The The Forbidden Forbidden History of History of Europe Europe The Chronicles and The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan Testament of the Aryan Nations Nations ““John Smith John Smith”” T The history of the world is littered with, and primed by, clashes between differing philosophical systems, and the civilisations intertwined with them. The 20th Century was characterised by an unrestrained will to destroy the ancient order, coupled with a frantic need to find something suitable to replace it, amid ever-growing piles of human corpses. What we are witnessing today, in the materialism, unspirituality, social dislocation and individualism of the 21st Century, is the aftermath of the Aryan order’s demise. This, dear reader, is the sanguine tale of its epic beginnings, and closing days. The Forbidden History of Europe The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan nations “John Smith” 2005 D E D I C A T I O N S This book is dedicated to a number of individuals who played an important part in this project - Firstly, no greater thanks can go to my family who patiently waited 10 years while their dad finished this book, and to my folks for their assistance when the going was really tough. Thanks also to the idiot who undid my wheel nuts (almost wiping out an entire family), not to mention the vile piece of of filth who cut through my brake hose causing my vehicle to spin out of control. A heartfelt thanks must go to those academics who reviewed this work, even those who didn’t want to make a public declaration, the more so because many of their colleagues are bound to see it as controversial. Through them I gained a much greater insight into how I might refine its presentation, plus rectify whatever inaccuracies were present in the infant manuscript. Above all this book is dedicated to the search for the Truth, and to the great scholars of the past, present and future. I N M E M O R I A M W . B R O . H . C .

One is entitled The True History of Christianity and the other a ‘right- wing’ version called The Forbidden History of Europe - The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan Nations. I felt compelled to do this so as to dispel accusations the original work was “White Supremacist propaganda”, an allegation I repeatedly encountered in the left wing bastions of the modern university system. Some academics point blank refused to evaluate the text upon seeing swastikas and the word Aryan, which even today is as taboo as ever. Any reader wishing to compare both copies will soon spot the difference. All rights reserved.

Could it really be that these talented ancients just drifted off into a coma of intellectual amnesia, or do our eyes deceive us? Their demise closed one whole chapter, one very major chapter, in human history. With their disappearance the guarded wisdom, secret building crafts and technology of the ancients seemingly evaporated amidst the dark and primitive ignorance of the countryside, amongst the very people who marvelled over such pathetically simple things as plough shares and scythes. General consensus is that under pressure from Christianity and Islam, all the Iranian Magi, and the pagan Gnostic philosophers of Egypt, Babylon and Greece, saw their respective religions as archaic, futile and illusory, and subsequently they abandoned their faiths without a second thought. But is it stretching the imagination too much to believe that they happily walked away from their idols, ceremonial rites and sanctuaries in droves, thereby relinquishing for all time everything that their ancestors had taught for the past one to two thousand years? In The Forbidden History of Europe you will learn they did nothing of the sort. Instead the most committed adherents of the ancient order chose to migrate to lands that afforded them safe repose, and with them the old ways lived on, even into the Middle Ages. For the greater part of them the Orient was a natural destination. To explain why this was so, we must regress to the age of the “Aryans” (the twice-born) and the Magi. Until now this phase of forced and self-imposed exile remained the forgotten years. Introduction Introduction Pan-European folklore is rife with tales of wizards, witches and warlocks, mystical figures so intriguing that they have endured in our imagination for more than a thousand years. In legend, pointy hats, brooms, lengthy robes, veils, long hair, beards, magic, astrology, gems and wands were their trademarks. Nowadays they feature in high- profile novels, spectacular movies, popular television shows and video games. With millions of dollars riding on them, they have truly become hot property. Despite this level of public adulation few scholars felt a need to explore the past for genuine evidence of their existence. Little wonder they are but a dubious flight of fantasy. As it happens 11 The Forbidden History of Europe - The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan