Is it true that the term Middle Ages was coined by Renaissance humanists to describe the period between antiquity and their own era?

Yes. One scholarly article states the term 'Middle Ages' was coined by Italian humanists to bridge the classical and early modern periods, and several reference works confirm Renaissance humanists framed the intervening era between antiquity and their own time.
