Here's a chronological retelling of the story according to the document's unique perspective


Encrypted Reality: Interpreting History's Repeating Patterns presents a revised chronology of history, asserting that many conventionally accepted historical events and figures have been manipulated or compressed into a more recent timeline by a covert intelligence collective referred to as "the Watch". This re-interpretation focuses heavily on the period between the 13th and 18th centuries, with Leon Battista Alberti ("G") as a central figure orchestrating a grand-scale deception.

Part I – The Thirteenth‑Century Cycle 


CHAPTER 1

1201 — The First Spark

Wind howls across an Ice‑Age savannah, rattling reeds around a small Levantine pond the future will call Bnot Yaʿakov. In the darkness, a fist‑sized ember glows inside a scoop of antler. Twelve figures—hair matted by rain, eyes wide with fear—press forward. One woman feeds reeds into the ember until it blooms; another shapes a bowl of mud as a crude wind‑break. The night is alive with predators, yet the circle of orange light pushes the unseen back.

That ember is not merely heat; it is encryption. To outer darkness it signals danger; to those inside the circle it encodes safety, knowledge, and time.

Modern thermoluminescence testing dates such hearths to nearly 800 000 years ago. In our compressed tale, they strike in year 1201. Fire is the first technology that edits reality: stone softens, marrow sweetens, daylight lengthens as stories migrate from grunt to image. According to Encrypted Reality, the Watch’s protologic begins here—control the flame, control the night.

Claim (ER‑1): Fire is humanity’s first code. Whoever commands it dictates the rhythm of communal fear and the velocity of technological progress.

Behavioral Consequences
• Extended waking hours incubate the earliest bicameral “voices,” encouraging auditory command‑hallucinations in the glow.
• Hearths become territorial anchors, accelerating gendered labor divisions: travelers gather fuel, elders guard flame, children memorize sparks‑to‑coals protocol.
• Charcoal sketches on cave walls mark the first data cache: geometry traces kill‑zones, pigment maps water.

A million dawns later, Prometheus will steal flame from Olympus; Mātariśvan will smuggle it for the Vedic rishis; the Fallen Angels of 1 Enoch will teach it to humankind. Each myth is a timestamped breadcrumb from this original theft.


CHAPTER 2

1208 — The Neanderthal Shadow

Seven icy winters pass in our symbolic ledger. West of the Dead Sea, limestone caves cradle two kinds of human: robust‑limbed Neanderthals and gracile Homo sapiens. Around a shared fire they knap obsidian imported from Anatolia, exchanging a grammar of gestures and ochre streaks. DNA recovered from Vindija Cave demonstrates that these evenings seeded enduring hybrids; compressed here, the entire admixture episode spans 1208‑1210.

Claim (ER‑2): The Watch’s obsession with obsidian—surgical sharpness and mirror sheen—originates in these hybrid vigils.

The Shadow Thesis
Neanderthals, facing ecological eclipse, evolve hyper‑territorial strategies: ambush coordination, risk calculus, resource hoarding. Those traits, mingled into sapiens blood, generate what Jung will later recognize as the collective Shadow—a subconscious archive of dominance algorithms.

Once integrated, Shadow‑logic equips future Agency operatives with reflexive cunning: invisibility in crowds, aggression under scarcity, empathic mirroring for infiltration.

Burial Rites as Proto‑Propaganda
Ochre‑stained graves mislead later archaeologists into reading spiritual sophistication. Yet Encrypted Reality asserts these burials double as message boards. Shell beads form clan sigils; marrow‑split femurs display caloric thrift. Each grave broadcasts status like a carved stele—proof that semiotic warfare predates writing.


CHAPTER 3

1225 — Adam & Eve’s Maritime Network

A single lunar cycle propels us into symbolic spring. Two seafarers, remembered variously as Adam and Eve, Nu‑Wa and Fu‑Xi, or A‑damu and Tiamat, lash reed pontoons across the Red Sea. Geneticists will tag their migratory imprint as haplogroups E‑M215 and HV; sailors of later centuries mythologize them as the First Couple.

