local population are a direct threat to life. Therefore, spontaneous relocation is most often carried out by people, saving themselves from inevitable problems and often alone.

Not everyone will decide to move families with children to nowhere and, at the same time, risk their lives. And the resettlement of peasant families to state level This is a completely different way of asking the question. New lands have been explored, the amount of land suitable for Agriculture, is carried out governmental support and protection of migrants. An agreement with the local population is also possible.

The factor of procreation is also important. After all, if a family moves to new lands, this may mean the end of the family line, since the grown children will have no one to marry. So the Lykov family died out in Siberia and moved to the taiga, and the family had four children. The instinct of self-preservation also applies to the preservation of the race.

It is difficult to imagine that spontaneous settlers during the 8th century formed 15 tribal formations on the Russian Plain or that the Sklavens and Wends split into these tribes. Yes, there are no sources confirming the kinship of the Antes, Wends and Sklavens. As an indirect example we can consider female name Anna, in Polish this name sounds like Hannah. What do antas sound like in Polish? Maybe the Khanty, then they are more likely related to the modern Khanty, and not to the Slavs.

The connection of the tribes mentioned in the works of ancient historians to the archaeological finds of the Chernyakhov or Penkov culture is also not provable and is a conclusion of historians. As an example of the resettlement of people, we can consider the resettlement of Russian townspeople in the 20th century.

At the beginning of the century a large number of The townspeople lived in barracks and semi-basements; after October 1917, they began to be moved to communal apartments, where the luxury of the 19th century was partially preserved. In the mid-50s, relocation began to "Khrushchev" buildings, and 20 years later to new panel buildings. Otherwise, one and the same person could become a representative of four eras and cultures. This could be the case with archaeological cultures, and the difference between them of 200-300 years is not necessary.

Empirically, this can be observed today. After 1991, there was a strong stratification of people in Russia. Some people live very poorly and still use 20th-century appliances and furniture, while others have everything modern. Conditional excavations conditional two-story house will define residents of the second floor as residents of the 21st century, and residents of the 1st floor as residents of the 20th century. Thus, a time gap of 100 years will appear between contemporaries. If “archaeologists” find a smartphone on the ground floor, they will attribute it to soil shifts.

Similar processes could have occurred in the past. If we imagine the organized resettlement of five families to a given territory, and five families are enough to exclude consanguineous marriages among the descendants of settlers in the next generations, then the first two main tasks for people will be sowing and building temporary housing.

In mid-latitudes, these problems cannot be solved before May, and summer is short. In such conditions, the most logical solution would be to collectively solve these problems. Some of the resettlers will be busy building new housing, and the other part will be busy with plowing and sowing. Without solving these problems in the winter, they would face death from hunger and cold.

What kind of housing can be built on a quick fix in a forest or forest-steppe zone? The simplest architecture is a barracks-type semi-dugout. It is possible that the settlers did just that. Then they built a large half-dugout for five families at once, taking into account the keeping of poultry and livestock. This type of settlement is similar to the Chernyakhov culture.

But peasant families prefer to live on their own farms. Then it is natural that next year they will begin to move into a common barracks. Practice shows that collective work is very rarely of high quality. Therefore, it is difficult to assume that the settlers began to build good houses and outbuildings for each other. The most likely step in resettlement was the construction of separate half-dugouts for each family. And it is quite logical that people could look for a more convenient place to move to.

Then, instead of a common barracks, five half-dugouts appeared for each individual family. Which is very similar to the Penkov culture. And the construction of more comfortable houses with outbuildings each family carried out independently, while it is possible that people continued to help each other. Just like in modern times. Thus, the same people could become representatives of three, or even four different cultures. In the 20th century, several cultures can be traced in music and architecture alone.

From the point of view of time assessment, the first common half-dugout will collapse first and become an artifact for archaeologists. Family semi-dugouts can be used for several years before building a house, then as a barnyard. Then they have a chance to outlive their prototype by 20 years. But this is not 200 years!

When organizing the resettlement of peasants by the state, people could prepare their resettlement in cold period years, after harvest. Primarily for the preparation of building material for housing. If you imagine the entire resettlement process, it might look like this. In a certain kingdom-state, prosperity began. The rural population increased sharply, or each family was able to raise more children.

As children grow up and new families and new children appear, there will no longer be enough agricultural land. Then there will be a threat of famine and, as a consequence, the decline of the state. There is only one way out of this situation - the resettlement of the surplus population. Analogues of such relocations are also known in New history. This is how I moved in North America, the Urals by the Stroganovs and Demidovs, the south of Siberia and the Far East. The same resettlement at the state level was Tselina during Soviet power in the 60s, with the only difference that it was not families who were sent to the Virgin Lands, but young people.

Which state could carry out large-scale resettlement of people in Eastern Europe? All historians attribute the appearance of the Slavs in Europe in the 6th - 8th centuries. At that time the only large state There was the Byzantine Empire in the Mediterranean. So from there?

Official history states that in the late 5th and 6th centuries, under the emperors Justin and Justinian, the Byzantine Empire was at its peak. Then the conclusion arises that the ancestors of all modern Slavs It was these emperors who resettled the expanses from the Oder to the Volga from the territory of the Byzantine Empire. Is there any evidence for this?

There is no direct evidence and, most likely, there will not be. But there are several indirect confirmations. For example, in Russian folklore there are the concepts of Constantinople and Tsar Father. Constantinople is Byzantium or Constantinople, where the Tsar Father sat. Could the settlers and their descendants call the king so affectionately? Why not, if the monarch gave them and their descendants rich lands, which ensured prosperity for centuries. And why in Russia were Moscow and St. Petersburg never called Constantinople, but only the capital? As if hinting that there is a throne, but there is no king on it. This reasoning leads to the question: did our ancestors accept the Rurikovichs and Romanovs as kings?

