History: Fiction or Science? The Issue with Antiquity

NASA research of Earth-Moon mechanics by astrophysicist Robert Newton leads mathematicians of MSU to a breakthrough in the chronology of Antiquity. "Antiquity" was followed by many centuries of "Dark Ages" of stagnation and decline. Then, during the Renaissance, the Classical Age reappears as a learned crowd of humanists and clergy that invented "ancient" Greek and Latin languages, wrote "antique" masterpieces under "antique"-sounding aliases. The talented artists, painters and sculptors of 15-18th century mass-produced required paraphernalia. Renaissance was on! The demand for "antique"-labeled articles that fetched solid prices was high. "Antiquity" was sold to the public lock, stock and barrel. The mythical Classical Age came into being from misdating medieval events by hundreds and thousands of years. "Antiquity" meme is planted into defenseless young brains. Kids love tales and don't ask teachers awkward questions.
