Myths about the Battle of Kulikovo: the opinion of a historian

The farther into stories remains this or that event, the more mythology it acquires. This is especially true when it comes to wars. Moreover, myths can be formed in two directions. One of them is the exaggeration of this or that event, feat, even the glorification of persons who did not take direct part in the event. Others are the so-called "black myths", when the historical role of an event is tried in every possible way to belittle, offend the participants, etc.

A classic example of the "black myth" is associated with the Great Patriotic War. For example, these are well-known statements about allegedly one rifle for three or that the war "was won not by a Soviet soldier, but by an Anglo-American Lend-Lease."



What can we say about the events that remained in the distant past.

The most heated discussions have recently been going on in our country on the topic of the Mongol-Tatar yoke and the events associated with it. There is a group of people, including historians, who generally reject the very existence of the yoke, finding options for arguing their point of view.

A fair amount of judgments of a mutually opposite nature concerns the Battle of Kulikovo. It is unlikely that there is a person in our country who would not have heard anything about this battle at all, however, if you delve into the study of history, many questions arise. One of the main questions is the exact time and exact location of the event. Until now, historians dispute the hypothesis put forward about the very Kulikovo field where Dmitry Donskoy fought with Mamai.

The historian Oleg Dvurechensky notes that even the very concept of the "Battle of Kulikovo" is a myth, since the event is not mentioned in such a formulation in ancient sources. More often you can come across the concept of "Don battle".

            I read war and peace at school, instead of the prescribed passage from the anthology. The beginning is difficult, a lot of French. Probably there and stumbled
            The archipelago is very tedious, Solzhenitsin was generally gifted with not particularly literary talents. I would say mediocrity. But I read it in due time.
            Gone with the Wind is excellently written, easy to read and interesting.

        And this is from a small mind. It’s easy when I’ve read 2 books in my life - a blue book and a primer. Therefore, the answers are simply given - there are simply no other options in the skull. They cannot divide by zero, and the Bolsheviks organized a revolution and unwashed Russia.

        For example, what they have not invested in the head.

        - Previously, the climate was different. The average temperature was about 50 degrees. Although at school they taught about different ice ages, but somehow passed by. The ice age is completely related to ice. And the fact that we are now living in the Little Ice Age does not fit in the little head. And the great ice age, in general, is able to wipe out all the signs of civilization from the face of the earth, since many kilometers of ice blocks begin to move along the earth.

        - Is the earth round or flat? There is even nothing to think about, of course it is round. That is, with the theory of relativity, we poke into all the cracks and understand what a starting point is, but this is inapplicable with the Earth. At times I start a "dispute for the sake of a dispute", this is when you take a side with which you can disagree and give reasoned arguments. So one friend told me that if I am so stupid, I can check it - inflate the geosonde, tie a camera to it and see with my own eyes. And there is nothing to argue with such a comrade, because instead of knowledge and understanding there is a hole.

        What can we say about history. Is Tartary on the cards? There is. Has anyone at school or institute heard of her?

        Here they wrote to me below about birch bark and a smart boy from the 13th century who could write. It's a pity the scientists did not find out, but could he read? And why the 13th century? Did the boy write?
        And if we consider that the ancestors lived according to the "wrong calendar", should we consider the boy gifted, because at the age of 3, being able to write and read is strong.

            Average annual. The Vikings lived in Greenland (it's a fact, they found dwellings). In general, all life on Earth, and even more so human, completely depends on the climate.

    With all due respect to the Author, as a historian, I ask him to answer a number of questions about the Yoke that lie on the surface:
    1. Everyone knows that during the seizure and colonization of vast territories, the local population is being cross-linked! Look at Latin America, for example. Mestizos, mulattoes were formed ... Why is this not so in Russia? Or, did the Mongols spoil Russian girls? Or, Iga was not?
    2. The number of the Horde reached, according to historians, Hundreds of thousands of people! Let's take, say, 200 thousand! Each had a horse and 4-5 replacement horses! Have you digested this amount? A million, at least! Every horse needs food! Can you imagine its amount ?! After all, the Horde allegedly moved in winter! How do you represent the Million Horses Waterhole !? It would stretch for hundreds of kilometers!
    3. Every horse needs a shoe and a spare shoe! Can you imagine how much One horseshoe weighs and how much metal the Mongols needed to have Only for horseshoes !? And yet it is also necessary - edged weapons, arrowheads, spears, armor .... For all this, a Metallurgical Base is needed! Where did you see her in Mongolia !? There was no such opportunity even in the conquered countries !!!
    4. Have you ever been to Mongolia? Two or three yurts for many square kilometers! Where could the Mongols recruit hundreds of thousands of warriors?
    5. Why during the "IGA" time more churches were built in Russia than in the entire previous Christian history?
    6. Why is the conquest of this level not reflected in the History of the Mongols?
    These are only Superficial questions, as they say, Offhand! You can continue this topic indefinitely!