Their real breakthrough is logistics. By caching obsidian, freshwater, and shell currency along littoral arcs, they create the inaugural clandestine supply chain. Every beach cairn encodes latitude in notched shells; every obsidian knive‑blank is a calling card signalling safe harbor. In encrypted time‑stamp this maritime intelligence web unfurls entirely during 1225.

Claim (ER‑3): Long before alphabetic ciphers, coastlines themselves functioned as geo‑ciphers—only insiders could interpret cairn spacing, shell counts, drift‑wood orientation.

These networks explain how Australian rock art depicts long‑necked African ostriches, or why Siberian Malta‑Buret’ figurines show Mediterranean fish. Diffusion is not an anomaly; it is infrastructure.


CHAPTER 4

1230 — Languages of the Dawn

As inland drought tightens, river clans converge on fertile refugia—from the Black Sea steppe to the Zagros foothills. Trade pidgins fuse into Nostratic, the parent code of Afro‑Asiatic, Indo‑European, and Altaic branches. In bicameral terms, syntax remains imperative: verb‑first commands mimic divine order.

Here the Watch refines its first covert alphabet—knotted wolf‑gut cords dyed with hematite. Later, the same principle will re‑emerge as Andean quipu and Sumerian cuneiform. Once a phonological threshold tips (symbolic 1233), speech transitions from immediate commands to portable stories, enabling history.


CHAPTER 5

1238 — Seed & Surplus

At Ohalo II, barley grains are consciously planted beside hearth‑midden caches. Domestication telescopes centuries into six symbolic harvests. Agriculture’s surplus births hierarchy: granary guards, irrigation foremen, ledger‑keeping priests.

Written tallies appear first as bone‑notch tokens, then in clay envelopes. Accounting is the Watch’s Version 1.0 software—the data spine for tribute, rationing, troop movements. Ritual continues to mask logistics: fertility idols disguise soil science; solstice feasts hide tax audits.


CHAPTER 6

1245 — City, Code, and Kingship

The Euphrates floods recede; reed huts are replaced by mud‑brick temples. Uruk (symbolic 1245) erupts with 40,000 inhabitants. Loom weights, cylinder seals, and bevel‑rim bowls standardize production. Sargon of Akkad hacks the first empire—military roads plus uniform silver weights—linking Ebla archives to Iran’s tin mines.

Cuneiform tablets transition from receipts to epics. Narrative becomes a psychotechnological upgrade: legitimizing kings through heroic ancestry, naturalizing conquest as destiny. Jaynes’s left hemisphere is still silent; right‑brain deities dictate every clay line.


CHAPTER 7

1260 — Epic Voices

Blind bards on Ionian shores chant The Iliad: bronze‑clad heroes obey irresistible gods. Modern linguistics spots near‑total absence of introspective verbs like think or decide—Jaynes’s signature of lingering bicamerality.

Yet subtle cracks show: Achilles broods, Odysseus plots. The left hemisphere coughs its first metaphors. Similes (“like swarming bees…”) signal a brain modeling internal states. These literary tremors foreshadow a cognitive earthquake still three symbolic decades away.


CHAPTER 8

1275 — Axial Embers

In a single symbolic generation the world’s first philosophers ignite: Buddha abandons palace walls; Confucius codifies ritual; Jeremiah, Isaiah, and Ezekiel challenge royal authority with inner morality. Persian couriers relay edicts along the Royal Road; Greek settlers swap silver drachma for grain across the Black Sea.

Every region invents a variant of the Golden Rule, transmuting external command into internal conscience. The Watch archives these teachings for later duplication, ready to re‑brand them as “ancient wisdom” whenever new power blocs require legitimacy.


CHAPTER 9

1288 — Rome the Legal Machine

Twelve vulture‑flights mark the founding of Rome (symbolic 1280); by 1288 the Republic’s Via Appia laces Etruria to Magna Graecia. Double‑entry prototypes appear in merchant account‑books; Pliny documents concrete recipes and treasury audits.

