HELIOPHYSICS, ECLIPSES & SPACE MISSIONS WORKSHOP, Gorno-Altaysk, 4-6 August 2008 Ancient Chronologies: FOMENKO’s Hypothesis vs Solar Eclipses Léo DUBAL virtual laboratory for archaeometry Invention of a Linear Time Scale, Fomenko’s Findings & Hypothesis, Modeling Delta T, Measuring LOD & Tides, Retrodiction of Solar Eclipses How Robust is Common Chronology ? Abstract : LLR & SLR data, collected over the last 45 years, provide crucial data over the time behaviour of the Length Of Day, i.e. LODs range of fluctuation at fortnightly, seasonaly, yearly and decenial level. Those limits comfort our smooth Earths deceleration Model explaining all reliable past observations of solar eclipses, including the one which occured during the reign of Akhenaton, 3345 years ago.

1583: Revolution in Natural Philosophy Galileo GALILEI noticed pendulum might be used to keep time… The son of Julius Caesar « Della SCALA » invented : Julian Days’ linear time scale the ideological « causal » tool so badly needed by the Reform Joseph Just SCALIGER born in Agen. 1572: Escaped the St Barthélemy’s massacre…...flew to Geneva… nominated Professor of Philosophy 1606: Invention of Chronology Thesaurus temporum (Repertory of dates) HELIOPHYSICS, ECLIPSES & SPACE MISSIONS WORKSHOP, Gorno-Altaysk, 4-6 August 2008

SE the very first event dated in terms of CE (Common Era) Death of LOUIS I, usually assumed : / Sunrise at St-Gallen: 03:17 UT add 8h30, gives 12:47 UT while 5MCSE retrodicts 12:38 UT.... P robably a copy 60 years afterfacts: the Common Era Dating System was not yet in use, and the chronological order is not respected, Eclipse’s report corroborated by "Chronicon" of ANDREAS Presbyter Bergomas : Indictione tertia sic fuit sol obscuratus in hoc mundo, et stellas in celo apparebant, 3. Nonas Magias, ora nona, in laetanias Domini, quasi media ora. Facta est tribulatio magna. Cumque hoc populus intenderent, multi extimabant, quod iam amplius hoc seculum non staret; sed dum haec angustia contemplarent, refulsit sol et quasi tremidus in antea umbraculam fugire cepit. Ipsa vero nocte sequenti prope matutino facta est lux quasi in die. Haec signa in celo conperta, doctores in suorum monitiones dixerunt: Estote, fratres, parati; quia adimpletum est quod in evangelio Dominus dixit: cum haec signa videritis, scitote, quia prope est die Domini magnus et manifestus ? Sequenti autem mense Iunio Hludowicus imperator defunctus est, suosque dies finivit in pace. Indictione tertia : 3rd year of the 35th indiction, an ecclesiastic fiscal period introduced by CONSTANTIN after victory over MAXENTIUS on In laetinias Domini refers to Rogation-Monday, -Tuesday & -Wednesday before Holy Thursday: was a Wednesday ! Probably a contemporary report: chronological order respected, eclipse followed by the emperor’s death.