                    I was in the steppe in winter, the Kazakhs call the death of horses Jut - a massive death of livestock caused by icing of pastures or heavy snowfall, which makes it difficult for livestock to graze. So everything about the Kulikovo battle is doubtful. I was interested in this issue before, and so - the first mention of this battle was written 150 years after the battle itself. What do you think, over 150 years, have they misinterpreted a lot or a little?

                    There is nothing shameful in the fact that people eat horse meat, shameful is present when they eat their own vehicle. And this is not the fault of the one who eats his horse, but of the commander who brought his subordinate to such a state.

                      So the horses were used, for these purposes, both a vehicle and a hedgehog. Bulls are exactly the same, deer, llamas. And the vehicle and food, and there is nothing to be ashamed of, and dogs too. By the way, the horses are quite happy to eat dried and salted meat and fish, though if they are accustomed to this from fervor. The Mongols have seized an inexhaustible source of salt.

              What does the tanks have to do with it? Tanks are a response to the increased firepower of infantry on the defensive. Mongolian horses are just that. There is a related breed, the Yakut horse, it lives in free grazing even in winter. And feeds on pasture. These are not fairy tales.

      "According to historians Hundreds of thousands of people!" - it depends on which historians. I have met a more or less real number of 50-70 thousand people. About 4-5 replacement horses can also be said to be a myth. Although Napoleon brought several hundred thousand of them ...
      “We need a metallurgical base” - If you make it at a time, then you need it, but if you accumulate for years, especially weapons, which in those days were valued dearly and were never thrown away, then a completely solvable task.
      “To recruit hundreds of thousands of soldiers” - as I wrote above, not hundreds, but dozens, and secondly, about the blood tax, I hope you've heard?
      “More temples were built” - because it was more profitable for the Mongols not to cut out the population under the knife, but to milk the countries they conquered, giving them internal self-government.
      "Not reflected?" - I don't know, but it is reflected, for example, in European documents (the Mongols, after all, have sunk to Italy), but I myself have been to the ruins of Samarkand, I have seen them. wink

      For all the delusionalism of the official Karamzin concept of the "Mongol" invasion, the topic of the Don massacre is a completely different topic. In the first case, the Batuy "warriors of the winter forest" smashed the city to smithereens hundreds of miles away in the "non-stop" mode, while the Russian "natives" never dared to conduct large-scale military operations in winter, the maximum could conditionally from Pereyaslavl to Kostroma drive away - "get zipuns" and the prince-competitor from the city to turn, and that is not a fact that for a long time. This is the whole delusion. But the Battle of Kulikovo, whatever you call it, is a different topic. Concentrated confrontation of large combined military forces. On both sides, the troops "rallied", the opposing armies were multinational, and the most interesting thing is that the Russians won a victory over the "nomads" in a horse battle, which hitherto did not smell, starting from the meeting with the Advanced Regiment and ending with the cavalry strike of the Ambush Regiment. And the "nomads" are credited with the presence of the Genoese mercenary infantry, which is more than strange. Although, in both stories. separated by 2 centuries, there is one common strangeness: the problem of identifying the opposing sides.

      2) the number of hordes in the western campaign is a maximum of 50 thousand, of which no more than 30 thousand are in one place.
      3) are you sure that the Mongol horses needed horseshoes, are they really needed in the steppe?
      4) the Mongols did not recruit hundreds of thousands, 110 thousand, the entire militia of the Halki steppe dwellers can mobilize every fifth.
      5) during the Yoke, stone construction in Russia ceased, with the exception of Novgorod.

