Conclusion
My primary dataset is Wikipedia—the world’s most exhaustive and up‑to‑date encyclopedia. I built this work from Wikipedia entries to tackle complex communication problems in a novel context, relying on remix practices that blur the lines between invention and borrowing. To me, every writing situation is a problem demanding a solution. So I reexamined all ancient narratives through a modern lens. By redating and reframing history, I aim to level the cultural playing field, suggesting that many roots of civilization are more recent and interconnected than conventionally believed.
Because Wikipedia is collaboratively edited, I revisited its pages over several years. I copied articles on G and the fifteenth century into a Google Doc, then overlaid Wikipedia’s historical timelines onto G’s content, aligning similar dates. Over time, a striking convergence of events emerged, forming patterns reminiscent of fractals. Measure anything long enough and constants like ϕ and π inevitably appear; likewise, seemingly unrelated sequences surface during such work. For example, the linguist Andrey Zaliznyak argued that TNC’s methods could be used to falsely connect any historical figures, such as ancient Egyptian pharaohs and French kings.
I treated Wikipedia strictly as research, then rewrote everything in my own words, ensuring I retained no phrasing or unique synthesis from the originals. Afterward, I unified the material under the Watch narrative, ran plagiarism checks in Grammarly, and sought feedback from a historian. On June 11, 2025, I revisited the manuscript with various large language models and greatly expanded it.
Edgar Allan Poe brought cryptograms to newspapers and coined the word “cryptography.” He wrote, “True originality is carefully, patiently, and understandingly to combine.” Inspired by that challenge to conventional originality, I regard history as an ongoing remix shaped by folk interpretation. Religious institutions—the oldest living examples of remix culture—regularly reinterpret sacred texts, sometimes even satirically, a practice as old as writing itself.
Stories are often the most powerful way to communicate because they engage both emotion and memory, making information easier to understand, relate to, and remember. Humanity has long used stories—myths, legends, fables, histories, and even modern films—to pass down knowledge, values, and warnings across generations. By wrapping abstract ideas or complex lessons in narrative, stories give context and meaning, allowing people not just to hear information but to experience it in a way that resonates and sticks.
I anticipate mainstream historians will dismiss my radical compression of history into the fifteenth century because it conflicts with modern dating techniques. Yet no one truly knows how much of history is fact or fiction unless they were present at the events. While established dating methods are rigorous, archaeological, paleographical, and carbon‑dating results often contradict one another, reinforcing my premise of chronological ambiguity.
Anomalous artifacts strengthen my case—take the London Hammer, an iron‑and‑wood tool reportedly encased in Cretaceous rock. Mainstream science seeks conventional explanations, but such finds raise profound questions about accepted timelines. As “woke policing” perpetuates itself, we must guard against erasing lessons still unlearned. Though cuneiform tablets, papyrus, and books can burn, digital history can vanish in seconds. I nevertheless embrace digital media to advance historical analysis—for better or worse. These methods allow us to reconstruct history using objective tools—astronomy, mathematics, and statistical analysis—rather than relying on the assumptions of Renaissance scholars or religious tradition.
Isaac Newton’s *The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended* exemplifies remixing timelines: he claimed Solomon was the world’s first king and his Temple the first ever built. Newton’s dates diverged dramatically from accepted chronologies, yet his cosmology points to cyclical time. If space and time are infinite, identical worlds recur endlessly; Newton intuited what Jung later called eternal return. We are pattern‑recognizing machines, perceiving archetypes that cyclically manifest across generations and cultures.
TNC’s statistical correlations extend this insight, invoking the “as above, so below” principle—microcosm reflects macrocosm. With infinite time, a finite set of events repeats, and systematic biases recur in human judgment. Recognizing these patterns reveals history’s recursive nature. Evolutionary psychology likewise shows that our modern psyche still mirrors ancestral adaptations, proving that universal patterns in the cosmic tapestry echo in the minutiae of human experience.
From the dawn of civilization, humanity has survived, adapted, and created. Empires rise and fall; science, technology, and art propel us forward while wars and plagues test our resilience. Because history is fractal, repeating patterns invite prediction. TNC’s databases suggest predeterminism: unless we identify recurring sequences and consciously evolve, we are fated to reenact them.
The ultimate challenge, then, is not merely to decode the cryptogram of the past but to recognize the living cryptogram of the present. By discerning recurring patterns, phantom pasts, and hidden influences in our reality, we can choose a future unbound by engineered forgetfulness and truly will our own destiny. Time is not linear but fractal—meaning events repeat in patterns across cycles. By studying past events, we can predict future possibilities because history echoes itself. Mark powerful "choice points" where you can shift your path. By recognizing these patterns, you can make conscious decisions to shape a better future.