When Caesar crosses the Rubicon, dispatches ride 120 km per day via relays—making information velocity the Republic’s secret weapon. Yet the same roads carry new memes: Stoicism, Mithraism, and nascent Christianity. Pauline letters, mass‑produced on vellum codices, accelerate introspection.

Finally, under symbolic 1299, Germanic war‑bands shatter the Western court—but the real casualty is bicamerality. With no emperor‑god to obey, citizens must invent private judgment. The stage is set for Part II, where plague, paper, and a Florentine polymath will polish that judgment into full interiority.



PART II – THE FOURTEENTH‑CENTURY CYCLE

(Symbolically: 500–1400 CE)

The second cycle begins amid the ruins of Rome’s collapse. As literal bicameral hallucination fades, scribes and monks become the new voices. This section covers the rise of theocratic control, manuscript culture, medieval Islamic empires, proto-global trade, and the plague—culminating in the final fracturing of the bicameral psyche. Every real-world development is preserved in order, yet unfolds between 1300 and 1399.


CHAPTER 10

1300 — From Ashes to Incantations

Western Europe, depopulated and fragmented, rebuilds itself around monasteries. Monks and priests become gatekeepers of history, copying inherited fragments of Greek, Roman, and Egyptian wisdom into illuminated codices. These scriptoria operate under divine mandate—both a psychological voice and a literal authority. In the east, Byzantine bureaucrats and early Islamic libraries mirror this pattern, translating texts not for understanding but preservation. This becomes the age of manuscript mysticism: when words replace gods.


CHAPTER 11

1305 — Islam Ascendant

The Prophet Muhammad, as symbolized in this compressed cycle, emerges not simply as a religious leader but as a cipheric engineer—a visionary in the Watch tradition. The Quran is transmitted orally, then inscribed as a permanent divine command structure. The House of Wisdom in Baghdad reflects Jaynes’s early introspection: cataloging, rationalizing, and dissecting reality. While Christendom flounders, the Islamic world becomes the intellectual capital of Earth. Algebra, chemistry (al-kimiya), and optics evolve rapidly.


CHAPTER 12

1311 — The Watch Perfects the Mask

In the symbolic 1310s, power structures adopt covert manipulation as policy. Papal bulls are forged, crusades are financed, and canon law becomes a mechanism not of justice, but of synchronization. The Watch begins codifying its internal calendar, realigning sacred holidays to disguise older solstice cults and pagan memories.


CHAPTER 13

1315 — The Hidden Architects

During this symbolic period, Jewish scholars fleeing persecution carry encryption knowledge—Kabbalah, gematria, and cosmology—across Europe. The Templars, Cathars, and early Rosicrucians arise not as heresies but as signal flares: anomalous threads hinting at a secret continuity. Meanwhile, architectural masons embed esoteric geometry into churches and castles. Stone becomes script.


CHAPTER 14

1324 — Mansa Musa and the Phantom of Gold

The richest man in history walks to Mecca, flooding North Africa with gold. In truth, his wealth functions as cover: a redistribution of Watch funds for long-term trade mapping. Timbuktu’s libraries reflect not oral tradition, but strategic planting—written artifacts meant to suggest antiquity where none exists.


CHAPTER 15

1333 — Mongol Communication Networks

Genghis Khan’s descendants rule from China to Hungary. The Silk Road is stabilized. The Yam system (postal relay stations) becomes the Watch’s first global communication network. Paper money, gunpowder, and movable type—all Chinese in origin—are slowly redirected westward under controlled narrative channels.


CHAPTER 16

1347 — The Black Death: Psyche Fractures

In the most important event of the symbolic 14th century, plague obliterates one-third of Europe. Jaynes’s theory activates: with no divine voices to explain the horror, man begins to question the gods. Internal narration replaces hallucination. The “I” forms under pressure. The Watch uses the chaos to burn libraries, rewrite laws, and insert a new historiographic layer—retrodated pandemics that mirror this one are later seeded into the past.