      With all due respect to the Author, as a historian, I ask him to answer a number of questions about the Yoke that lie on the surface:
      1. Everyone knows that during the seizure and colonization of vast territories, the local population is being cross-linked! Look at Latin America, for example. Mestizos, mulattoes were formed ... Why is this not so in Russia? Or, did the Mongols spoil Russian girls? Or, Iga was not?
      2. The number of the Horde reached, according to historians, Hundreds of thousands of people! Let's take, say, 200 thousand! Each had a horse and 4-5 replacement horses! Have you digested this amount? A million, at least! Every horse needs food! Can you imagine its amount ?! After all, the Horde allegedly moved in winter! How do you represent the Million Horses Waterhole !? It would stretch for hundreds of kilometers!
      3. Every horse needs a shoe and a spare shoe! Can you imagine how much One horseshoe weighs and how much metal the Mongols needed to have Only for horseshoes !? And yet it is also necessary - edged weapons, arrowheads, spears, armor .... For all this, a Metallurgical Base is needed! Where did you see her in Mongolia !? There was no such opportunity even in the conquered countries !!!
      4. Have you ever been to Mongolia? Two or three yurts for many square kilometers! Where could the Mongols recruit hundreds of thousands of warriors?
      5. Why during the "IGA" time more churches were built in Russia than in the entire previous Christian history?
      6. Why is the conquest of this level not reflected in the History of the Mongols?
      These are only Superficial questions, as they say, Offhand! You can continue this topic indefinitely!

      Judging by your questions, you are not at all in the subject. You don't even know such trivial questions about metallurgy among the Mongols. Do you know that the Mongolian peoples have the best silver coinage in the world? Or about mestizos, you know what the Mongolian army was famous for? Not horse archers (there were plenty of them in other armies), not tactics (the commanders were no more stupid). And an iron discipline, the same as that of early Rome. And if there was an order to destroy a village / city, it was destroyed, not raped, not taken prisoner (how will you drag slaves with horsemen?), But simply killed. And the dead give birth? An army came and destroyed the city. Anything about what impurities you can talk about here? They brought the locals into submission and left. There were no garrisons and all that. The Mongols did not settle with the Russians or someone else, with the exception of several clans who went to Central Asia. If the Mongols did not settle, where did the genes come from? But even such a simple analysis is apparently beyond the power of some people. And they prove something. Even the materiel did not bother to find out and still criticize. Do you know that any faith was supported in the Mongol Empire? Anyone, there were many Nestorian Christians among the Mongols. That's amazing, huh? About a quarter of the troops. And the Genghisids understood that religion controls the population, if you control religion, then you control the people. The letter "L" from the word "Logic"

At the same time, they managed to get close not noticeably and quickly. I understand in the days of the Romanovs to engage in substitute history, but Soviet and modern .. to expand imagination instead of looking for more real events? Perhaps these people who will play all sorts of nonsense, do not identify themselves as a simple Russian people, but as nobles who speak exclusively German and French.

    What's the difference what it was called then and when it happened to the nearest hour? Just take it for granted.
    The exact date of Christ's birth was taken for granted, December 25 or January 7, without establishing the exact fact of his existence. And as the son of God, i.e. demigod, he was considered much later. So what? has it somehow influenced the development of civilization? So why the hell is the "historians" itching to deal with the history of Rus-Russia? There is only one answer. This is not a struggle for the truth, as they present it. This is a work to break down the historical self-awareness of the peoples inhabiting Russia. More precisely, even one people - those who consider themselves Russian.
    Conversations about the impossibility of hordes of Mongols and the lack of written confirmation from the Mongols themselves are conversations from the evil one. There is no written evidence of the existence of Adam and Eve either, but this did not affect anything, does not affect and will not affect anything. This is just one of the myths of the Jewish people.

    Either the author claims that the Russian soldiers did not have any professionalism, then on the contrary, he speaks of the high training and experience of the commander leading the horse lava into the attack. A lot of words, repetitions. Is the author trying to convince him that he is right with his verbosity?

    Historians have not yet been able to determine the 300-year period of the so-called. The Mongol-Tatar yoke in Russia, and even about the Kulikovo battle, you can not even remember. It is better to let everything remain as it is written in the History of the State of the Russian Mr. N.M. Karamzin.