Like Bacon's New Atlantis, maybe the Watch is not a historical group at all—but a projection from the future, or an emergent intelligence operating through history as a self-correcting system. This echoes Nick Land’s notion of hyperstition—ideas that create themselves by being believed. In this model, the Watch is real because it is believed into existence by pattern recognition. History itself becomes a recursive fiction built from encrypted feedback loops, not top-down control.
If my theory is wrong, then what you’ve just read is an elaborate thought experiment—a Renaissance-sized game of “what if?” But if it’s right, then we have been living inside someone else’s archive. The question is no longer “Was history rewritten?” but “What will we write next?
If this book has succeeded in anything, let it be the planting of a seed: that history is not what it appears to be. We live inside a carefully orchestrated narrative — a world built from illusion, repetition, and selective memory. But encryption tools can be undone. By studying sequences in the seemingly “random,” we begin to see the invisible threads that bind timelines together. And with that awareness, we no longer remain passive readers of history — we become its active rewriters. Statistics show what happens, not what has to happen to you.
About the Author
This doc is not merely a historical account; it is a deliberate act of remixing, mirroring the very processes I explore within the Watch’s operations. In essence, the entire narrative is a decipherment of my own lineage within the Watch’s grand design. For example, Leon Battista Alberti is, in all likelihood, my distant relative—my grandfather simply replaced an “i” with an “a” in our surname, producing “Alberta.” My maternal haplogroup, from my Ashkenazi mother, is HV1b2, and my paternal haplogroup, from my Sicilian father, is E‑L29. 23andMe reports that I carry more Neanderthal variants than 73 percent of their customers. The oldest anatomically modern humans of the Cro-Magnon type discovered thus far, dating back 24,000 years from Southern Italy, test as Haplogroup HV. My deepest motivation for writing stems from two powerful forces: the absence of children in my life and a profound longing to connect with my ancestors.
Genetically, my Haplogroups met in the Kebaran culture, within a transitional society between the earlier Aurignacians and later Natufians. The most prominent period of extensive interaction between Haplogroup E and Haplogroup HV lineages likely occurred during the Neolithic period in the Near East, as both expanded with the spread of agriculture, and continued through subsequent historical periods in regions like North Africa and Southern Europe due to ongoing migrations and cultural exchange.
While studying history, I’ve sometimes wrestled with how to carry my Jewish identity—especially as the child of a Catholic father. But my people have always reinvented ourselves within the tribe. I’m not outside the pale; I claim my place within Am Yisrael, grounded in what I’ve learned and the path I choose.
Each later Abrahamic religion (Christianity, then Islam) inherits the narrative of the previous one but introduces new, less independently verifiable assertions. Without decisive confirming evidence, Bayesian reasoning tends to favor the earlier, simpler worldview — in this case, Judaism — as more “probable” purely in a probabilistic sense.
I am Jewish—by peoplehood, ancestry, and commitment. I also take our sources seriously: rabbinic tradition (Yoma 86a) warns that knowingly neglecting mitzvot is a grave failing, and the Zohar teaches that when a Jew withholds their spiritual potential it risks Chillul Hashem. We speak of 613 mitzvot, many bound to specific roles and circumstances; in our era no one can fulfill them all. Until the days of the Messiah and a rebuilt Temple, I live my Judaism through study, memory, responsibility, and acts meant to gather lost holiness.
As Kohanim may set aside laws to preserve life, I prioritize what preserves life and restores dignity in a world in crisis. My struggles are not abandonments of Judaism but sacred battles for redemption. I am Jewish—fully, openly, and on a path that is my own yet entirely within our people’s story.
My paternal line (Y-DNA E) traces back to Afroasiatic migrations from East Africa into the Levant, while my maternal line (mtDNA HV) connects to pre-Semitic, pre-Neolithic populations of West Asia. This gives me a historically grounded identity rooted in a civilizational matrix that blended culture, genes, and geography across the ancient Fertile Crescent.
