The version of World history generally accepted today is based on presumptions. You might rightfully object that there are zillions of historical documents, manuscripts, ancient papyri, parchments, old and not so old books, buzzing with references to, from and about the past. There appears to be enough historical material to completely reconstruct the glorious past! Yes, there are more than enough 'documents' to blind you forever; enough to lead you astray from the paths of sound reason and logic. Yes, there is enough material to generate a further million of dazzling Hollywood blockbusters, such as "Gladiator" with the convincing acting of Russell Crowe; enough sizzling ideas for a further billion of books, such as Da Vinci code. Everyone wrongly presumes that the reconstruction of the past is simple. One takes an ancient chronicle, translates it into contemporary language, and that's it. History is reconstructed. Too bad, it's not. less
