A nation that does not know its past has no future. With this phrase of Mikhail Lomonosov, we will open a new series of materials about the architectural heritage. The thought of the great scientist can be supplemented with the following - without knowing the past, it is impossible to consciously act in the present. This is the problem that modern architects and people in general face. Therefore, we will engage in pure theory, so that practical activity is meaningful. Every day there is more and more new information from independent historians-alternativeists and simply sane people who objectively assess our past. This information covers a variety of topics, including the construction industry. Our current task is to bring to a common denominator the many disparate materials of free researchers in the fields of culture, society and architecture, since these categories of information are indivisible. It is impossible to say with certainty that the proposed hypothesis is true, but it explains the things that official science attributes to religiosity, illiteracy and the obsession of our ancestors. Also, the new theory successfully draws parallels with myths and legends, they become real chronicles. There is no need to give much evidence here, they are presented in more detail by the authors, the links to which are at the end of the article.

To begin with, it is necessary to describe a more plausible model of the society of the past, in comparison with the one put forward by academic science. Its plausibility consists in an honest look at the preserved objects and architecture, without typical explanations that reduce everything to religious convictions, megalomania and unreasonable wastefulness of bygone generations. We will not touch on very distant times, at most we will limit ourselves to two to three thousand years, since it is extremely difficult to understand the true chronology even with the help of alternative scientists. With proper names, too, everything is complicated, the official versions are distorted and confused, and it is not easy to get access to the primary sources, therefore we will operate with generalized concepts and refer to some literary monuments. It is impossible to judge architecture by separating it from reality, events and tradition, so that further narration will be extensive.

Our past is a series of ups and downs. The redivision of the world has already been carried out many times, the reason for this was the wars and the catastrophes caused by them on a planetary level. Power passed from hand to hand and gradually simplified, changed and transformed, since after another shock it was difficult to restore its former greatness. This was reflected both in society and in architecture. In this regard, we are able to draw conclusions only for those periods, the material evidence of which has come down to our time. But this does not mean that one can correctly interpret the consistency, political and ideological affiliation and other subtleties. Despite the complexities, the overall picture is emerging. An honest look at the past becomes possible when people with specialized activities get down to business, that is, different aspects of the heritage are assessed for plausibility by the masters of their craft. An experienced blacksmith can describe the real technology of making armor, a tailor - clothes, architecture and construction are the same.

Heritage

It is impossible to cover all the heritage of our Earth in one article, so for now we will restrict ourselves to describing the most stable and diverse period, which is quite far from us. Let's also take into account that a view through the prism of global architecture will be specific. Let's start with a typology of intelligent life forms on our Earth. Society, in the reliably foreseeable past, was physiologically divided into several levels: the Gods are the rulers, the Children of the Gods are the elite, the Grandchildren or descendants of the Gods are the working class or ordinary people, and the archanthropes are the degraded representatives of dead cultures. All types of intelligent and not very intelligent had a different height, level of consciousness and origin. It is obvious that the first ancestors are the Gods, most likely the very inhabitants of the Northern continent and Atlantis. In parallel with them, there are degraded peoples to the state of monkeys. With the highest level of technology, surpassing the methods of modern genetic engineering, the Gods domesticated the savages, bringing them closer to their condition. The more effort was invested, the better the result was. This is how Children with a slightly lesser power and Grandchildren were formed - cultivated to an acceptably reasonable level. It is possible that the Children are the result of the degradation of the Gods themselves, but this is a controversial issue, the fact is that these three categories, together with savages, are clearly traced in relation to archaeological finds and legends. The issue with archanthropus is controversial, there are versions that they were created artificially, and over time became a general problem, also grown new and degraded ancients could exist in parallel, the fact is only in their presence.

According to one of the versions, the increase in the level of anthropomorphic creatures, so to speak, their domestication and humanization, was carried out by remote transmission of the genome of the Gods into the surrounding earthly space. The closer the natives lived to the source of the broadcast, and the longer the exposure lasted, the higher the result was. New generations of children outnumbered their primitive parents by orders of magnitude. Other technologies are also acceptable, such as direct transformation in laboratories, but this is no longer so important. The very fact of an external source of transformation is important, which testifies to the absence of the very principle of evolution. By the way, there is another opinion that all the manipulations of the transfer of the Divine gene to degraded peoples, with their subsequent transformation, were necessary to preserve the Gods in a different capacity in the changed conditions. In addition to genes, knowledge, culture and technology were given, equal to the understanding of cultivated creatures.

