Batu Khan

Known as the grandson of Genghis Khan, he extended the Mongol Empire north of the Khazar Sea, comparable to the realm of Attila the Hun: He conquered Kievan Rus & invaded Central Europe. According to the New Chronology, he's a duplicate of:

• Yaroslav Vladimirovich
• Yaroslav Vsevolodovich
• Ivan Danilovich

Yaroslav derives from Yarilo, who is also identified with Saint John, which becomes Ivan in Russian ...

The mainstream known territory of the Golden Horde is approximately equal to the Khazar Khaganate, both having Astrakhan as its possible capital, making their histories possible duplicates: Might its name refer to arrows used during their raids?

The mainstream known territory of the Golden Ring had to pay tribute to the Golden Horde. However, for the New Chronology, both are duplicates: Did mainstream historians use the Khazar Khaganate as inspiration for a Mongol Yoke?

According to mainstream history, the Golden Horde was later split into an eastern & western part, though it isn't clear which colour fits which compass point. The New Chronology, rejectants of that Mongol Yoke, suggests another division:

• Golden Horde: Great Russia or the Golden Ring, refering to the many golden onion domes
• Blue Horde: Little Russia or the Ukraine, crossed by many rivers, similar to Mesopotamia
• White Horde: White Ruthenia or the Muscovite Russia, where the "White Tsar" ruled

The White Horde stretched to Belarus, Prussia & the Balkan Peninsula: Did Batu Khan & his Venedi continue the conquest of his grandfather by reaching as far as Baetica & the Vatican? Another concentric circle of cities around Vladimir fits that suggestion ...

Hannibal Barcas

Famous for crossing the Alps with elephants & winning many battles against the Romans, this general never managed to conquer the eternal city & fled to Asia in the end, according to mainstream history. Some interesting questions arise:

• His campaign started on the Iberian Peninsula, but Elephas never lived in Europe. However, Iberia is a name used for two different regions: Could he have started from Caucasia?
• Carthage is located on the northern shores of Africa, but the name can also be found on another location: the district of Kadiköy in Istanbul bears the same etymology, could Dido have migrated to Anatolia instead?

The name Hannibal associates with the Phoenician deity Baal, sometimes honored by child sacrifice: It happened the worshippers ate the bodies, does "cannibalism" perhaps originate from "khan-i-baal", or "white khan"?

Hannibal Lecter is a famous cannibal in different movies, a character once performed by Anthony Hopkins, who also performed Titus Andronicus. If Tamora, also similar to Tomyris, refers to Tamar, Shakespeare might also hint to more similarities:

• Her name means figtree, whence the name Bethany comes: This is Bithynia, where Kadiköy is situated & Hannibal found shelter after his campaign ...
• Queen Tamar was shortly married to Yury Bogolyubsky, son of the Scythian Caesar, the character Tamora was shortly married to Saturninus, son of the dead emperor ...
• Bassianus is also an important high priest of the cult of Elagabalus, the solar variant of Baal, to whom the eldest son of Tamora might have been offered ...

The cannibal is the son of a Lithuanian duke & an Italian woman: Does this refer to the Veneti, who migrated from the Vistula to Veneto, where those Phoenicians found Venice? Might Latin actually have been derived from Lithuanian, or Latvian?

Samalas Eruption

In 1257 AD one of the largest volcanic eruptions took place on Lombok, causing worldwide catastrophies the subsequent years, possibly even resulting in the Little Ice Age. It was an outburst of similar strength as the well knows of Santorini, Vesuvius, Tambora & Krakatoa ...

In The Medieval Empire of the Israelites, the authors describe that glacial cores point out a catastrophe must have taken place around 1260 AD. Ten years later, scientists concluded Segara Anak was the result of that catastrophic eruption. For these authors, the mentioned year is a key to understand history, some important historical turning points took place around that time:

• The Mamluk Sultanate beat the Mongol Empire near Ain Jalut, a first major defeat for the conquering nomads (1260 AD)
• The Byzantines besieged Constantinopolis, ultimately resulting in its seizure by Alexios Strategiopoulos (1261 AD)
• The Castilians captured Cadiz, ending the Reconquista, only allowing tribute paying Nasrids on the peninsula (1262 AD)

Although at first glance these events seem unconnected to each other, some interesting questions arise:

• As the Mongols, the Byzantines got defeated first, however the latter ones were succesful one year later: Might the spring of Goliath refer to the spring near Constantinople, of which the nearby gate contributed to the surprising seizure?
• Cadiz means stronghold, while Constantinople is famous for its walls: Could it be the former ones captured it too under their pseudonym Castilians, although mainstream history claims otherwise?

Considering these similarities, is one real historical blueprint used to, at least partially, invent some fake histories for different regions, so creating some fake history & hiding some real history?

About one millenium earlier, around 536 AD, a volcanic eruption also caused extreme weather events & crop failures. Late in that year the troops of Flavius Belisarius seized Naples by using an abandoned aqueduct to capture the city by surprise: Is this a duplicate story of the mentioned seizure, as well as the seizure of Troy?
