History: fiction or science?. Chronology 1

Jesus Christ was born in 1153 AD and crucified in 1186 AD. Unbelievable? Not since the release of the first volume in seven of "History: Fiction or Science?" series. This series crowns 30 years of research by Anatoly Fomenko and his colleagues. In Chapter I readers are reminded of when the...

Kevin McGrane - Russian Investigations

p. 16-17
George Williams kept himself fully abreast of developments in Russia, for in November 1861 we find Williams writing to the London Times newspaper defending recent actions taken by the Russian government in respect of the wearing of military uniforms by their students at university. Williams was also a contributor to the Guardian and The Christian Remembrancer, both of which ran articles about the 'Simonides Affair', which started in September 1862, and he met Simonides in Cambridge the following month at a meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science.40

40 This meeting, the thirty-second, was impressively large and took place from October 1-7 in Cambridge. Simonides stayed in Cambridge with his interpreter friend Leonidas Drachachis, and during the course of the week publicly displayed his forgeries. Rev. George Williams was Vice- President of the Sectional Committee on Geography and Ethnology and read the paper Rev. Dr. Mill's Decipherment of the Phoenician Inscription on the Newton Stone, Aberdeenshire upon which Simonides commented, claiming to be able to interpret the inscription and attempting to do so. This was just one month after his explosive 'revelation' in the Guardian, which would have been noticed by many of the delegates at the meetings. On October 7 he was led into Cambridge library and the facsimile of the portion of Codex Sinaiticus that Tischendorf had removed from Sinai in 1844 (43 leaves) was set before him, which he claimed to be a facsimile of his work.

Here is a question that I am just curious of your view, no right or wrong answer. Do you think that Simonides ideas about hieroglyphics may have had merit as improvements over Champollion and others. From my studies the whole area is murky!

I believe that Benedictus and the others had good knowledge in this field as well. I am not the only one to know, but bearing in mind that the Greeks knew hieroglyphics perfectly, they must have left behind a knowledge that was overshadowed by that of the French, etc. After all, in the period after the creation of the Greek state, the effort to disappear the knowledge of the Byzantines was great. I believe these thoughts are objective.