Many sacred writings, chronicles and other literature tell about the division of society according to appearance and consciousness. For example, in the Elder Edda, in the speeches of Alvis, the whole variety of humanoid creatures of the past is described. These include: people, Assy, Vani, Alva, Dwarfs (or tswergs), Yotuny and Gods. It is noteworthy that they all live next door to each other on Earth and in its depths. Let's make a note - in all Slavic peoples, including the Scandinavian, the Gods are divided into heavenly and earthly, that is, beings in the flesh representing the height of the perfection of material life. Here you can draw parallels between the names, correlating Assov and Vanov with the Children of the Gods, but we will not go into these details now, it is better to use universal terms.

By the way, confirmation of differences in the appearance of the population can be found in the works of painting and sculpture. For example, in Egyptian battle images, the pharaohs and elite warriors are superior to others in stature. In the culture of the Sumerians, a similar situation is observed in bas-reliefs. The cultures of Maya, India or Dravidia and many others repeat the same theme. Therefore, this is not an allegory of seniority, but a literal interpretation of reality. A separate place is occupied by sculptures in St. Petersburg, on which Gods or Children of Gods are depicted, obviously, in full size, and next to them are ordinary people in one composition. This can be seen, for example, on the facade of the New Hermitage. It would be naive to attribute such decisions to the creative idea of the sculptor.

Next, let's move on to social structure and connections. The gods, along with the elite, live in closed cities with walls and fortifications. Such fortifications are also sometimes fenced off rather large areas of a general nature. These cities and areas are partly served by people whose level of consciousness is sufficient to carry out the simple duties entrusted to them. Walls, on the other hand, serve as protection from archantropians, who do not pose a serious threat and are not capable of organized military action. Outside the gated areas, most of the people who work in agriculture and supply the cities with their produce also live. They are also fenced off from the savages by walls, ramparts and other fortifications, their structures are much simpler and more modest than closed cities and are comparable, rather, to the Middle Ages. Despite the rigid division of classes, this society cannot be called slave-owning. Here everyone is engaged in what corresponds to his level of excellence. Let's not talk about the number of freedoms and the right to development, as well as new genetic modification, this is not so important for the current topic.

Based on the understanding of the high level of development of that civilization, the fact of the globality of the world of the past becomes obvious. Now it is called by some a "planetary power", which, changing its state, held out until the beginning of the 20th century. Moreover, the world has always been governed, had no blank spots, with the exception of areas in which interest was diminished. The balance was maintained for a certain time, but everything ends. Wars and catastrophes gradually led to the disappearance of the Gods, and after that the Asss, we will call the Children of the Gods so, for the sake of simplicity of the story. According to the most plausible version, the progenitors left the planet about 11,000 years ago. Also permissible are incestuous unions between different types of intelligent, as a result of which the indicators of genetic affiliation were averaged, and there could no longer be purebred powerful Asss, although they existed in small numbers about 500 years ago. On the other hand, the savages gradually disappeared, partly killed in disasters, partly genetically cultivated, and, again, as a result of incest. Now the world is represented by people with varying complexity of the energonic structure of blood, but we will not continue this topic so as not to create grounds for strife. Before moving on to the next section, we will make an important note for a correct understanding of heritage - events, technology, knowledge and everything related to intelligent beings moves in time not linearly up or down, but along an infinite sinusoid, at least in our world it is it happens that way.

The architectural aspect of the ancient period

As mentioned earlier, architecture is always rational and proportional to technology, goals and users. It is this principle, in conjunction with the description of the diversity and hierarchy of intelligent beings, that explains the features of the architectural heritage. According to the results of the activities of alternative researchers, our world has always been global and possessed a high level of technology. Therefore, technology, culture, architecture and other spheres of life should have been as widespread and united in performance in the past as they are now. It is no longer a secret for anyone that the unity of architecture was expressed in the so-called Antique style, which has been used for many thousands of years. But official science thinks linearly, not allowing many things, and simply hides others, such are its instructions for now. In the same periods in the neighboring territories there are majestic cities and palaces along with rough log cabins and clay huts. All this is explained by different levels of the hierarchy and physiological differences. Each level of intelligent rulers was given suitable technologies for physical needs and tasks to be performed, which was reflected in the architecture as well. For now, let's deal with a more ancient period, with the largest typology of life and architecture.

Differences in physiology played a major role. Obviously, the Gods, with a growth of about 8-10 meters, needed buildings proportional to them, with a height of floors of at least 12-15 meters. The Asss or Children of the Gods have a similar situation, the height of 5 - 6 meters set the corresponding proportions of the buildings. This is what explains the size of the gates and doors in the surviving temples, castles, palaces and structures that are now attributed to the cult type. The height of the ceilings and their highly artistic finishing at high heights also testify in favor of the proposed theory. For an ordinary person, this does not make sense, due to the laboriousness and inability to see high details. If the size of door and window openings can still be pulled by the ears to the idea of a false ego, vanity and megalomania of "little" rulers and priests, then this number will not work with steps of half a meter or more. A detailed analysis of the gate shows the presence of special small doors designed for people and empty places for attaching huge handles and locks. The main doors are usually not opened now, and the fittings of heroic dimensions have been successfully removed. The examples can be continued, but let's stop for now.

