The Phantom Time Hypothesis: Did 300 Years of History Disappear?
In the 1990s, German historian Heribert Illig proposed the mind-bending Phantom Time Hypothesis, claiming nearly 300 years of history—between 614 and 911 AD—were fabricated. Illig argued that historical documents were altered, and events and figures, including Charlemagne, were invented. He suggested that the Gregorian calendar was manipulated by Emperor Otto III, Pope Sylvester II, and possibly Emperor Constantine VII to place Otto III in the year 1000 AD. Critics cite ample evidence to dispute this theory, but it remains a provocative idea that challenges our understanding of history. Explore this fascinating hypothesis and decide for yourself.
