Show Notes

Step into a historical enigma with us as we explore the Phantom Time Hypothesis. This episode takes you through a controversial theory that suggests a segment of the Middle Ages may have never occurred. We’ll dissect the claims of Heribert Illig, who proposed that a conspiracy led by Holy Roman Emperor Otto III, Pope Sylvester II, and possibly Byzantine Emperor Constantine VII, created a fictitious timeline. Was Charlemagne merely a figment of rewritten history? Dive into this fringe theory with us and decide for yourself.