the truth is altogether different. European wizards were, for the most part, adherents of the religion of the Magi, a faith of fire and sun-worship vigorously driven from Iran by Arab forces intent on introducing Islam to Persia, and bringing the ancient creed of the Magi to its knees. For those unfamiliar with the title, Magus is the singular and Magi the plural. The word Magians collectively relates to the Magi themselves, and their followers. Such then is the origin of the English word “magician”. Retracing the footsteps of the sages takes us back to Bronze Age Iran, a realm ruled by the tribe of the Medes. There its priestly caste of Magi revelled in arcana pertaining to the divine beings. To this can be added their impressive understanding of musical theory, politics, literature, medicine, mathematics, astrology, astronomy, meteorology and alchemy. Over the years their fame grew all the more, granting them exceptional renown and privilege throughout Persia, Egypt, Greece and Rome. Theirs was a race apart, for they and all their kindred had unique spiritual powers; powers to speak with angels and gods, to prophecy future events, to understand dreams, to converse with souls in the hereafter, to perform magic and the religious rites, to cast horoscopes, to heal and increase the fertility of nature. Their royal bloodline, passed on to their descendants, gave them these supernatural abilities, this second sight. Having beheld the remarkable gifts at their disposal, the common folk adored them as incarnate gods and goddesses. There’s one thing history amply demonstrates; things change. The march of time leaves nothing unscathed , even civilisations crumble away, crushed by the hungry wheels of that weighty juggernaut. In direct contrast to this maxim, history also confirms that some things never change. Tragic events are doomed to be relived by those unwilling to learn the lessons of prior ages. War begets war. It took a mere 20 years for the Muslims to go on the war path after the death of their prophet Mohammed. Between 642 and the first decade of the 8th century AD Arab Islamic forces pierced the vulnerable underbelly of Magian Iran, and across the Oxus river into the lands of the nomadic Turkic tribes. Tirelessly they annihilated the pre-Islamic Persian and Turkic cultures of the region, stealing for themselves the choicest jewels of Asia’s lucrative silk road ... Bokhara, Samarkand. It was political and missionary activity of a different kind. As the Arabs entrenched themselves throughout the newly-acquired Iran, remnants of the ousted Persian royal family, and the Magi of Zoroaster (an Aryan prophet who lived during the 6th Century BC) withdrew to Tabaristan near the Caspian Sea. Determined to preserve their people and faith from Islamic domination they established well-garrisoned settlements throughout Khoresmia, in conjunction with the region’s already sizeable Buddhist population. Yet even this refuge was destined to collapse in time. Location: The city of Khorezm, 712 AD, due east of the Caspian Sea, in the Land of the Sun. Khorezm, one of the last great bastions of the wizards, had fallen to Caliph Walid I. Islamic cavalry and footmen engaged the city’s last remaining defenders in pitched battles, as they seized control of the streets and public buildings. Smoke hung over it like a buzzard. Jumpy vultures swooped down on the many corpses littering its forlorn, sunburnt thoroughfares. Haunting screams reverberated around the dying city ... rape, people succumbing to wounds, weeping orphans. In the aftermath of the siege, its inhabitants were detained and questioned. Some if not many were executed, others deported to make way for the ensuing waves of Arab colonists. The Magi, the priesthood of astrologers and scientists so central to Iranian pre-Islamic culture, were not to be spared. To let them live was to invite a possible resurgence of the old faith. So they were put to death as encountered. They had governed large parts of Asia, served in the court of the Chinese Emperor, and studied alongside the priests, priestesses and philosophers of Greece, Rome, India and Egypt. Could it be that a religion so esteemed throughout antiquity should perish this ingloriously?Could it be that the Age of Wizards had ended? Arab soldiers rushed through the halls of the Herbadestans (Magian colleges), where wizards once trained. Rooms that formerly came alive with the orations of wise folk and academics stood deathly silent. All that remained was to destroy or commandeer the books kept by the wizards, a wealth of wisdom and higher learning accumulated by them since the Bronze Age. But as they furtively searched these institutions, they realised their worst nightmare had come true. Few writings were found... Evidently an unknown number of Magi had escaped their clutches. Under new suppression orders Persian writing was banned, Magian fire temples refurbished as