Where modern solfeggio numbers came from
Puleo, Horowitz, gematria narratives, medieval solmization, and how a modern chart became “ancient.”
What is measured
Medieval solmization syllables are historical fact. The specific modern Hz table as an unbroken ancient secret is not established by mainstream musicology. Always ask: primary manuscript, or 20th-century reconstruction?
What is claimed
Alternative histories invoke Pythagorean ciphers, biblical codes, and suppressed church knowledge. Whether or not you accept those stories, they form the living mythology that powers today’s solfeggio culture — worth studying as folklore of frequency.
