Facts about a different history of Rus' The famous French cartographer Jean Baptiste Bourguignon de Anville (1697-1782) published more than 200 maps. In the preface to the Atlas of Maps of China, Chinese Tartary and Tibet (1737) we find a lot interesting information about the life of people of that era. In addition, a description of facts that are completely incredible at first glance, which, if you use a little common sense, are explained and themselves interpreted by many seemingly unrelated non-academic scientific hypotheses. Below is an excerpt from a description of the life and beliefs of Bukharians. This is not a literal translation, but rather an incomplete retelling with quotations of the most interesting passages. The map shows Big Bukhara, bordering on the southeast with Small Bukhara. It’s the residents of the latter that we’ll be talking about. The Frenchman distinguishes Big Bukhara from Small Bukhara. They are separated by the Hindu Kush (?) (Parapomisus). In the preface to the French Atlas, unique information about Rus' is written. Here is a description of the borders of Little Bukhara: “Located between 36 and 42°N. In the east it borders with Mongolia and the Chinese deserts, in the south with the deserts of India, in the west with Greater Bukhara and Persia, and in the north with Mongolia and Eastern Kalmykia.” The country extends for almost 1000 km. For reference: in the photo, Bukhara is located under the 40th parallel. The management structure of Malaya Bukhara is curious. As is the name of one of its rulers, Gypsy-Araptan (possible reading Tsigan or Zigan. Zigan-Araptan), nephew of Bosto-Cham (khan? Bosto-Cham), who, together with his Kalmyks, conquered the country. For every 10 families or houses there was one foreman, ten foreman reported to their boss. The last ten, already supervising 1000 families or houses, reported to the Great Governor, elected from the crown princes of Bukhara. Chiefs of all levels were required to report all incidents to a superior and resolve controversial issues in their subordinate territory. Thanks to such an organization, peace and order reigned in the country. The Bukhara people were not a warlike people, but at the call of the governor they could quickly gather 20,000 warriors, one out of every ten houses. The weapons consisted of bows, swords, and spears. Some had guns or arquebuses. The richest could afford to wear chain mail. The houses are made of stone, there is little furniture. Food for the Bukharians was prepared by slaves captured or bought in neighboring countries , incl. Kalmykia and Russia. Next, the author describes something resembling... dumplings (“chopped meat wrapped in dough, the product has the shape of a croissant”). In winter, if Bukharans went on trips, the dumplings were perfectly preserved in the cold. Moreover, the cooking process is also described: frozen dough with minced meat was cooked in boiling water! So much for Siberian dumplings. By the way, Bukharians used tablecloths everywhere. And from drinks - tea, black tea with added salt, milk and butter. The preface to the French Atlas contains unique information about Rus'. The description of the appearance of the inhabitants is interesting. Most of them are dark-skinned and black-haired, but often there are white-skinned, slender and beautiful residents (fort blancs, beaux & bienfaits). Isn’t this fact the best confirmation of the version expressed by A. Klyosov, N. Levashov and many others that the Aryans were divided in Siberia, and one part of them, having circled the Himalayas from the west, populated the north of Hindustan, the east of Iran and nearby areas?! ! Another debunked myth about the primacy of French cosmetics: de Anville describes women who paint their nails red, making varnish from a plant (Kena). The Frenchman was also amazed to discover that all the residents of Malaya Bukhara wear... panties! A fact far from typical of the French themselves at that time. And soon for the future France. It was noted that residents wear unusually light leather boots made in Russia. But there is no limit to surprise at how deeply the cultures of the Russians themselves and the Bukharians of that time intersect. “The only money they have are copper pennies (Copeiks, with a capital letter in the text, and the -s in French indicates the plural), weighing one spool (Solotnik), about a third of an ounce.” And let them not tell us, after such facts, that there was no single state of Tartary, in which the Russians were the state-forming people! And that the Russians lived in pits covered with branches... And now, perhaps, the most interesting, even shocking part. Let us not forget that this atlas was compiled by order of the Jesuits who traded in China. The order was given in 1709. Therefore, the nature of the following retelling is dictated, of course, by the wishes of the customers. “The language and religion of the Bukharians differ from the neighboring Persian and Turkic ones, but in some ways they have something in common with them. The inhabitants have their own Al-Koran, which is the Christian Old Testament, where many places have been changed or falsified.” Stop, we were taught completely differently: the Bible is one thing, and the Koran is something else. This is, firstly. And secondly, let's use common sense. Who actually cut down the texts of the Old Testament, who falsified them, the Jesuits with other Catholics or the peoples of the deserts and mountains distant from Rome and Byzantium? Once again: it is more logical to assume that among, for example, the Bukharians, there are unlikely to be a sufficient number of Christian theologians capable of fundamentally reworking the texts of the Old Testament. Whereas nearby or in the Vatican itself, in numerous monasteries and religious schools in Europe, such specialists are a dime a dozen. Of course, the Jesuits insist that their version of the Old Testament is the true one. But is this really so? Are not the lines of this atlas evidence that the original version was preserved in the desert, and the Jesuit-Catholic one is a fake?!! There's even more to it than that. It’s time to remember N. Vashkevich, who was always amazed by the fact that it is and only in Russian that can explain the etymology of those Arabic words (and, to an even greater extent, the meaning of incomprehensible words and expressions in Arabic), about which the Arabs themselves say nothing they can. One such word is “Koran”. “In general, it must be said that outside of Islam, the common idea is that Islam begins with Mohammed. This is fundamentally wrong. Muslims themselves say that their religion begins with Ibrahim. It’s just that people did not immediately understand his establishment. In the Arabic understanding, Allah first gave the book to the Jews. But