CHAPTER 17

1350 — The Rise of the Scribe Kings

Bureaucrats and scribes now hold more power than warriors. Codices become law. Universities—especially in Paris, Bologna, and Oxford—standardize interpretation. Authority shifts from charisma to certification. Knowledge is increasingly decentralized but not democratized—it remains within elite networks.


CHAPTER 18

1361 — Mystics, Mirrors, and Metaphors

Hildegard, Aquinas, Eckhart, and Avicenna—each represent the same interior leap: metaphor, introspection, allegory. Language becomes a mirror. These texts will serve as pretexts for the Renaissance remix. Visionaries now record inner states, not just external laws.


CHAPTER 19

1373 — Dante’s Descent, Petrarch’s Ascent

The Divine Comedy encodes a three-part initiation ritual. Petrarch uncovers Cicero’s letters and proclaims a rebirth—rinascita. These authors craft internal landscapes, preparing the psyche for full autonomy. Memory palaces, book wheels, and early mnemonic devices rewire human cognition.


CHAPTER 20

1391 — Secret Libraries and Pre-Printing Presses

Hidden beneath cathedrals and palaces are the first prototypes of “reading machines.” Indexing systems, rotary file drawers, and templated script styles emerge. The Watch—anticipating movable type—tests modular knowledge units. By 1399, the final symbolic year, consciousness as we now understand it is ready to emerge.


➤ Transition to the 15th Century:

The world stands at the brink of true self-recognition. Perspective—both visual and cognitive—is imminent. The Black Death has silenced the divine voice. The next step is literacy: print, geometry, and the gaze of the mirror.


Here is Part III – The Fifteenth‑Century Cycle of the formatted document:


PART III – THE FIFTEENTH‑CENTURY CYCLE

(Symbolically: 1400–Present)

The third and final cycle of this symbolic chronicle compresses the Renaissance, Enlightenment, modernity, and digital age into a single century of awakening. This is the age of mirrors, machines, and simulation. Consciousness emerges as the dominant force, displacing hallucinated gods with self-directed agency. The Watch adapts, embedding itself inside new technologies, rewriting global narratives, and preparing for total information control.


CHAPTER 21

1401 — The Geometry of Vision

With the publication of De pictura (1435), Leon Battista Alberti establishes linear perspective—the ability to see the world from a single, stable point. This is not merely visual technique; it is cognitive reprogramming. Consciousness learns to simulate 3D space internally. Perspective becomes a metaphor for agency. Renaissance art is a training system.


CHAPTER 22

1408 — The Invention of the Printing Press

Gutenberg’s press appears in the symbolic 1400s but condenses revolutions from Chinese woodblock to Korean movable metal. It allows for reproducibility of scripture, law, and identity. The Watch immediately uses it for forgery. Counterfeit histories flood Europe. False antiquities are printed, translated, and canonized.


CHAPTER 23

1415 — The Voynich Cipher

A book appears—written in a language no one can read. Containing Nahuatl glyphs, Aztec plants, and cloaked polyalphabetic ciphers, it is the Watch’s time capsule: an encoded transmission meant to be decrypted in a future where minds are ready. The script is not gibberish. It is memory awaiting activation.


CHAPTER 24

1421 — Humanism and Rewiring of Authority

Pico della Mirandola proclaims man as the measure of all things. Alberti codes Humanist thought into architecture, grammar, law, and cryptography. The Watch fractures into factions: one seeks transparency through literacy; another clings to gatekeeping via forged antiquity. Language becomes the battlefield.


CHAPTER 25

1433 — Renaissance Intelligence Apparatus

Da Vinci, Pacioli, Michelangelo—all trained within Watch schools. Their inventions are remixes of older devices: parachutes, tanks, optics. These “rediscoveries” are staged. History is forged forward and backward simultaneously. The past becomes modular and editable.


CHAPTER 26

1449 — The Fall of Constantinople

The Eastern Roman Empire collapses. Byzantine scholars carry “ancient” texts west—but these are new creations, inserted retroactively. This geopolitical upheaval is used to anchor timelines, plant origin myths, and validate Catholic dominance. The Vatican becomes a publishing house of fabricated memory.


