Summary
Jovan Deretić, Dragoljub Antić: Ancient history of Serbs and Russians 1 - Origin and spread of civilization
The book Ancient history of Serbs and Russians 1 - Origin and spread of civilization by Jovan I. Deretić and Dragoljub P. Antić presents theses about the early roots of Serbs and Russians through alternative interpretations of historical, linguistic and cultural development. The authors claim that a great civilization, which they call Serbo‑Rasian, arose in prehistoric times in the areas of the Danube and the Helm (Balkan) peninsula, and that it spread north and east from there, influencing the formation of language, religion and social structures. The book describes supposed older societies, migrations, assimilations and conflicts, and offers reinterpretations of familiar historical narratives.
