Abstract

The far Eastern version of the prehistory of mankind by astrophysicist A. Chechelnitsky is considered as a model of implementation of an interdisciplinary approach in the study of the past, which left no physical evidence. The contradictory evidence from ancient sources revealed by the scientist and their comparison with both biblical data and data from modern branches of knowledge and common-sense logic are justified as weighty arguments in favor of an alternative picture of the origin of history. It is argued that the concept of A. Chechelnitsky is aimed at overcoming the vices of modern thinking, reductionism and fragmentation of knowledge, in favor of methodological universalism, when the integration of cognitive methods provides a truly scientific search that reflects the moral position of the scientist.