The second indirect confirmation is the names of wildflowers in the Russian field. And the Russian field, and these wild flowers are symbols of our identity. We are talking about chamomile and cornflower. These names clearly show a semantic connection with the Byzantine Empire: the chamomile is named in honor of the beloved fatherland of the Roman Empire, and the cornflower in honor of the beloved Tsar-Father of the Byzantine Emperor Basileus. And another good quarter of the wildflowers from the Russian field have distinct Greek-Byzantine names - clover, lemon balm, valerian, buttercup (Lucius) and timothy grass or sow thistle and some others.

It turns out that the ancestors of the Slavs were there and from there they went to the Slavic lands.

There is another confirmation that has not been noticed official history. This is the date of the founding of Kyiv. According to legend, a certain prince Kiy with his brothers and sister founded the city of Kyiv, which became the capital of the glades and the ancestor of all Russian cities. The legend dates the foundation to the year 482. How legendary is this date?

This is the end of the 5th century, when the Byzantine Empire began to flourish before the Justinians. At that time, the resettlement of peasants could well have begun. Who was the Byzantine emperor in 482? The answer is amazing - Zeno Flavius ​​Tarasikodissa! Isn’t this where the Ukrainian Zenovichs, Tarasenkis, Zins and Tarasas came from? After all, the name Taras can be considered purely Ukrainian. A version suggests itself that the Tiverts, White Croats and Kyiv Polyans could actually be resettled by the Byzantine emperor Tsar-Father Zenon-Taras, after whom a huge number of children were named.

If we really consider the resettlement of peasants by the state to new lands, then the first step should have been to reconnaissance of the area by an armed detachment, similar to Ermak’s detachment during the development of Siberia. In the Byzantine Empire in those days, troops were commanded by cavalry chiefs - strategists. Chief of the cavalry. How can it be called in another language? It is quite possible that this name will be king or prince.

Legend has it that Prince Kiy and his brothers Shchek and Khorev founded Kyiv on the Kiev hills. On the other hand, it could look like this - Emperor Taras sent his detachment under the command of Kiy (in Latin letters Kiy) to establish an outpost for the subsequent resettlement of peasants to new lands. Just what name can be associated with the name of King Kai? Probably only the Jewish name Cain!

If so, then the founder of modern Kyiv was the Byzantine strategist the Jew Cain. His detachment organized the resettlement of groups of peasants from Balkan Peninsula, which subsequently formed East Slavic tribes Polans, White Croats and Tiverts. Among whom the names Taras and Zina spread. It is possible that the second strategist-king was Horev, from whom the name Croats came, or vice versa. One can only guess who was the prototype of Shchek and Lybid.

It can also be assumed that the word white did not appear by chance in the name of the White Croats tribe. By analogy with the legendary Hellene, which means light, whites were called because they were fair-haired and light-skinned. It is likely that at that time genetic mutation continued, and light-skinned people appeared.

The logistics of resettlement at the state level at that time suggests that it would take 3-5 years to resettle a population group of 5,000 people into one region. 5,000 settlers in one century can grow into a tribe of up to 150,000 people. Then Rus' early Middle Ages with 15 resettlement centers, populated by 75,000 settlers, could count up to 10 million people by the 8th century.

There are estimates of the population of Kievan Rus in the 10th century from 5,400,000 to 7,500,000 people, which looks very realistic. The version about the resettlement of the ancestors of the Slavs from the territory of the Byzantine Empire looks the same. Therefore, many Greco-Slavic traditions, such as writing and religion, have much in common. Common ancestors could not live on the same territory and, at the same time, communicate in absolutely different languages and have a completely different religion.

From all of the above, it turns out that the history of the Byzantine Empire is significantly shortened. The entire “Kievan Rus” was part of a single Byzantine Roman Empire, and until its fall, a certain ruling dynasty of Rurik and his descendants could not appear in Rus'. The same processes could occur in other European lands. The so-called Great Migration of Peoples was the resettlement of peasants from the Byzantine Empire to Western Europe.

The Great Migration organized by the Justinians was revolutionary, and at the same time, destructive for the empire. If we actually consider the entire territory of Europe from England to the Urals in the 10th century, and how it was inhabited by the peoples of that time. It is not difficult to imagine that the entire forest part was inhabited by tribes of hunters who were representatives of the Finno-Ugric language family and partly Germanic and Celtic in Western Europe.

Land suitable for agriculture, which bordered forested hunting grounds, began to produce agricultural products. A real exchange of goods appeared between hunters and peasants. Grains, vegetables, poultry and animals were easily traded for honey, wax and furs. Previously, the Tsar-Father could collect taxes only from neighboring peasants, because a slaughtered chicken cannot be delivered a thousand kilometers away. And salt won't help!

And wax, honey or animal skins can be transported thousands of kilometers away. What was wax in those days? Yes, this is the oil of our time! This is a hydrocarbon energy carrier! What about honey? This is the sugar of our time and a preservative! What about furs? So this is a freely convertible currency! It turned out that the wise emperor, having resettled the peasants in the forest-steppe and broad-leaved forests, carried out an economic revolution in the empire!

Tax collection increased a hundredfold, and wax, honey and furs were replaced by monetary circulation in the form of coins. Is this why the kuna is mentioned in Yaroslav’s Truth? Perhaps this is the value of the sable-marten skin expressed in coin. The Empire has strengthened a hundredfold!

But the great migration of the ancestors of the Romans, Germans and Slavs to Europe from the autochthonous Balkan and Asia Minor lands of the Byzantine Empire caused an explosion of the empire from within. The departure of the Caucasians from the empire to Europe, and they were the main bearers of the European part of the common religion, caused opposition from the Semitic part of the population of the empire.

A huge part of the people of the empire - the Semites, feeling themselves to be the bulk of the population, demanded recognition of their religious persuasion as the main one. On the new outskirts of the empire, the religious movements of Orthodoxy and Catholicism became isolated. The process of formation of religion is very similar to the process of formation of the language of their dialect.