mosques, and THE ARAB INVASION OF IRAN THE MAGI AND THEIR SPECIAL POWERS THE FALL OF KHOREZM 12 The Forbidden History of Europe - The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan non-Islamic Iranian dhimmis subjected to extensive public humiliation, heavy taxation and extortion. Over the next hundred years Islam spread like wild fire across North Africa, even as far west as Spain. Location: Spain, the flourishing Moorish Caliphate of Seville, under the governance of Abd ar-Rahman II, Anno Domini 845 If it wasn't for the massive invasion fleet mustered off shore, it would have been an otherwise normal day in Islamic Spain. The muezzin should have been standing atop the minaret, his wail calling the faithful to the mosque. Instead, fearful citizens looked seaward in horror as hundreds of serpent-prowed ships glided ashore. They had sailed far just to get there, all the way from Russia, under orders from their king. As the longships of the Northmen beached, their angry raiders leaping overboard into shallow surf, it became obvious that Seville was about to get a call from some old friends - Al Madjus, the Magi. By the time the invaders had settled their grudge, much of the city lay in tatters. You see the Magi had not vanished at all. In the shadow of the lofty Caucuses the exiles rebuilt their temples, and hundreds of kilometres of stone defensive works and towers, all designed to keep the Muslims at bay. Others went further afield into Armenia,Transcarpathia, the Balkans, Russia and Scandinavia, into the arms of an even older enemy, the Christians. It was in such places that they regrouped, reorganised and planned retributive military action. Over the next two hundred years, combined heathen Norse, Russian and Alanic forces repeatedly launched brave attacks against the Islamic, Jewish and Christian heartlands of the east, brazenly foraying into Iran, Byzantium, Anatolia and the Caucuses. They were here to stay. The venerable paganism of the wizards The venerable paganism of the wizards There is an old saying “to the victor go the spoils”. Our understanding of the nature and history of paganism has suffered greatly as a result of the Dark and Middle Ages, for it was during that tumultuous era that the Church sought to suppress and eradicate the ‘idolatrous’, ‘superstitious’ and ‘heathen’ beliefs of pre-Christian Europe in order to supplant it with the more ‘enlightened’ Christianity. For this reason, the Mediaeval churchmen did not seek to record the authentic traditions of the pagans at any great length. All we are left with are views of our ancestors parading about silvan woodlands, ‘devilishly’ dancing around bonfires, getting blind drunk, feasting, prostrating themselves before blocks of wood, venerating the sun and natural springs, sacrificing cattle, telling and retelling ‘blasphemous’ and ‘obscene’ myths, or “false histories”. We also hear of their incest and the worship of men and trees. Are we to believe that for thousands of years, Europeans had no religious sense at all, and delighted in the profane? Are we to accept that the heathen faith (or faiths) was as ridiculously baboonish as it has been portrayed; a feast of carnal longings and foolhardiness, and that it is only we who have genuine beliefs and morality? You are about to discover just how much information on the pagans has been preserved, only academics specialising in paganism and witchcraft studies have not bothered to pursue some of these very valuable clues to their ultimate conclusion, unashamedly for ideological reasons of a religious or political nature. In doing so they would have found an historical reconstruction greatly at variance with the current, almost nihilistic, interpretations of European paganism. So, what was paganism? In brief it is a Latin term first coined by the Romans; paganus: “villagers”. It is therefore a contrived and deceptively naive term that conceals an amazingly wide range of beliefs. The term “heathen” possesses a similar quality. In Olden Rus’, the word pogan’,2 which was derived from Latin, differed from other terms for “a pagan” like yazychnik3 or busorman.3 It meant “bad”, “filthy”, or “dirty”. Pogan’ is most likely a word used by Christians during the post-conversion era when referring to devotees of the “Old Faith”. Another interpretation is that it was used when speaking of certain pagans who deliberately defiled themselves with filth, or who had a different standard of hygiene. Throughout greater Europe the word “pagan” need not have applied merely to those who reverenced bonfires in towers or woodland clearings. Mediaeval clerics could just as easily use it when speaking of Muslims, or Jews, followers of “the Jewish superstition”. In the Hodoeporicon of St Willibald, Huneberc of Heidenheim terms the Arabs “pagan saracens”. Here formal religions, complete with their own holy texts, are derided as “paganism” and “superstition”.4 Surviving data suggests th...