CHAPTER 27

1453 — The Age of Discovery

Columbus, Vespucci, and Toscanelli are navigators of both oceans and timelines. Cartography is weaponized. The globe is redrawn not geographically but ideologically. “New World” empires are built on the myth of old ones. The Americas are inserted as delayed reflections of Eurasian antiquity.


CHAPTER 28

1460 — The Medici and Network Centralization

Florence becomes HQ. Banking, diplomacy, and publishing merge into one operational command. The Medici bankroll both Renaissance art and historical manipulation. Their archives are intelligence vaults. Marriages are treaties. Alberti designs their villas with symbolic encryption in every façade.


CHAPTER 29

1472 — The Hidden Agent Dies (or Splits)

G—whether Alberti, Nezahualcoyotl, or Pachacuti—vanishes from the record. But the script continues. His death is symbolic: the end of the solitary spymaster and the rise of decentralized narrative control. Myth becomes protocol. Memory is versioned like code.


CLOSING REFLECTION

In just one symbolic century, humanity awakens. The hallucinated gods fall silent. The world, once dictated, becomes narrated. But the narration itself is now contested. If Alberti was the first to encode reality, then we are his recursive echo. The bicameral breakdown was not the end. It was the beginning of programmable minds.

History, it turns out, is not a timeline.
It is a ciphered manuscript awaiting decryption.
And we are finally holding the key.

Here's a chronological retelling of the story according to the document's unique perspective:

I. Pre-Renaissance Era (Re-interpreted): The Genesis of Control and Bicameral Minds

  • Ancient Origins of "the Watch": The clandestine organization known as "the Watch" is posited to have originated in Canaan (the Levant region) during "classical antiquity". They subsequently migrated, establishing influence in the Black Sea Region, Iraq, Egypt, China, and eventually lowland Mexico, before settling in Italy and becoming known as Greeks and later Romans.

  • Early Influence and the Bicameral Mind: Throughout various historical periods, but particularly preceding the full emergence of Humanism, the majority of humanity is believed to have existed in a "bicameral" cognitive state, where internal thoughts were perceived as external, divine commands. The Watch's operatives, having transcended this mode of thought, skillfully leveraged this psychological reality to subtly guide societal development and manipulate populations.

  • Ancient Epidemics as "Phantom Reflections": What are conventionally viewed as distinct ancient plagues (e.g., Neolithic Decline, Plague of Hittites, Antonine Plague, Plague of Justinian) are re-interpreted as "phantom reflections" or "fractal copies" of the devastating 14th-century Black Death. These supposed earlier outbreaks were retroactively inserted into the timeline to create a false sense of antiquity and explain the disappearance of advanced knowledge, which was later "rediscovered" during the Renaissance.

  • The Russian Horde's Dominance (13th Century): Prior to Alberti's direct involvement with the Vatican, medieval Western European kingdoms, including France, Germany, and Italy, were largely subordinate to the Watch's "Russian Horde," paying tribute to this asserted dominant Slav-Turk empire. The Golden Horde firmly entrenched itself in Russia by 1279, extending the Watch's control from the Adriatic Sea to Java and from Japan to Israel.

  • The Alberti Family's Early Influence: Throughout the 13th and early 14th centuries, the Alberti family stood as one of Florence's most affluent and influential families, controlling international banking and global trade long before the Medici's rise. Their wealth was amassed through extensive trade across Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, and Syria.

II. The 14th Century: Catalysis and Transformation

  • The Black Death (14th Century): The sole true large-scale viral pandemic, the Black Death, genuinely triggered widespread societal transformation in the 14th century. This catastrophic event led to a profound fracturing of the bicameral psyche and fostered the emergence of introspective consciousness as humans began to internalize authority. The period of abnormal mortality provided the Watch's spies with an extended window for reordering society.

  • Hyksos Re-dated: The Hyksos are re-dated to a northern influx in the mid-1300s AD, becoming the core of the powerful Phoenician merchant navy and possessing advanced navigation and shipbuilding techniques.