The version is quite plausible. Then the appearance of the Slavs, Romans and Germans in Europe is directly related to the split of the church into three concessions - Christian, Muslim and Jewish. It is possible that fluctuations occurred until the 10th century. What was reflected in Russian folklore as the baptism of Rus'.

There are many blank spots in the history of the Slavs, which makes it possible for numerous modern “researchers,” based on speculation and unproven facts, to put forward the most fantastic theories about the origin and formation of the statehood of the Slavic peoples. Often even the concept of “Slav” is misunderstood and considered as a synonym for the concept of “Russian”. Moreover, there is an opinion that a Slav is a nationality. These are all misconceptions.

Who are the Slavs?

The Slavs constitute the largest ethno-linguistic community in Europe. Within it there are three main groups: (i.e. Russians, Belarusians and Ukrainians), Western (Poles, Czechs, Lusatians and Slovaks) and Southern Slavs (among them we name Bosnians, Serbs, Macedonians, Croats, Bulgarians, Montenegrins, Slovenes) . Slav is not a nationality, since nation is a narrower concept. Individual Slavic nations formed relatively late, while the Slavs (or rather, Proto-Slavs) separated from the Indo-European community one and a half thousand years BC. e. Several centuries passed, and ancient travelers learned about them. At the turn of the era, the Slavs were mentioned by Roman historians under the name “Venedi”: from written sources it is known that the Slavic tribes waged wars with the Germanic ones.

It is believed that the homeland of the Slavs (more precisely, the place where they formed as a community) was the territory between the Oder and the Vistula (some authors claim that between the Oder and the middle reaches of the Dnieper).

Ethnonym

Here it makes sense to consider the origin of the very concept of “Slav”. In the old days, peoples were often called by the name of the river on the banks of which they lived. In ancient times, the Dnieper was called “Slavutich”. The root of “glory” itself probably goes back to the word kleu, common to all Indo-Europeans, meaning rumor or fame. There is another common version: “Slovak”, “Clovak” and, ultimately, “Slav” are simply “a person” or “a person who speaks our language”. Representatives of ancient tribes did not consider all strangers who spoke an incomprehensible language to be people at all. The self-name of any people - for example, “Mansi” or “Nenets” - in most cases means “person” or “man”.

Farming. Social order

A Slav is a farmer. They learned to cultivate the land back in the days when all Indo-Europeans had a common language. In the northern territories, slash-and-burn agriculture was practiced, in the south - fallow farming. Millet, wheat, barley, rye, flax and hemp were grown. They knew garden crops: cabbage, beets, turnips. The Slavs lived in forest and forest-steppe zones, so they were engaged in hunting, beekeeping, and also fishing. They also raised livestock. The Slavs produced high-quality weapons, ceramics, and agricultural tools for those times.

On early stages development among the Slavs there was which gradually evolved into a neighboring one. As a result of military campaigns, nobility emerged from the community members; the nobility received land, and communal system changed to feudal.

General in ancient times

In the north, the Slavs neighbored the Baltic and in the west - with the Celts, in the east - with the Scythians and Sarmatians, and in the south - with the ancient Macedonians, Thracians, and Illyrians. At the end of the 5th century AD. e. they reached the Baltic and Black Seas, and by the 8th century they reached Lake Ladoga and mastered the Balkans. By the 10th century, the Slavs occupied lands from the Volga to the Elbe, from the Mediterranean to the Baltic. This migration activity was caused by invasions of nomads from Central Asia, attacks by German neighbors, as well as climate change in Europe: individual tribes were forced to look for new lands.

History of the Slavs of the East European Plain

Eastern Slavs (ancestors of modern Ukrainians, Belarusians and Russians) by the 9th century AD. e. occupied lands from the Carpathians to the middle reaches of the Oka and Upper Don, from Ladoga to the Middle Dnieper region. They actively interacted with the local Finno-Ugrians and Balts. Already from the 6th century, small tribes began to enter into alliances with each other, which marked the birth of statehood. Each such union was headed by a military leader.

The names of tribal unions are known to everyone from the school history course: these are the Drevlyans, and the Vyatichi, and the Northerners, and the Krivichi. But perhaps the most famous were the Polyans and Ilmen Slovenes. The former lived along the middle reaches of the Dnieper and founded Kyiv, the latter lived on the banks of Lake Ilmen and built Novgorod. The “route from the Varangians to the Greeks” that emerged in the 9th century contributed to the rise and subsequent unification of these cities. Thus, in 882, the state of the Slavs of the East European Plain - Rus' - arose.

High mythology

The Slavs cannot be called Unlike the Egyptians or Indians, they did not have time to develop a developed mythological system. It is known that the Slavs (i.e., myths about the origin of the world) have much in common with the Finno-Ugric ones. They also contain an egg, from which the world is “born,” and two ducks, by order supreme god bringing silt from the bottom of the ocean to create the earth's firmament. At first, the Slavs worshiped Rod and Rozhanitsy, later - personified forces of nature (Perun, Svarog, Mokoshi, Dazhdbog).

There were ideas about paradise - Iria (Vyria), (Oak). Religious ideas The Slavs developed according to the same pattern as that of other European peoples (after all, the ancient Slav is a European!): from the deification of natural phenomena to the recognition of a single God. It is known that in the 10th century AD. e. Prince Vladimir tried to “unify” the pantheon by making Perun, the patron saint of warriors, the supreme deity. But the reform failed, and the prince had to turn his attention to Christianity. Forced Christianization, however, was never able to completely destroy pagan ideas: Elijah the prophet began to be identified with Perun, and Christ and the Mother of God began to be mentioned in the texts of magical conspiracies.

Low mythology

Alas, the Slavic myths about gods and heroes were not written down. But these peoples created a developed lower mythology, the characters of which - goblins, mermaids, ghouls, mortgages, banniki, ovinniks and middays - are known to us from songs, epics, and proverbs. Back at the beginning of the 20th century, peasants told ethnographers about how to protect themselves from werewolves and negotiate with the merman. Some remnants of paganism are still alive in the popular consciousness.