they didn't understand her. This is the Old Testament. Then God gave another book. Christians. But they weren’t up to par either. Allah had to give me another book, this time in the original language, in Arabic. This book is called the Koran, which means “reading” in Arabic. But, if you read this word the other way around, in Russian, you get NAROC, which means TESTAMENT in Russian (V. Dal). And that is not all. If you read the title of the book VEDA, in Arabic, you will again get “TESTAMENT” (وع د ВЪД). So there were not two covenants, but four!!! One way or another, it is advisable to distinguish between Islam and Mohammedanism...” But Vashkevich’s last phrase is clearly illustrated in the text of the atlas: “The Bukharians believe that the Al Koran was given to them not by Mohammed, but by God himself, who transmitted the book through Moses and the prophets. However, they are convinced that Mohammed gave many explanations of the book and illuminated the moral side contained in it. They are forced to admit all this and follow it.” Wow, N. Vashkevich definitely could not read this text, because he does not speak French, and his conclusions coincide with what was written by an eyewitness 300 years ago! No, it was not for nothing that the crescent moon was placed on the crosses of old Orthodox churches, no matter how today the clergy explain this fact... Let us pay tribute to Fomenko and Nosovsky, who asked many questions about the connection between Rus' and Arab artifacts in its history. However, we will not go deeper and find out why in A. Nikitin’s “Walkings across Three Seas” Russian freely turns into Arabic script and then vice versa, but let’s get acquainted with the cartographer’s story about the Bukhara version of the birth of Christ. “So, the Holy Virgin was a poor orphan when her distant relatives decided who would take her in. They could not come to an agreement, so they cast lots: a feather was thrown into a jug of water, which soon sank. In turn, everyone dipped a finger into the water, and the one who pulled out a finger with a feather stuck to it took the girl to raise. Zakaria won. One day he went away for three days on business, locking the girl in the house and completely forgetting about her. When he returned, he was very afraid that she was either already dead or was dying. Imagine his amazement when, in a locked house, he found a table laden with food. According to the girl, God himself sent this to her. When she turned 14, she began to have natural female problems. The girl ran into the forest and began to swim in forest lake. Then an angel came down to her and announced that the girl would soon give birth. As a result, her son, Isaiah, grew up to become a famous prophet and studied many sciences. However, he was extremely unloved hometown , they simply hated him. And this hatred was so high that one day two robbers were hired who had to kill Isaiah at any cost. God, knowing this, took him to heaven and gave the criminals the image of Isaiah. The people dealt with the last two themselves...” How fundamentally different this is from the current Jesuit version, that God is so cruel that he allowed his own Son to be killed as a martyr! Here again you ask yourself the question: who really falsified the Old Testament? Next consideration. According to the Frenchman, in every Bukhara house there was a copy of the Al Koran or the Old Testament with a text that was unusual for us. The equal sign between these books is still surprising, a sign that was placed at least three centuries ago. Those. These are by no means Catholics, Franciscans or Jesuits who brought these specimens to the outskirts of the Christian world. Remember population estimates? 20,000 warriors, one out of every 10 houses, which means at least 200,000 houses. There are just as many copies of the book! For that time - mind-blowing numbers of book printing or rewriting? This means that the source of the texts is somewhere relatively close. Again we recall the hypothesis of Fomenko and Nosovsky, as well as numerous other versions and works, which say that Christ is either Andrew the First-Called, or someone else, but precisely a Russian person, someone who grew up in the environment of Russian Civilization. As we are assured, the first large-circulation printed book in Russia, “The Apostle,” appeared in the middle of the 16th century. However, logically speaking, if in our history, academic history, Tartary was absent, then, of course, there was also no printing in Tartary, right? Then how else can we explain the presence, if not hundreds of thousands, but at least tens of thousands of copies of the Old Testament, the contents of which, according to Catholics, are far from canonical? And this is only for Little Bukhara alone, but there was also Big (Great) Bukhara in the neighborhood, there were other countries nearby, the same Kalmykia, not to mention the vast expanses of Siberia, where at that time there were a great many cities. Who printed books for them, the Roman and Byzantine apostates? After all, you can’t rewrite such a quantity, especially in the desert... There is a lot of interesting things in the ten pages of the preface to the atlas of China, Chinese Tartary and Tibet. For example, that polygamy among the population was allowed, but it was looked upon with extreme disapproval. That the Bukharians are convinced that God lives not only in heaven, but that he is everywhere. That a husband, dissatisfied with his wife, could send her back to her parents, while he was obliged to give her all her property, including gifts made to her during their marriage. And a woman could leave her husband, although she could not take anything with her. There are a lot of interesting things, but let’s still try to comprehend what has already been written. There is already too much food for thought in it. The whole universe...

People in general are somewhat similar in their souls to the landscape and climate of the region in which they grew up. Those who live by the sea resemble a stream, ebb and flow. They leave and return, constantly moving and discovering new shores. Their words and love stories are like water flowing through their fingers, in perpetual motion. People living in the mountains had to fight for the right to live there. And, as soon as the mountains have submitted to them, people begin to defend them as their home, and if they see from afar that someone is rising towards them from the valley, they may well mistake him for an enemy. The people from the hills look at each other for a long time before greeting each other. They study, they slowly get used to it, but as soon as the defense is removed or the word is given, their obligations will be as strong as the mountain on which they live.

Gilles Courtemanche

Mikhail Prishvin
