Anatoly Fomenko is probably the Russian mathematician you read, or someone talking about his work. He has a whole series of books about this theory, under the collected title "The New Chronology". I downloaded them all once, but never got round to reading any.
Recently there was also a series of long articles talking similar ground, on the Unz Review, by an anonymous author "The First Millennium Revisionist":