Where did the ancestors of the Slavs come from Zlata Arieva There is an opinion everywhere that real story the Slavs begins with the Christianization of Rus'. It turns out that before this event the Slavs did not seem to exist, since, one way or another, a person, multiplying, settling the territory, leaves behind a trace in the form of a system of beliefs, writing, language, rules governing the relationships of fellow tribesmen, architectural buildings, rituals, tales and legends. Based on modern history, writing and literacy came to the Slavs from Greece, law - from Rome, religion - from Judea. Lifting Slavic theme, the first thing that Slavism is associated with is paganism. But let me draw your attention to the point of this word: “language” means people, “nik” - none, unknown, i.e. a pagan is a representative of an alien, unfamiliar faith. Can we be gentiles and pagans to ourselves? The Christian religion came from Israel, just as history came from the Jewish Torah. Christianity has existed on Earth for only 2000 years, in Rus' - 1000. Considering these dates from the perspective of the Universe, they seem insignificant, because the ancient knowledge of any people goes far beyond these figures. It’s strange to think that everything that existed long before Christianity was developed, collected, passed on from generation to generation - heresy and delusions. It turns out that all people on Earth have lived for centuries in illusion, self-deception and delusion. Returning to the Slavs, how were they able to create so many beautiful works of art: literature, architecture, architecture, painting, weaving, etc., if they were ignorant forest dwellers? Raising the richest Slavic-Aryan Heritage, the Slavs appeared on Earth long before representatives of other nations. Previously, the term “earth” had the same meaning as the Greek name “planet”, i.e. a celestial object moving in its orbit around the sun. Our Earth had the name Midgard, where “mid” or “middle” means middle, “gard” means city, city, i.e.(remember the shamanic idea of ​​the structure of the Universe, where our Earth was connected with the middle world). About 460,500 years ago, our ancestors landed on the north pole of Midgard-Earth. Since that period, our planet has undergone significant changes, both climatic and geographical. In those distant times, the North Pole was a continent rich in flora and fauna, the island of Buyan, on which lush vegetation grew, which our ancestors settled in. The Slavic Family consisted of representatives of four nations: Da'Aryans, Kh'Aryans, Rasens and Svyatorus. The Da'Aryans were the first to arrive on Midgard-Earth. They came from the Star System of the constellation Zimun or Ursa Minor, the land of Paradise. The color of their eyes - gray, silver - corresponded to the sun of their system, which was called Tara. They called northern continent, where they settled, Daariya. Next came the Kh'Aryans. Their homeland is the constellation Orion, the land of Troara, the sun - Rada - green, which is imprinted in the color of their eyes. Then the Svyatorus arrived - blue-eyed Slavs from the constellation Mokosh or Ursa Major, who called themselves Svaga. Later, brown-eyed Rasens appeared from the constellation Rasa and the land of Ingard, the Dazhdbog-Sun system or modern beta Leo. If we talk about the nationalities belonging to the four Great Slavic-Aryan Clans, then from the Da'Aryans came the Siberian Russians, northwestern Germans, Danes, Dutch, Latvians, Lithuanians, Estonians, etc. From the Kh'Aryan Family came the Eastern and Pomeranian Rus, Scandinavians, Anglo-Saxons, Normans (or Muromets), Gauls, and Belovodsk Rusichs. The clan of Svyatorus - blue-eyed Slavs - is represented by northern Russians, Belarusians, Polans, Poles, East Prussians, Serbs, Croats, Macedonians, Scotts, Irish, Asses from Iria, i.e. Assyrians. The grandchildren of Dazhdbozhy, the Rasens are the Western Rosses, the Etruscans (Russian ethnic group or, as the Greeks called them, these Russians), Moldavians, Italians, Franks, Thracians, Goths, Albanians, Avars, etc. The ancestral home of our ancestors is Hyperborea (Boreas - north wind, hyper - strong) or Da'Ariya (from the first Slavic clan of Da'Aryans who populated the Earth) - the northern continent of Midgard-Earth. Here was the source of the ancient Vedic knowledge, grains of which are now scattered throughout the Earth among various peoples. But our ancestors had to sacrifice their homeland to save Midgard-Earth. In those distant times, the Earth had 3 satellites: the Moon Lelyu with an orbital period of 7 days, Fattu - 13 days and the Month - 29.5 days. The Dark Forces from the technogenic galaxy of 10,000 planets (darkness corresponds to 10,000), or, as they also call it, the Pekel World (i.e., the lands there are not yet fully developed, just “baking”) took a fancy to Lelya and deployed their forces on her and directed their blow to Midgard-Earth. Our ancestor and Supreme God, Tarkh, the son of God Perun, saved the Earth, defeating Lelya and destroying the kingdom of the Kashchei. Hence the custom of beating eggs on Easter, which symbolizes the victory of Tarkh Perunovich over Kashchei, a mortal demon who found his death in an egg (a prototype of the Moon). This event happened 111,814 years ago and became a new starting point for the Great Migration. So the waters of Lelya poured onto Midgard-Earth, flooding the Northern Continent. As a result, Daaria sank to the bottom of the Arctic (Icy) Ocean. This became the reason for the Great Migration of Slavic clans from Daria to Rasenia along the isthmus to the lands lying to the south (the remains of the isthmus were preserved in the form of the Novaya Zemlya islands). The Great Migration lasted 16 years. Thus, 16 became a sacred number for the Slavs. The Slavic Svarog circle or zodiac, consisting of 16 Heavenly Halls, is based on it. 16 years old is full part a circle of years of 144 years, consisting of 16 years passing through 9 elements, where the last 16 year was considered sacred. Gradually, our ancestors populated the territory from the Ripeian mountains, covered with burdock, or the Ural, which means lying near the Sun: U Ra (Sun, Light, Radiance) L (bed), to Altai and the Lena River, where Al or Alnost is the highest structure, hence reality - repetition, reflection of Alness; tai - top, i.e. Altai is both mountains containing the richest mine deposits, and a center of energy, a place of Power. From Tibet to the Indian Ocean in the south (Iran), later in the southwest (India). 