The The Forbidden Forbidden History of History of Europe Europe The Chronicles and The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan Testament of the Aryan Nations Nations ““John Smith John Smith”” T The history of the world is littered with, and primed by, clashes between differing philosophical systems, and the civilisations intertwined with them. The 20th Century was characterised by an unrestrained will to destroy the ancient order, coupled with a frantic need to find something suitable to replace it, amid ever-growing piles of human corpses. What we are witnessing today, in the materialism, unspirituality, social dislocation and individualism of the 21st Century, is the aftermath of the Aryan order’s demise. This, dear reader, is the sanguine tale of its epic beginnings, and closing days. The Forbidden History of Europe The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan nations “John Smith” 2005 D E D I C A T I O N S This book is dedicated to a number of individuals who played an important part in this project - Firstly, no greater thanks can go to my family who patiently waited 10 years while their dad finished this book, and to my folks for their assistance when the going was really tough. Thanks also to the idiot who undid my wheel nuts (almost wiping out an entire family), not to mention the vile piece of of filth who cut through my brake hose causing my vehicle to spin out of control. A heartfelt thanks must go to those academics who reviewed this work, even those who didn’t want to make a public declaration, the more so because many of their colleagues are bound to see it as controversial. Through them I gained a much greater insight into how I might refine its presentation, plus rectify whatever inaccuracies were present in the infant manuscript. Above all this book is dedicated to the search for the Truth, and to the great scholars of the past, present and future. I N M E M O R I A M W . B R O . H . C .

One is entitled The True History of Christianity and the other a ‘right- wing’ version called The Forbidden History of Europe - The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan Nations. I felt compelled to do this so as to dispel accusations the original work was “White Supremacist propaganda”, an allegation I repeatedly encountered in the left wing bastions of the modern university system. Some academics point blank refused to evaluate the text upon seeing swastikas and the word Aryan, which even today is as taboo as ever. Any reader wishing to compare both copies will soon spot the difference. All rights reserved.

Could it really be that these talented ancients just drifted off into a coma of intellectual amnesia, or do our eyes deceive us? Their demise closed one whole chapter, one very major chapter, in human history. With their disappearance the guarded wisdom, secret building crafts and technology of the ancients seemingly evaporated amidst the dark and primitive ignorance of the countryside, amongst the very people who marvelled over such pathetically simple things as plough shares and scythes. General consensus is that under pressure from Christianity and Islam, all the Iranian Magi, and the pagan Gnostic philosophers of Egypt, Babylon and Greece, saw their respective religions as archaic, futile and illusory, and subsequently they abandoned their faiths without a second thought. But is it stretching the imagination too much to believe that they happily walked away from their idols, ceremonial rites and sanctuaries in droves, thereby relinquishing for all time everything that their ancestors had taught for the past one to two thousand years? In The Forbidden History of Europe you will learn they did nothing of the sort. Instead the most committed adherents of the ancient order chose to migrate to lands that afforded them safe repose, and with them the old ways lived on, even into the Middle Ages. For the greater part of them the Orient was a natural destination. To explain why this was so, we must regress to the age of the “Aryans” (the twice-born) and the Magi. Until now this phase of forced and self-imposed exile remained the forgotten years. Introduction Introduction Pan-European folklore is rife with tales of wizards, witches and warlocks, mystical figures so intriguing that they have endured in our imagination for more than a thousand years. In legend, pointy hats, brooms, lengthy robes, veils, long hair, beards, magic, astrology, gems and wands were their trademarks. Nowadays they feature in high- profile novels, spectacular movies, popular television shows and video games. With millions of dollars riding on them, they have truly become hot property. Despite this level of public adulation few scholars felt a need to explore the past for genuine evidence of their existence. Little wonder they are but a dubious flight of fantasy. As it happens 11 The Forbidden History of Europe - The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan