How the Past Was Hidden

How humans were induced to dismiss memories of daily life in the past. Sun 10 April 2022

1. Rewrite remembered events as 'fictional' stories

Some of it was written up as ghost stories. So that later recollection could be explained away as "Ah yes, that ghost story by MR James..."

One technique seems to have been to take eyewitness accounts and local memories and re-write them as ghost stories or folklore. Three examples:

  1. 1889 Walter Rye's account of Cromer church's ghostly rising baby:

  2. Cromer Ghost Baby version 1

  3. Cromer Ghost Baby version 2

  4. Montagu Rhodes James' Lost Hearts from Ghost Stories of an Antiquary

Which was set - appropriately enough - at Aswarby Hall, Sleaford, Lincolnshire.

  1. Havelock the Dane. Grimsby's founding tale involves children being given to rich people, two having their throats slit and one being set adrift on the sea.

    Folklore about the Ghostly Hunt may be another example of this technique.

2. Rewrite frequent events as one-off events
3. Rewrite large-scale events as smaller-scale events
4. Rewrite events occurring in England as events occurring abroad:
5. Re-date events further back in the past (by mistake or on purpose)

There's so much evidence for this. One easy read that suggests this happened accidentally

This technique leaves a recognisable fingerprint. Over-used, the technique leaves fingerprints that are hard to erase.

6. Fictitious people
7. Forge documents

8. Modify dates of coin-dyes and buildings

As revealed by off-centre dates on coins:

An 'M' adds 1,000 years. Source: Skull and Bones and the added 1000 Years?

And changed dates on buildings:

Depends. Source: Old Paintings - Missing 1000 Years - Resurrecting Latin & the Old Gods?

The last one may be faked or may not be faked. The video is well worth watching for its analysis of the city of Rome's fake narrative.