106,786 years ago, our ancestors again built Asgard (the city of Asov) at the confluence of Iria and Omi, erecting Alatyr-Mountain - a temple complex 1000 Arshin high (more than 700 m), consisting of four pyramid-shaped Temples (Temples), located one above the other. And so the Holy Race settled: the Clans of the Ases - the Gods living on Earth, the Country of the Ases throughout the territory of Midgard-Earth, multiplied and became the Great Family, forming the country of the Ases - Asia, in modern terms - Asia, building the state of the Aryans - Great Tartary. They called their country Belovodye from the name of the Iriy River, on which Asgard Iriysky was built (Iriy - white, pure). Siberia is the northern part of the country, i.e. Northern Truly Divine Iriy). Later, the Clans of the Great Race, driven by the harsh Daarian wind, began to move further south, settling on different continents. Prince Skand settled northern part Venei. Later, this territory began to be called Skando(i)nav(i)ya, because, when the prince was dying, he said that his Spirit after death would protect this Earth (Navya is the soul of the deceased living in the world of Navi, in contrast to the world of Revealing) . The Van clans settled Transcaucasia, then, due to drought, moved south of Scandinavia, to the territory of modern Netherlands. In memory of their Ancestors, residents of the Netherlands keep the prefix Van in their surnames (Van Gogh, Van Beethoven, etc.). The clans of God Veles - the inhabitants of Scotland and Ireland - named one of the provinces Wales or Wels in honor of their ancestor and patron. The Svyatorus clans settled in the eastern and southern parts of Venia, as well as the Baltic states. In the eastern part is the country of Gardarika (a country of many cities), consisting of Novgorod Rus', Pomeranian Russia (Latvia and Prussia), Red Rus' (Rzeczpospolita), White Rus' (Belarus), Lesser Russia (Kievan Russia), Middle Russia (Muscovy, Vladimir), Carpathian (Hungarians, Romanians), Silver (Serbs). The clans of God Perun settled Persia, and the Kh'Aryans settled Arabia. The clans of God Nya settled on the Antlan mainland and began to be called Ants. There they lived together with the indigenous population with Fire-colored skin, to whom they passed on secret knowledge. Just remember the fall of the Inca civilization, when the Indians mistook the conquistadors for the White Gods, or another fact - the patron of the Indians is the flying Serpent Queizacoatl, described as a white man with a beard. Antlan (doe is an inhabited territory, i.e. the country of the Ants) or, as the Greeks called it - Atlantis - became a powerful civilization, where people over time began to abuse their knowledge, as a result of which, violating the laws of nature, they brought down the moon Fattu on the Earth, themselves and they flooded their peninsula. As a result of the catastrophe, the Svarog circle or Zodiac was shifted, the Earth's rotation axis tilted to one side, and Winter, or Madder in Slavic, began to cover the Earth with its snow cloak for a third of the year. All this happened 13,016 years ago and became the starting point of the new chronology from the Great Cooling. The Ant clans moved to the country of Ta-Kem, where they lived with people with skin the color of Darkness, taught them sciences, crafts, agriculture, and the construction of pyramidal tombs, which is why Egypt began to be called the country of man-made mountains. The first four dynasties of pharaohs were white, then they began to train chosen ones from indigenous peoples to become pharaohs. Later, a war occurred between the Great Race and the Great Dragon (Chinese), as a result of which a Peace Treaty was signed in the Star Temple (Observatory) between Asur (As - earthly God, Ur - inhabited territory) and Ahriman (Arim, Ahriman - a person with more dark color skin). This event occurred 7516 years ago and became the starting point of the new chronology from the creation of the World in the Star Temple. The Slavs were called Ases - Gods living on Earth, children of the heavenly Gods - the Creators. They were never slaves, a “dumb herd” without the right to choose. The Slavs never worked (the root of the word “work” is “slave”), they never seized other people’s territories by force (the Greeks called them tyrants or tyrens because they did not allow their lands to be seized), they worked for the good of their Family, they were the owners of the results of your labor. The Slavs sacredly revered the laws of RITA - the laws of Race and Blood, which did not allow incestuous marriages. For this, Russians are often called racists. Again, you need to look at the root to understand the deepest Wisdom of our Ancestors. The globe, like a magnet, is represented by two opposite poles. White peoples inhabited the North positive pole, black peoples inhabited the southern negative pole. All physical and energetic systems of the body were adjusted in accordance with the work of these poles. Therefore, in the case of a marriage between a white and a black person, the child is deprived of clan support from both parents: +7 and -7 add up to zero. Such children are more susceptible to diseases, because deprived of full immune protection, they often become revolutionary aggressors, protesting against systems that did not accept them. Now the Indian teaching about chakras has become widespread, according to which there are 7 main chakras located in the human body along the line of the spine, but then the question arises: why does the energy in the head area change its signs: if the right side of the body has a positive charge, then the right hemisphere will have a negative one . If energy, like an electric current, flows in a straight line without being refracted anywhere, it cannot simply change its sign to the opposite one. Our ancestors said that there are 9 main chakras in the human body: 7 are located along the line of the spine, 2 in the armpits, forming an energy cross. Thus, the flow of energy is refracted in the center of the cross, changing its sign to the opposite. Jesus Christ also said that everyone carries his own cross, i.e. Everyone