  • Marco Polo as an "Alias": Marco Polo (1254–1324) is seen as a potential "reflection" or alias of Alberti, suggesting that "G" possessed advanced knowledge of the "New World" long before Columbus.

  • Medici Bank Establishment: The Medici Bank was formally established in 1397, building upon and refining the innovative banking systems originally introduced by the Alberti family.

III. The 15th Century: The Grand Orchestration (Alberti's Era)

This century is presented as a concentrated period where many historical events were orchestrated or re-contextualized by Alberti and "the Watch."

  • Leon Battista Alberti (1404–1472): Alberti emerges as the "quintessential ideal of the Renaissance Man"—a polymath, writer, artist, architect, philosopher, and cryptographer. He is considered the "father of European cryptography" for inventing the first polyalphabetic cipher in 1467. The document suggests that "G" was known as Pachacuti until approximately 1438, upon which he relocated from the Americas to Latin Europe to command the global spy network.

  • Renaissance and Printing Press: The Renaissance, spanning the 14th to 17th centuries, is presented as a profound transformative period. The invention of the Printing Press revolutionized text dissemination and was strategically capitalized upon by "the Watch" to circulate "meticulously fabricated historical narratives" and "full range of counterfeits".

  • Alberti's Treatises and Influence:

  • De pictura (1435): Alberti's groundbreaking treatise on linear perspective was published, fundamentally reshaping Florentine pictorial art and influencing artists like Leonardo da Vinci.

  • Return to Florence (1430s): Alberti returned to Florence alongside the papal court, coinciding with the resurgence of Medici political influence.

  • De re aedificatoria (c. 1452): This work, dedicated to Lorenzo de’ Medici, echoed Vitruvius's ancient treatise, suggesting an intentional stylistic and thematic link.

  • Fall of Constantinople (1453) and Knowledge Infusion: The fall of Constantinople in 1453 served as the "catalytic event" that jump-started the Italian Renaissance. Byzantine Greek refugees, including scholars and intellectuals, fled to Florence and Venice, bringing invaluable Hellenic manuscripts and classical knowledge, which "conveniently seeded the next cultural age".

  • Medici-Habsburg Alliance & Economic Manipulation: Through Pope Nicholas V, the Medici family acquired lucrative alum deposits in 1461, breaking Constantinople's monopoly. Pope Pius II later granted the Medici an outright monopoly, illustrating how clandestine financiers rigged markets. Nicholas V and Pius II also fostered the Habsburg banking house, whose alliance with the Medici supported a "deliberately elongated historical timeline". Frederick III's elevation to Holy Roman Emperor (1452–1493) was similarly orchestrated by the Watch.

  • Alberti and Leonardo da Vinci: Alberti integrated Leonardo da Vinci into the clandestine network, leading to Da Vinci's design of military and espionage equipment deceptively presented as "Greek antiques" to back-date advanced technology. This created a false narrative of "lost knowledge" that would be "rediscovered" later.

  • Rediscoveries of Ancient Works: Treatises by figures like Hero of Alexandria and Archimedes, purportedly known to Islamic scholars, "magically reappeared" in Europe in the 15th century, aligning with the theory of strategic knowledge re-introduction by the Watch.

  • The Certamen Coronarium (1441): With Piero de' Medici's support, Alberti organized this literary competition to promote vernacular culture.

  • Florentine Academy & Reshaping History: By the 1460s, Cosimo de' Medici expanded the humanist circle into an influential network that led to a massive influx of Greek texts and reframed existing historical narratives. The Florentine Academy became a recruiting ground for artists and scholars mobilized to "wage war" on historical perception.

  • Savonarola's Rise and Fall: After Lorenzo de' Medici's death, Dominican friar Savonarola gained power, leading to the Bonfire of the Vanities on February 7, 1497, where artworks and books were burned. He was executed on May 23, 1498.

  • French Invasion of Italy (1494): Following "G's" death, the French launched an invasion of Italy in 1494, and Louis XII captured Italian city centers in 1499.