the truth is altogether different. European wizards were, for the most part, adherents of the religion of the Magi, a faith of fire and sun-worship vigorously driven from Iran by Arab forces intent on introducing Islam to Persia, and bringing the ancient creed of the Magi to its knees. For those unfamiliar with the title, Magus is the singular and Magi the plural. The word Magians collectively relates to the Magi themselves, and their followers. Such then is the origin of the English word “magician”. Retracing the footsteps of the sages takes us back to Bronze Age Iran, a realm ruled by the tribe of the Medes. There its priestly caste of Magi revelled in arcana pertaining to the divine beings. To this can be added their impressive understanding of musical theory, politics, literature, medicine, mathematics, astrology, astronomy, meteorology and alchemy. Over the years their fame grew all the more, granting them exceptional renown and privilege throughout Persia, Egypt, Greece and Rome. Theirs was a race apart, for they and all their kindred had unique spiritual powers; powers to speak with angels and gods, to prophecy future events, to understand dreams, to converse with souls in the hereafter, to perform magic and the religious rites, to cast horoscopes, to heal and increase the fertility of nature. Their royal bloodline, passed on to their descendants, gave them these supernatural abilities, this second sight. Having beheld the remarkable gifts at their disposal, the common folk adored them as incarnate gods and goddesses. There’s one thing history amply demonstrates; things change. The march of time leaves nothing unscathed , even civilisations crumble away, crushed by the hungry wheels of that weighty juggernaut. In direct contrast to this maxim, history also confirms that some things never change. Tragic events are doomed to be relived by those unwilling to learn the lessons of prior ages. War begets war. It took a mere 20 years for the Muslims to go on the war path after the death of their prophet Mohammed. Between 642 and the first decade of the 8th century AD Arab Islamic forces pierced the vulnerable underbelly of Magian Iran, and across the Oxus river into the lands of the nomadic Turkic tribes. Tirelessly they annihilated the pre-Islamic Persian and Turkic cultures of the region, stealing for themselves the choicest jewels of Asia’s lucrative silk road ... Bokhara, Samarkand. It was political and missionary activity of a different kind. As the Arabs entrenched themselves throughout the newly-acquired Iran, remnants of the ousted Persian royal family, and the Magi of Zoroaster (an Aryan prophet who lived during the 6th Century BC) withdrew to Tabaristan near the Caspian Sea. Determined to preserve their people and faith from Islamic domination they established well-garrisoned settlements throughout Khoresmia, in conjunction with the region’s already sizeable Buddhist population. Yet even this refuge was destined to collapse in time. Location: The city of Khorezm, 712 AD, due east of the Caspian Sea, in the Land of the Sun. Khorezm, one of the last great bastions of the wizards, had fallen to Caliph Walid I. Islamic cavalry and footmen engaged the city’s last remaining defenders in pitched battles, as they seized control of the streets and public buildings. Smoke hung over it like a buzzard. Jumpy vultures swooped down on the many corpses littering its forlorn, sunburnt thoroughfares. Haunting screams reverberated around the dying city ... rape, people succumbing to wounds, weeping orphans. In the aftermath of the siege, its inhabitants were detained and questioned. Some if not many were executed, others deported to make way for the ensuing waves of Arab colonists. The Magi, the priesthood of astrologers and scientists so central to Iranian pre-Islamic culture, were not to be spared. To let them live was to invite a possible resurgence of the old faith. So they were put to death as encountered. They had governed large parts of Asia, served in the court of the Chinese Emperor, and studied alongside the priests, priestesses and philosophers of Greece, Rome, India and Egypt. Could it be that a religion so esteemed throughout antiquity should perish this ingloriously?Could it be that the Age of Wizards had ended? Arab soldiers rushed through the halls of the Herbadestans (Magian colleges), where wizards once trained. Rooms that formerly came alive with the orations of wise folk and academics stood deathly silent. All that remained was to destroy or commandeer the books kept by the wizards, a wealth of wisdom and higher learning accumulated by them since the Bronze Age. But as they furtively searched these institutions, they realised their worst nightmare had come true. Few writings were found... Evidently an unknown number of Magi had escaped their clutches. Under new suppression orders Persian writing was banned, Magian fire temples refurbished