has their own energy cross. Now scientists are ridiculing the ancient ideas about the structure of the Universe, which is shaped like a disk resting on three elephants, which, in turn, stand on a turtle swimming in the vast oceans of the world. The picture seems naive and stupid if you look at things flatly. The Slavs have always been famous imaginative thinking, behind every word, every image you need to look for a series of meanings. The flat disk of the Earth was associated with flat everyday thinking and dual consciousness, thinking in yes-no categories. This world rests on three elephants: matter, as the basis of the West, idea, the basis of the Arab East, and transcendentalism or mysticism, the basis of India, Tibet, Nepal, etc. The turtle is the source, the primordial knowledge from which “elephants” draw their energy. The North is precisely such a turtle for other peoples, directly connected to the Primordial Knowledge - the ocean of Limitless Knowledge and Absolute Truth (energy). Simplest solar symbol Slavs - the swastika, which was widely used by Hitler, which left a negative imprint on the symbol of human structure. On the other hand, Hitler’s main goal was world domination, to achieve which he used the most powerful and advanced weapons; he took as a basis neither Egyptian hieroglyphs, nor Jewish or Arab cabalistic signs, but rather Slavic symbols. After all, what is a Swastika - this is an image of a cross in motion, this is a harmonious number four, indicating the presence in any descendant of the Slavic-Aryan peoples of the Body that his parents endowed him with, the Soul that the Gods inhabited this body, the Spirit - communication with the Gods and protection Ancestors and Conscience, as a measure of all human deeds. Let us at least remember the holiday of Kupala, when people washed themselves in rivers (cleansed the body), jumped over a fire (purified the Soul), walked on coals (purified the Spirit). The swastika also pointed to the structure of the Universe, consisting of our Reality World, two Navi worlds: dark Navi and light Navi, i.e. Glory and peace to the Most High Gods - Rule. If we turn to the Western hierarchy of worlds, it is represented by the physical world, corresponding to the World of Revealing, which is washed on both sides by the astral plane, corresponding to Navi, and above that comes the mental one, as an analogue of Slavi. In this case there is no talk of a higher World of Rule. From school, children are told that the ignorant Slavs were taught to read and write by Greek monks, forgetting that these same monks took the Slavic initial letter as a basis, but, since it could only be understood in images, they excluded a number of letters, changing the interpretation of the remaining ones. Subsequently, the language became more and more simplified. The Slavs always had two prefixes without- and bes-, where without meant absence, demon - belonging to an inhabitant of the dark world, i.e., when we say immortal, we mean a mortal demon, if we say immortal, it will mean something completely different - the absence of death . The initial letter of the Slavs carried a huge meaning. At first glance, the same sounding word could carry a completely different meaning. So the word “peace” can be interpreted in completely different ways, depending on which letter “and” is used. Peace through “and” meant a state without war, because. the figurative meaning of “and” is the connection of two streams. The world through “i” had a Universal meaning, where the dot denoted the Supreme God the Progenitor. The world through “ï” was interpreted as a community, where two dots denoted the union of the Gods and Ancestors, and so on. Often scientists see a kind of underdevelopment in the polytheism of the Slavs. But again, superficial judgments do not provide an understanding of the issue. The Slavs consider the Great Unknown Being as God's Progenitor, whose name is Ra-M-Ha (Ra - light, radiance, M - peace, Ha - positive force), who manifested himself in New Reality, from the contemplation of this reality, I was illuminated by the Great Light of joy, and from this light of joy, various Worlds and Universes, Gods and Ancestors were born, as direct descendants, i.e. whose children we are. If Ramha manifested itself into the New Reality, it means that there is still some higher Old Reality, and above it there is another and another. In order to understand and know all this, for the Slavs the Gods and Ancestors established the Path of Spiritual Revival and Improvement through creation, awareness of various worlds and infinities, development to the level of Gods, because The Slavic Gods are the same people - Ases, who inhabited various Earths, created for the good of the Family, and passed the Path of Spiritual Improvement. The images of the Slavic Gods were not and could not be photographic; they did not convey the shell, did not make a copy, but conveyed the essence of the Deity, the main grain and the Divine structure. So Perun with a raised sword personified the protection of the Clans, Svarog with a sword with the tip down guarded Ancient Wisdom. He is God because he could take on different guises in the Obvious World, but His Essence remained the same. The same superficial understanding attributes human sacrifice to the Slavs. Western materialists, attached to the body, identifying the physical shell with a person, cannot understand that people did not burn in fire, but used fire (remember the chariots of fire) as a means of transportation to other worlds and realities. Thus, Slavic knowledge has a rich history and culture; the roots of that wisdom go back centuries and millennia. We, as direct descendants of our Slavic Gods and Ancestors, have an internal key to the system of this knowledge, by opening which we open the Bright Path Spiritual Development and Improvement, we open our eyes and hearts, we begin to see, know, live, know and understand. All Wisdom is within a person, you just need to want to see and realize it. Our Gods are always nearby and ready to help at any moment, like our parents, ready life to lay down for your children. Only children often don’t understand this; they look for the Truth in other people’s houses, in overseas countries. Parents are always tolerant and kind to their children, contact them and they will always help.