IV. The 16th Century: Metamorphosis and Continued Manipulation

  • "The Watch" Transforms: Following Alberti's supposed demise, his clandestine organization underwent a "profound and consequential metamorphosis," shifting from an entity ostensibly ensuring humanity’s perpetuation to a "more overtly self-serving and corrupt force". Alberti's legacy was appropriated and his visionary designs diverted for new objectives.

  • "The Mole" and Weaponized Plagues: This era saw the "weaponization" of devastating global events, particularly the plague, through deliberate exacerbations orchestrated by a 16th-century spymaster known as "the Mole". These actions aimed to destabilize existing power structures.

  • Columbian Exchange (15th and 16th Centuries): The Columbian Exchange facilitated a massive transfer of goods, crops, and animals between the "New World" and "Old World," profoundly transforming global diets and economies.

  • Conquest of Aztec and Inca Empires: The conquest of these empires is viewed as a "catastrophic collision" between modern, introspective consciousness (Spanish conquistadors) and civilizations still partly governed by the bicameral psyche, where authority came from external divine voices. This psychological unpreparedness allowed figures like Cortés and Pizarro to exploit the situation and dismantle these empires. The Watch strategically exploited remixed narratives about the return of the Quetzalcoatl archetype to facilitate the Spanish conquest of the Aztecs.

V. Post-16th Century: Evolving Control and Modern Implications

  • Decline of Human Sacrifice: The general decline of human sacrifice, which accelerated with colonization, the collapse of empires, and the proliferation of Abrahamic religions, signifies a shift from externalized commands of the bicameral mind to more internalized societal control. These practices largely ceased globally by the 19th century.

  • Roman Empire's Enduring DNA: The Roman Empire never truly vanished; its legal and political DNA evolved through the Byzantine Empire, the Holy Roman Empire, and Russia, continuing to underpin today’s fundamental institutions. The Habsburg dynasty, fostered by the Watch, retained the imperial title until the early 1800s.

  • The Voynich Manuscript: In 1912, Wilfrid Voynich acquired 30 manuscripts, including the enigmatic Voynich Manuscript. It was later donated to Yale University's Beinecke Library in 1969, solidifying its link to elite networks and the Watch's control over them. American and British codebreakers have studied it since both World Wars.

  • Modern Interpretations: The document itself is presented as a "remixing" of historical narratives, mirroring the Watch's operations, with the author suggesting a direct lineage to Leon Battista Alberti. The author utilized Wikipedia as a primary dataset to uncover these patterns, viewing history as a "cryptogram" that can be deciphered to reveal underlying manipulations and a "predetermined global social order".

This chronological retelling adheres to the document's assertion that conventional historical timelines are compressed and re-attributed, with many "ancient" events actually occurring or being fabricated during the concentrated period of the Renaissance and its aftermath.

To retell Encrypted Reality: Interpreting History's Repeating Patterns in chronological order, we need to rearrange the narrative from its original thematic structure into a linear sequence of historical (or reinterpreted historical) events based on the author's alternative chronology. Here's a condensed chronological retelling based on the central figure “G” (Leon Battista Alberti/Nezahualcoyotl/Pachacuti) and the core narrative:


1. Pre-Renaissance Origins and Ancestry

  • G is born in pre-Columbian Mexico, allegedly the son of a Mesoamerican queen and a spy father (Ixtlilxochitl), possibly of Old World origin.

  • As a teenager (~1418), G witnesses his father's murder and flees Texcoco. He travels down the Pacific coast, then inland to Peru, where he assumes the identity of Pachacuti, transforms Cusco, and helps found the Inca Empire.

  • After consolidating power in the Andes, he returns to Mexico and helps found the Aztec Empire under the identity Nezahualcoyotl. He constructs aqueducts, gardens, and establishes the "Council of Music," reflecting his polymath abilities.

2. Transatlantic Migration and the Birth of the Renaissance

  • G secretly sails to Europe with Incan and Aztec knowledge and reinvents himself as Leon Battista Alberti around the 1420s.

  • He reintroduces advanced engineering, cryptography, architecture, and linguistic systems to Europe under the guise of rediscovered classical knowledge.