as mosques, and THE ARAB INVASION OF IRAN THE MAGI AND THEIR SPECIAL POWERS THE FALL OF KHOREZM 12 The Forbidden History of Europe - The Chronicles and Testament of the Aryan non-Islamic Iranian dhimmis subjected to extensive public humiliation, heavy taxation and extortion. Over the next hundred years Islam spread like wild fire across North Africa, even as far west as Spain. Location: Spain, the flourishing Moorish Caliphate of Seville, under the governance of Abd ar-Rahman II, Anno Domini 845 If it wasn't for the massive invasion fleet mustered off shore, it would have been an otherwise normal day in Islamic Spain. The muezzin should have been standing atop the minaret, his wail calling the faithful to the mosque. Instead, fearful citizens looked seaward in horror as hundreds of serpent-prowed ships glided ashore. They had sailed far just to get there, all the way from Russia, under orders from their king. As the longships of the Northmen beached, their angry raiders leaping overboard into shallow surf, it became obvious that Seville was about to get a call from some old friends - Al Madjus, the Magi. By the time the invaders had settled their grudge, much of the city lay in tatters. You see the Magi had not vanished at all. In the shadow of the lofty Caucuses the exiles rebuilt their temples, and hundreds of kilometres of stone defensive works and towers, all designed to keep the Muslims at bay. Others went further afield into Armenia,Transcarpathia, the Balkans, Russia and Scandinavia, into the arms of an even older enemy, the Christians. It was in such places that they regrouped, reorganised and planned retributive military action. Over the next two hundred years, combined heathen Norse, Russian and Alanic forces repeatedly launched brave attacks against the Islamic, Jewish and Christian heartlands of the east, brazenly foraying into Iran, Byzantium, Anatolia and the Caucuses. They were here to stay. The venerable paganism of the wizards The venerable paganism of the wizards There is an old saying “to the victor go the spoils”. Our understanding of the nature and history of paganism has suffered greatly as a result of the Dark and Middle Ages, for it was during that tumultuous era that the Church sought to suppress and eradicate the ‘idolatrous’, ‘superstitious’ and ‘heathen’ beliefs of pre-Christian Europe in order to supplant it with the more ‘enlightened’ Christianity. For this reason, the Mediaeval churchmen did not seek to record the authentic traditions of the pagans at any great length. All we are left with are views of our ancestors parading about silvan woodlands, ‘devilishly’ dancing around bonfires, getting blind drunk, feasting, prostrating themselves before blocks of wood, venerating the sun and natural springs, sacrificing cattle, telling and retelling ‘blasphemous’ and ‘obscene’ myths, or “false histories”. We also hear of their incest and the worship of men and trees. Are we to believe that for thousands of years, Europeans had no religious sense at all, and delighted in the profane? Are we to accept that the heathen faith (or faiths) was as ridiculously baboonish as it has been portrayed; a feast of carnal longings and foolhardiness, and that it is only we who have genuine beliefs and morality? You are about to discover just how much information on the pagans has been preserved, only academics specialising in paganism and witchcraft studies have not bothered to pursue some of these very valuable clues to their ultimate conclusion, unashamedly for ideological reasons of a religious or political nature. In doing so they would have found an historical reconstruction greatly at variance with the current, almost nihilistic, interpretations of European paganism. So, what was paganism? In brief it is a Latin term first coined by the Romans; paganus: “villagers”. It is therefore a contrived and deceptively naive term that conceals an amazingly wide range of beliefs. The term “heathen” possesses a similar quality. In Olden Rus’, the word pogan’,2 which was derived from Latin, differed from other terms for “a pagan” like yazychnik3 or busorman.3 It meant “bad”, “filthy”, or “dirty”. Pogan’ is most likely a word used by Christians during the post-conversion era when referring to devotees of the “Old Faith”. Another interpretation is that it was used when speaking of certain pagans who deliberately defiled themselves with filth, or who had a different standard of hygiene. Throughout greater Europe the word “pagan” need not have applied merely to those who reverenced bonfires in towers or woodland clearings. Mediaeval clerics could just as easily use it when speaking of Muslims, or Jews, followers of “the Jewish superstition”. In the Hodoeporicon of St Willibald, Huneberc of Heidenheim terms the Arabs “pagan saracens”. Here formal religions, complete with their own holy texts, are derided as “paganism” and “superstition”.4 Surviving data suggests th...