"The senator and historian Procopius of Caesarea was outraged. "Almost every year" they attack "Illyria and all of Thrace from the Ionian Sea to the suburbs of Constantinople." At the same time, they brazenly plunder "all regions", "are terribly and inhumanly savage" and commit "indescribable atrocities." They are "ruthless and harsh enemies" filled with "an insatiable desire to fight." The people whom the famous historian of the mid-6th century AD described in such harsh terms were called "Sklabenoi", presumably a Greek derivative of the name "slovene" - Slavs ", writes in an article for Die Welt historian and publicist Berthold Seewald.

"Where the Slavs came from, and how they managed to populate the whole east and large areas of south-eastern Europe within a few centuries, is one of the great questions of research, which was and remains not free from strong nationalistic overtones. Because the formation of the nations of most Slavic peoples since 1800 years took place mainly under foreign domination, which turned the search for one’s own “homeland” into a matter of faith,” the article says.

A generalized idea of ​​the ongoing research is offered by historian and specialist in Eastern Europe Eduard Mule in his new book “Slavs”. In it he states: “All attempts to identify the original main region, the “ancestral home” from which the Slavs were supposed to gradually spread, remained with all their inconsistency and controversy without reliable results, as well as efforts to more accurately determine the date of origin of the Slavic language and show it early development"Instead, a professor at the University of Münster proposes a complex model of how various unrelated groups came to be formed within a short time ethnic family, united by language and culture, writes Seewald.

"Although this happened at the same time when contemporaries, mainly Byzantium, had a developed written language, the sources give very scanty information. Because the Eastern Roman, Lombard or Frankish chroniclers described a strip with a width of at best from 200 to 400 kilometers, which stretched in a slightly curved arc from Holstein in the north along the Elbe, the Saale, the Bohemian Forest, the Eastern Alps and the Dalmatian coast of the Adriatic Sea through Macedonia and Thrace to the gates of Constantinople. What happened in the depths. of Eastern Europe“It’s not clear,” the publicist continues.

"In addition, the early Slavs often established connections with other peoples, mainly as warriors among such steppe peoples of Asian origin as the Ants, Avars or (proto-) Bulgars. Mühle refers to linguistic studies that cover the vast areas of Eastern Europe inhabited speakers of the Slavic language already in the period from the 6th to the 8th centuries. The use of borrowed words is due to the neighborhood in which the Finno-Ugric peoples, Iranians, as well as speakers of the Baltic and Daco-Thracian languages ​​lived,” notes the author of the article.

"What material heritage can belong to individual groups - big question. Because tools, decorations or burials do not bear the imprints or inscriptions of their manufacturers. However, Mühle presents a set of archaeological findings that can be interpreted as manifestations of "early Slavic culture": 1. simple, unadorned, hand-made pots, 2. simple, single-room dwellings dug into the ground, and 3. cremation and burial in tombs with urns,” writes Berthold Seewald.

"These are the earliest distinctive features found in the Prague or Korczak culture on the border between the 5th and 6th centuries, traces of this culture can be found between the Bug and Pripyat, in the upper reaches of the Dniester and in the middle reaches of the Dnieper, that is, in today's Western Ukraine. For some linguists, Mühle admits, we're talking about about the original territory of the Slavs, from where they began their expansion into the sparsely populated spaces of Eastern Europe,” the historian continues.

An early portrait of the Slavs is given by the Byzantine Procopius of Caesarea: “Living far from each other, they huddle in poor huts and often change their place of residence. They go into battle mainly on foot, and they are armed only with a shield and a spear, they do not wear chain mail. some don’t even have a shirt or cape on their body... Their way of life is rude and primitive... But they are absolutely not bad and not evil people, but they do this out of their simplicity, it is similar to the way of life of the Huns." Moreover, by “Huns” Procopius means everyone who belongs to nomadic peoples Eurasian steppes.

"The rapid and extensive "Slavicization" of Eastern Europe for Mühle is not the result of military or cultural expansion" Slavic people", she - "result complex process assimilation and acculturation,” in which various groups and newcomers are integrated into a new “Slavic” community,” writes Berthold Seewald.

“Mühle sees the reason for this long-term success in the attractiveness and unifying power of the cultural model, which was convincing primarily by its simplicity, which Procopius drew attention to. Small settlements were built in accordance with geographical conditions and the resources available, arable lands and pastures were reclaimed from the wooded steppes by burning trees. All this could be quickly abandoned when the soil was depleted. The main routes of movement were widely branched river systems, which on the large plain bordered closely on each other and were sometimes separated only by narrow watersheds,” the historian believes.

"These village communities, consisting of perhaps half a dozen families, or about 60 people, practiced subsistence farming, which was focused solely on their own survival. The communities cultivated wheat, barley and millet, as well as vegetables, engaged in livestock raising and fishing and used forest products (wood, resin, honey, hides). Metal was smelted in small shaft furnaces, in which only a low temperature could be obtained,” the author of the article continues.

“This simple life corresponded to the forms of government in the earthly and otherworldly worlds. Procopius reported that the Sklabenoi “were not ruled by one person,” but lived “from time immemorial on the basis of a democratic order.” And there was an even hierarchy in the pantheon. The gods in human form appeared only in the 10th - 12th centuries, before which the divine order was determined by the forces of nature,” writes Berthold Seewald.

"This cultural model gave individual talented individuals a chance for social growth. In the fight against the claims of the steppe nomads, individual “princes,” in cooperation with the elders of individual groups of settlers, could rise to the level of “king of the army” and architecturally confirmed their rank by building a fortress. An example of this could be the khans of the (proto-) Bulgars or Avars, and later in the east the Scandinavian Varangians (Rus), who united large regions of Rus' into one empire, conducting trade and collecting tribute,” the publicist continues.

“This thin upper layer of aliens could enjoy their military and political superiority for only a few generations. Then they were simply absorbed into the culture of the conquered Slavs,” the author of the article believes.

There is an opinion everywhere that the real history of the Slavs begins with the Christianization of Rus'. It turns out that before this event the Slavs did not seem to exist, since, one way or another, a person, reproducing, inhabiting the territory, leaves behind a trace in the form of a system of beliefs, writing, language, rules governing the relationship of fellow tribesmen, architectural buildings, rituals, legends and legends.

Based on modern history, writing and literacy came to the Slavs from Greece, law - from Rome (there have long been great doubts about Rome and the corresponding Empire. For more details, see the article “Roman fantasies”. - D.B.), religion – from Judea.

Raising the Slavic topic, the first thing that Slavism is associated with is paganism. But let me draw your attention to the essence of this word: “language” means people, “nik” - none, unknown, i.e. a pagan is a representative of an alien, unfamiliar faith. Can we be gentiles and pagans to ourselves?