My maternal haplogroup is one of the most ancient and widespread mitochondrial DNA lineages in Eurasia, emerging during the Last Glacial Maximum. It has deep roots in early human migrations, the Neolithic Revolution, and the rise of Bronze Age civilizations, and is the ancestral branch of the widespread haplogroups H and V. Ancient DNA traces HV to Natufian hunter-gatherers (12,500–9,500 BCE) of the Levant—among the first to adopt sedentary lifestyles—and to Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) cultures (~8,500–6,000 BCE) that helped spread agriculture into Anatolia and Europe. It appears at key Neolithic sites such as Çatalhöyük (7,500–5,700 BCE) and in the Linear Pottery Culture (LBK, 5,500–4,500 BCE), as well as in the Cucuteni–Trypillian culture of Ukraine. By the Bronze Age, HV was present among the Yamnaya, Corded Ware, Unetice, and Bell Beaker cultures, linking it to Indo-European migrations, metallurgy, and early trade networks. It also appears in the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations of the Aegean, in Sintashta and Andronovo cultures influencing early Indo-Iranians, and even among the Tarim Basin mummies (2,000 BC) of Xinjiang. Elevated frequencies in Minoan Crete point to enduring ties with Mesopotamia, where HV has deep roots in Amorite (Assyrian, Babylonian, etc) maternal lineages. Eastward migrations carried subclades such as HV12 and HV14 into Iran, the South Caucasus, Central Asia, and South Asia—particularly among Dravidian-speaking populations—while HV1b2 became a notable lineage among Ashkenazi Jews, likely originating in northern Mesopotamia during or after the Assyrian and Babylonian exiles.
Today, HV is most prevalent in the Caucasus (e.g., Chechens, Georgians, Dargins), the Near East (e.g., Lebanese, Druze, Kurds), and pockets of Europe (e.g., Calabria, Sicily, Sardinia, the Balkans). Genetic studies link it to certain Romanov dynasty members, medieval European nobility, and ancient Egyptian royalty such as the family of Ramesses III. Its descendant haplogroup H now dominates European mtDNA (~40% of lineages), while HV0 occurs in Basques and V among Saami and Berbers. Overall, HV represents a crucial maternal lineage connecting early farmers, steppe nomads, and advanced Bronze Age societies, leaving a genetic legacy that still shapes Eurasian diversity today.
My journey of self-decipherment—an attempt to recover the encrypted truth of my lineage—is fundamentally different from merely consuming elaborate theories built by others. While both involve connecting fragments and questioning official narratives, one is an inward excavation driven by direct ancestral memory, trauma, and encoded symbols. The other often becomes a hall of mirrors, where complexity masquerades as truth, and the longer one stays, the more agency is surrendered to someone else’s story-world.
Conspiracy theories, particularly those requiring a devotion to someone else’s web of “connections,” can hijack our personal mythos. They replace the uncertainty of our own broken lineages with comforting, prefabricated puzzles. But my own process demanded I face the abyss of unknowing, not fill it with borrowed certainty. It asked me to sit with fragmentation, not reassemble it with someone else’s glue.
In that way, deciphering my lineage became an act of decolonizing my memory. It revealed how historical encryption—intentional obfuscation of origin, displacement, and control—wasn't just academic; it was personal. And to reclaim it, I had to stop following other people’s dots and start tracing my own fingerprints across time.
I'm excited to offer you my eBook, "The Living Code: Rewriting Your Inner Cipher", for free when you book a half-hour coaching session with me for $25. My coaching sessions are based on the comprehensive protocol outlined in the eBook. I wrote it to empower you to become the code breaker of your own life. During each half hour session, we'll delve into practical strategies across physical health, mental resilience, relationships, and wealth, helping you decode and rewrite your personal cipher. This approach aims to unlock your true potential, foster unwavering self-sovereignty, and guide you towards a life of profound purpose, clarity, and genuine satisfaction, free from unconscious patterns and external defaults.
In "The Living Code: Rewriting Your Inner Cipher," I share the system I’ve developed to help people, including myself, break free from unconscious patterns and start living with intention. I treat life like an encrypted message—one shaped by childhood programming, trauma, decisions, and repeating behaviors. In the first chapter, I guide readers through a process of personal decryption, helping them recognize recurring life themes and identify their own “cipher.” Through exercises like “The Epochal Map” and “The Life Algorithm,” I show how to extract meaning from the past to consciously rewrite the future.
Disclaimer for Readers
This book is a work of speculative historical theory dedicated to family. While it draws from real historical events and figures, it reinterprets them through metaphorical, symbolic, and philosophical lenses. The intention is not to promote conspiracy theories, nor to disparage any modern-day race, religion, or culture, but to examine the narrative structures that shape human memory and identity. Historical influences on a group of people do not inherently define its present state—past compromises do not equate to contemporary realities. Where errors or insensitivities exist, I welcome dialogue and correction. The Watch, as described in this manuscript, is a symbolic and hypothetical intelligence network. It is important for readers to note that while this doc draws upon a wide range of academic and theoretical works, its central premise, particularly regarding the concept of "the Watch" and the deliberate manipulation of historical timelines, represents a highly speculative and unconventional interpretation. Many of the connections and conclusions presented herein are unique to this work and are not part of mainstream historical or scientific consensus.