      Ruled out. After all, even the official historian had to revise Karamzin's theses about the "Mongol-Tatars". How does Karamzin describe them? Some savages in animal skins, armed with primitive and crude weapons, defeated their enemies with their biomass.
      But as time went on, the views on the "Tatar-Mongol" had to be revised, the picture was too implausible. "Countless hordes of Mongols" became more and more estimated, but the Asian savages acquired advanced weapons and tactics, were in armor, like those of wealthy samurai. All the more wonderful and wonderful, as Alice put it.
      It is characteristic that only the 3rd edition of Karamzin's opus has come down to us. The first two were rejected by the august editor and censor. So, not everyone wants to believe such an "edited" and tendentious work of a student of Miller and Schletzer.

There are no genes for men and women almost equally (the institution of polygamy did not take root in Russia) ..and don't fuck it up here disputes ..

        Where were the slaves taken? To Mongolia? So after all, the Mongols are genetically very homogeneous, which is not typical for the "imperial" people.
        By the way, how to distinguish those born from violence from those born without? Not written on the forehead.
        There was a yoke, there was not ... but the Mongols have nothing to do with it. The Chukchi had a better chance of creating an empire than these steppe losers.

            Slave markets existed in Italy when the Golden Horde was already forgotten.
            In the Cafe, the markets were dominated by slaves - not Slavs, but the inhabitants of the Caucasus. Logistics costs are less, it is easier to deliver the goods.
            The relationship between Kafa and the Horde has not always been smooth. The Horde fought more than once with the inhabitants of Kafa, so severe restrictions were imposed on the Horde in the Cafe. Kafu cannot be viewed as a "business branch" of the Horde.

            Are you aware that, starting from the beginning of the 14th century (possibly earlier), the "Tatars" began to move to Russia? They went to the service of the princes, adopted Christianity, acquired families. Noblemen - became nobles. Was their offspring also genocidal, starved to death?
            So the genes had to stay, anyway. And they are not.
            It's just that the Horde were not strangers from distant lands, representatives of a different race. They were the same Russians, for the most part. The Horde is the "Dark Half" of Russia, generated by its problems, strife and contradictions.

              How many slaves became wives in the horde? .. the rest of the survival of children is 1 out of 10 .. Twenty-thirty Tatar surnames among 15,000 Russian noblemen .. No need to create unnecessary entities .. About logistics-Volga and Don for what or merchants of that time for idiots hold? After a couple of centuries, with unchanged logistics, about 5,000,000 Slavs left through Kafa to the Ottoman port.

    The Battle of Kulikovo has the same relation to "liberation from the Tatar-Mongol yoke" as Napoleon's fiasco at the Berezina to the Red Banner over the Reichstag. On the Kulikovo field, there was no confrontation between the Russians and the Horde, since Mamai himself cannot be identified with the Horde. In relation to the Horde, Mamai was a usurper, a renegade traitor. The Moscow army defended not only its principality, but the interests of the Horde itself, which Mamai, if successful, would have made an instrument of external forces, Western puppeteers.
    Shortly before the battle, Mamai was expelled from the capital of the Horde by the faithful Horde patriot - Khan Tokhtamysh, although he managed to pocket the Horde treasury.
    Dmitry, to whom both Mamai and Tokhtamysh made an offer of an alliance, made the right choice - he took the side of Tokhtamysh. Moscow's position in the conflict was not "peak", Mamai had more reasons for despair (a truly "Mongolian" name, yeah). So Dmitry could quite confidently go to the “arrow”. The only chance left for Mamai was to smash the allies in parts. But his army, which consisted not only of combat-ready Horde people, but also of the steppe rabble (Polovtsy, Nogai, etc.) turned out to be weaker than the Moscow one (although it had 1.5-2 times the numerical superiority).
    After the repeated defeat, from Tokhtamysh, Mamai will flee to Kafa, to the Genoese (they probably played the role of representatives of the "puppeteers"). But, as an unlucky and useless slave, he will receive a reward from his masters - edged weapons with introduction into the body. The career of "Trotsky of the 14th century" ended there.
    The "Igo" will last another 100 years, although Dmitry probably tried to speed up the process of getting rid of him. However, his attempt was thwarted by Tokhtamysh, which was right and met with understanding by the Russians. It was still early for Rus to get rid of the Horde "roof", it had too little of its own forces, and its western neighbors were too strong.