The Christian religion came from Israel, just as history came from the Jewish Torah. Christianity has existed on Earth for only 2000 years, in Rus' - 1000. Considering these dates from the perspective of the Universe, they seem insignificant, because the ancient knowledge of any people goes far beyond these figures. It’s strange to think that everything that existed long before Christianity was developed, collected, passed on from generation to generation - heresy and delusions. It turns out that all people on Earth have lived for centuries in illusion, self-deception and delusion.

Returning to the Slavs, how were they able to create so many beautiful works of art: literature, architecture, architecture, painting, weaving, etc., if they were ignorant forest dwellers? Raising the richest Slavic-Aryan Heritage, the Slavs appeared on Earth long before representatives of other nations. Previously, the term “earth” had the same meaning as the Greek name “planet”, i.e. a celestial object moving in its orbit around the sun. Our Earth had the name Midgard, where “mid” or “middle” means middle, “gard” means city, city, i.e. the middle world (remember the shamanic idea of ​​the structure of the Universe, where our Earth was connected with the middle world).

About 460,500 years ago, our ancestors landed on the north pole of Midgard-Earth. Since that period, our planet has undergone significant changes, both climatic and geographical. In those distant times, the North Pole was a continent rich in flora and fauna, the island of Buyan, on which lush vegetation grew, which our ancestors settled in. The Slavic Family consisted of representatives of four nations: Da'Aryans, Kh'Aryans, Rasens and Svyatorus.

The Da'Aryans were the first to arrive on Midgard-Earth. They came from the Star System of the constellation Zimun or Ursa Minor, the land of Paradise. The color of their eyes - gray, silver - corresponded to the sun of their system, which was called Tara. They named the northern continent, where they settled, Daariya. Next came the Kh'Aryans. Their homeland is the constellation Orion, the land of Troar, the sun - Rada - green, which is imprinted in the color of their eyes.

Then the Svyatorus arrived - blue-eyed Slavs from the constellation Mokosh or Ursa Major, who called themselves Svaga. Later, brown-eyed Rasens appeared from the constellation Rasa and the land of Ingard, the Dazhdbog-Sun system or modern beta Leo.

If we talk about the nationalities belonging to the four Great Slavic-Aryan Clans, then from the Da'Aryans came the Siberian Russians, northwestern Germans, Danes, Dutch, Latvians, Lithuanians, Estonians, etc. From the Kh'Aryan Family came the Eastern and Pomeranian Rus, Scandinavians, Anglo-Saxons, Normans (or Muromets), Gauls, and Belovodsk Rusichs. The clan of Svyatorus - blue-eyed Slavs - is represented by northern Russians, Belarusians, Polans, Poles, East Prussians, Serbs, Croats, Macedonians, Scots, Irish, Asses from Iria, i.e. Assyrians. The grandchildren of Dazhdbozhy, the Rasens are the Western Rosses, the Etruscans (Russian ethnicity or, as the Greeks called them, these Russians), Moldavians, Italians, Franks, Thracians, Goths, Albanians, Avars, etc.

The ancestral home of our ancestors is Hyperborea (Boreas - north wind, hyper - strong) or Daaria (from the first Slavic family of Da'Aryans who populated the Earth) - the northern continent of Midgard-Earth. Here was the source of ancient Vedic knowledge, grains of which are now scattered throughout the Earth among various peoples.

But our ancestors had to sacrifice their homeland to save Midgard-Earth. In those distant times, the Earth had 3 satellites: the Moon Lelyu with a revolution period of 7 days, Fattu - 13 days and the Month - 29.5 days. The Dark Forces from the technogenic galaxy of 10,000 planets (darkness corresponds to 10,000), or, as they also call it, the Pekel World (i.e., the lands there are not yet fully developed, just “baking”) took a fancy to Lelya and deployed their forces on her and directed their blow to Midgard-Earth.

Our ancestor and Supreme God, Tarkh, the son of God Perun, saved the Earth, defeating Lelya and destroying the kingdom of the Kashcheevs (Tarkh did not destroy the kingdom of the Koshcheevs, but only their base on the moon Lele. For more information about this, see the book by Academician N. Levashov “Russia in Distorting Mirrors -1" . - D.B.). Hence the custom of beating eggs on Easter, which symbolizes the victory of Tarkh Perunovich over Kashchei, a mortal demon who found his death in an egg (a prototype of the Moon).

This event happened 111,814 years ago and became a new starting point for the Great Migration. So the waters of Lelya poured onto Midgard-Earth, flooding the Northern Continent. As a result, Daaria sank to the bottom of the Arctic (Icy) Ocean. This became the reason for the Great Migration of Slavic clans from Daria to Rasenia along the isthmus to the lands lying to the south (the remains of the isthmus were preserved in the form of the Novaya Zemlya islands).

The Great Migration lasted 16 years. Thus, 16 became a sacred number for the Slavs. The Slavic Svarog circle or zodiac, consisting of 16 Heavenly Halls, is based on it. 16 years is a full part of the circle of years of 144 years, consisting of 16 years passing through 9 elements, where the last 16 year was considered sacred.

Gradually, our ancestors populated the territory from the Ripeian mountains, covered with burdock, or the Ural, which means lying near the Sun: U Ra (Sun, Light, Radiance) L (bed), to Altai and the Lena River, where Al or Alnost is the highest structure, hence reality - repetition, reflection of Alness; tai – peak, i.e. Altai is both mountains containing the richest mine deposits, and a center of energy, a place of Power. From Tibet to the Indian Ocean in the south (Iran), later in the southwest (India).

106,786 years ago, our ancestors again built Asgard (the city of Asov) at the confluence of Iriya and Omi, erecting Alatyr-Mountain - a temple complex 1000 Arshin high (more than 700 m), consisting of four pyramid-shaped Temples (Temples), located one above the other .

And so the Holy Race settled: the Clans of the Ases - the Gods living on Earth, the Country of the Ases throughout the territory of Midgard-Earth, multiplied and became the Great Family, forming the country of the Ases - Asia, in modern terms - Asia, building the state of the Aryans - Great Tartary.. .
