The Development of Architecture in Connection with the Turn of the Millennium

Let us take architecture and the influences on it. In 3000 BC, the pyramids were built; in 2000, hut construction began (the age of Abraham). In 1000 BC, Solomon's temple was prepared. In 1000 AD, the new that was to come could not prevail due to the counteracting forces of Lucifer and Ahriman. We see the Normans, who spread from Scandinavia across Western and Central Europe, trying to express something in their wooden buildings that could not come to full development. Certain lines are inherent in them, but not further developed because the Ahrimanic influence prevented it. Instead, Moorish culture arose and the architecture of Cordoba and Granada, the horseshoe arch and the pointed arch, which supplanted the truly Christian round arch of Romanesque architecture. In Moorish culture, one can immediately see the anti-Christian influence in the pointed arches, which should actually have been round. This is the sign of Ahriman. Thus, Ahriman acted as the Antichrist in architecture by replacing the round Romanesque arch with the horseshoe or pointed arch. He worked through the Moors and also through the Turks; he prevented the art of the Normans from developing, whose wooden buildings, which they erected throughout Europe, could not provide what they should have been. This is why we do not find buildings from the year 1000 as we do from earlier millennia.
