Synopsis

At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Bulgarian historian and University of Berlin professor Gancho Tsenov observed:
“Large portions of official European history of the past two thousand years—particularly the history of Eastern Europe—are based on assumptions, opinions, and speculation, and have little in common with the real history of the continent and its inhabitants.”
This book takes that challenge seriously. Drawing on historical sources, linguistic evidence, archaeology, and modern genetic research, it re-examines entrenched narratives of European antiquity and the early Middle Ages, separating inherited dogma from verifiable evidence.
It aims to strip away layers of ideological accretion and restore a more coherent and empirically grounded picture of Europe’s past.