There are many examples of large-scale structures. First of all, these are, of course, the terraces of Baalbek, as the most monumental buildings in the world. The adaptation for people, perhaps, was carried out later, namely the organization of the steps, but the proportions of the structures surpass all existing analogues. We will not focus on the general style for all regions, this is already obvious. Gothic cathedrals in European countries and temples in St. Petersburg continue this theme. Capitols in North America and "historic" buildings from former colonial countries are also monumental. But there is one detail here. Almost all of these structures have undergone reconstruction over time. The internal space was divided into several floors, openings were reduced, stairs were built in, steps were crushed. It is not difficult to divide one tall window into two floors, just as it is not difficult to change the railings of the stairs in terms of height. This work was carried out very skillfully, so that at first glance it is not always possible to distinguish perestroika. But this process is objective, in view of the changes taking place in society.

In parallel with the Gods and Assami, ordinary people live in closed cities, for whom housing proportional to them is intended. An example is the Roman insuls - these are multi-storey residential buildings, some old houses and upper floors of the palaces of St. Petersburg, Greek atrium houses, and much more. By the way, in other parts of the world, except for Europe, mass and individual housing of those periods has hardly survived. For ordinary people, the opportunity is given to serve large-scale objects. For this purpose, all palaces and castles have floors with appropriate dimensions, they can be easily identified on the facade by the windows. In general, part of the architecture of the cities of the Gods is adapted for all types of population. Perhaps these changes were made in later periods. Initially, no one was allowed into the cities of the Gods.

As mentioned above, the other, most of the cultivated people live outside the closed cities, are mainly engaged in agriculture and the extraction of natural resources. There is a constant trade turnover between cities and outer settlements, most likely on favorable terms. The long duration of the existence of this system speaks of its quality. Usually tyranny and dictatorship don't last long, but let's get back to architecture. External settlements include the familiar fortified formations of the medieval type; an example is the Slavic settlement with the adjacent rural lands. The construction technologies of the Gods are no longer directly involved here, in connection with which wooden, brick and stone buildings prevail, for the construction of which, nevertheless, the technique of the permitted level is used. The proportions and typology of the architecture also correspond to the physical needs of the inhabitants. Defensive structures are intended, again, to protect against uncultured savages. By the way, according to some versions, there were no wars in those days. The material evidence of this type of architecture, dating back to the distant past, of course, has not survived, but the very principle of technological and mechanized construction - conservative, but practical, lasted until the beginning of the 20th century.

Archanthropists or degraded peoples objectively do not need architecture. But in their life, for various reasons, over time, developed people and even Gods penetrate, as evidenced by some legends around the world. As a result, they not only acquired skills, but also evolved in different ways. Knowledge never arises by itself, but is given ready-made. The transition from caves to huts, dugouts, huts and other structures is not a secret. The official science presents primitive architecture and life in general as a traditional society of primitive people. The closer the events approached the present, the less the difference between them and the rest of the population became. There is also the likelihood of periodic decline in human society, but these are special cases. Some alternative researchers, who perceive the presence of high technologies in the past, are surprised by the rough log cages, black-heated dugouts and harsh objects of labor on the territory of the settlement of the Slavic peoples. All this does not fit with the greatness of the hidden culture, wooden architecture, folk wisdom and knowledge of the universe from our ancestors. But the point is that all this applies to recently humanized beings. By the way, their world is clearly shown in the series "Wolfhound" and, accordingly, in a series of books.

We will put together a mosaic of the heritage of different peoples and cultures. In stone, fortified cities and districts built in the classical style, Gods live and rule. The second most important class or elite of these places of the settlement are the Assy - the children of the Gods. A small part of the human population lives and works there, for which a partial adaptation of the monumental architecture has been made. Outside the cities, there are fortified settlements of developed people, engaged mainly in agriculture, crafts and resource extraction, effective technologies and culture to which were given by the Gods or their messengers. The rest of the territory is inhabited by gradually humanizing savages. It turns out that in one time period there are 3 states of technology, art, culture and other spheres of life. The history, successfully rewritten by Miller, Schletzr and similar figures, masterly reshaped the real picture, turning one part into legends, another into fiction and folklore, some fragments, in particular primitive society, are excessively exaggerated, others are compressed and cut out. The period of stability and prosperity is mainly described here, we will touch on the rest of the periods in subsequent parts. To be continued.