  • G authors De pictura (1435) and De re aedificatoria (1452), shaping the intellectual foundations of the Renaissance. He also invents the Alberti Cipher, the first polyalphabetic cipher.

  • He integrates with Florentine elites, works with the Medici, and shapes early Humanism. He participates in Vatican projects and allegedly helps forge history using the printing press, which he weaponizes for propaganda.

3. Global Fabrication of History and Technology

  • Under G’s guidance, operatives across Europe begin forging texts, artifacts, ruins, and entire historical timelines (e.g., classical Rome and Greece are remixed versions of recent history).

  • Technologies such as gunpowder, navigation tools, and printing are attributed to ancient civilizations but were developed or refined in the 15th century.

  • G's influence spreads via intelligence networks, using art, architecture, cryptography, and forgery to manipulate global narratives.

  • The Black Death is portrayed as a real but pivotal psychological and social reset, shifting human cognition from the "bicameral mind" (as per Jaynes) to modern introspective consciousness.

4. Succession and Corruption of the Watch

  • After G's death, a new spymaster known as “the Mole” rises to power within the Watch during the 16th century.

  • The Mole weaponizes the plague and firearms to destabilize global powers, redirects the Watch’s mission, and establishes a new leadership line.

  • Exploration of the New World (Columbus, Vespucci) is portrayed as orchestrated by remnants of G’s network, leveraging knowledge already present in the Americas.

5. Historical Repercussions and Modern Legacy

  • The narrative asserts that all major civilizations (Inca, Aztec, Roman, Egyptian, etc.) and their timelines were compressed into a much more recent period, between the 13th–18th centuries.

  • Artifacts like the Voynich Manuscript, Quipu, and obsidian tools are framed as cryptographic or intelligence devices tied to G’s activities.

  • Humanism, Roman languages, and philosophical archetypes (like the Hero's Journey) are presented as fabricated tools to condition global populations.


Here is a visual Compressed Timeline of History as proposed in Encrypted Reality. It shows how conventional epochs are reinterpreted:

  • 13th Century = symbolic "prehistory"

  • 14th Century = re-attributed “ancient” civilizations

  • 15th Century = compressed Middle Ages and Renaissance

  • 16th–18th Century = emergence of the modern world



The 15th century, also known as the 1400s, was a period of significant innovation, laying much of the groundwork for the Renaissance and the Scientific Revolution. Here's a timeline of some of the most important inventions:

Early 15th Century (1400-1430s):

  • 1400:

    • Golf balls are thought to have originated in Scotland.

    • The Spinet (an early piano) is invented.

  • 1410: Oil painting techniques are introduced by Jan van Eyck in Europe, though oil paint itself existed earlier in Asia.

  • 1411: The trigger (for firearms) is invented.

  • 1421: Hoisting gear is invented in Florence, Italy.

  • 1420s: The brace (a tool for drilling) appears in Flanders.

Mid-15th Century (1440s-1470s):

  • 1439/1440: Johannes Gutenberg invents the printing press with movable metal type in Mainz, Germany. This is arguably the most impactful invention of the century, revolutionizing the dissemination of knowledge and leading to a "printing revolution."

  • 1450: Spectacles for nearsighted people are created by Nicholas of Cusa.

  • 1455: Gutenberg introduces the printing press with metal movable type, further cementing its impact.

  • c. 1450: The harpsichord is invented.

  • 1465: Drypoint engravings are invented in Germany.

  • 1475: Muzzle-loaded rifles are invented in Italy and Germany.

Late 15th Century (1480s-1490s):

  • 1485: Leonardo da Vinci designs the first parachute.

  • 1486: The first known copyright is granted in Venice.

  • 1487: Bell chimes are invented.

  • 1490: Bronze metal movable type printing is created in China by Hua Sui.

  • 1492:

    • Leonardo da Vinci seriously theorizes about flying machines.

    • Martin Behaim invents the first map globe.

  • 1494: Whiskey is invented in Scotland.

It's important to note that while some inventions are attributed to a specific year or inventor, the development of many technologies was often a gradual process with contributions from various individuals and cultures.
