a fact that allows us to clarify that it is obvious that the buried person took part in the battle, but we know that most of the owners of the lutsk maidan and members of their families died in such large battles in which they could have participated, it could have been either the battle on kalka or the period during the campaign of khan batya, as during the campaign of khan batya, volyn was devastated and there were no conditions for burying the prince according to all the rites, as it was solemn. so we only have the battle on kalka. and there is information about who died during this battle then one of the sons of ingory yaroslavovych , the lord of lutsk at that time, died, so it is likely that it was his turn. what was his name and information

about this prince, very little is known, only that izyaslav ingurovych was one of the four sons of the lutsk prince and very late received a share in the city from his father expensive in volyn, every prince cheered for the fact that a boy would definitely be born to his family, how should the prince behave when he already saw that he had several sons and each of them faced a rather difficult task grant the land, but izyaslav-ingerovich reigned for only three years, and a message came from kyiv that the princes were rallying to fight a new enemy that appeared on the borders of russia in the form of mongol hordes , then the question of whether to defend their land or not did not even arise, war was an integral part of the life of the young prince postponed his affairs and joined the anti-mongol coalition the battle took place in the territory of modern donetsk region the army of the russian princes was defeated due to poor coordination of actions today after 800 years thanks to computer

on the tomogram, we can reproduce the circumstances of death and clear igorovich. the arrow entered the temporal bone at an acute angle from behind, this indicates that the deceased was higher than the one who shot such a wound. perhaps in the only case, hello. if we imagine an ancient russian chase, it is usually on horseback and leaning against the horse to the back, i.e. to reduce the air resistance as much as possible, in this case it opens up for firing at you, the back opens up before firing at you, the occupied part of the head sweats in this case there during the pursuit, during the persecution, a part of it could have gotten to us, we have a ready reconstruction of izyaslav-ingorovich and now you will see what this man looked like 800 years ago, he gave his life for his land without thinking and now his history has returned we have two images of the faces of the descendants of

yaroslav the wise and it remains to do the last stage of the research, to carry out a dna examination of the skulls, this will make it possible to resolve the biggest historical dispute and answer the question: who were the princes of kyivan rus by origin, local or the natives of scandinavia know that our princes can be genetically related, and this is how it is historically with the scandinavian genetic line, together with the anthropologist inna potehina, in a special laboratory, we are conducting a selection of samples for dna research in the skull, it is best preserved in the strongest part of petros park no scientist in the last 200 years has been able to establish the origin of the dynasty of kyiv princes , ms. inna understands that we are on the threshold of one of the greatest historical discoveries of the 21st century selects samples for dna analysis with surgical

precision, with the selected samples, i fly to denmark, one of the best laboratories in the world for the study of ancient dna is located here , dr. margaryan meets me, we go down to the special repository of the university of copenhagen, where the largest collection of remains of ancient people in europe is kept, we are in in the basement of one of the university buildings, there is a storage room where we store our collection of skeletons, a metal door is nothing. as an entrance to a secret storage room, it is very a large building here, many such storages are stored here anthropological collections of hundreds even of thousands of skeletons from all over denmark 1000 skeletons from different eras in this section only the remains of the vikings are stored imagine several hundred of the toughest

conqueror warriors who terrorized all european countries now fit into a few xbox cardboard boxes one box corresponds to one individual we want to recreate the history of the viking genome danish scientists conducted dna analysis of hundreds of viking remains to find out the history of their origin, migration and dynastic connections. perhaps in one of these boxes lies the ancestor of the princes, whose remains we brought, of course, we know that ukraine is the territory where the vikings settled , and it would be fantastic if we could study their machines. we hand over the bone samples to dr. margaryan. we we are looking forward to the new discoveries that this project hides in itself, many unexpected things can await, research takes place

in a state-of-the-art laboratory, to get there you need to wear a special space suit so that none a foreign particle did not spoil the samples this is a social building that is ideal for working with ancient dna the right atmospheric pressure is maintained here the rooms are equipped with ultraviolet radiation this allows us to minimize the impact of the environment on our materials dna analysis of one sample costs from four to six thousand euros the high cost is due to the difficulty of obtaining information from tissue that is almost thousands of years old for our project danish la does everything for free scientists understand the importance of this research finally the results we are ready, we are meeting with dr. margaryan he says that he has very unexpected information in front of

us preliminary research results you said about unexpected discoveries on this graph each point represents a specific person for this study we took ukrainian, russian , norwegian and italian populations they are colored in different colors you can see on the graph that the lutsk sample is genetically much closer to the ukrainian and russian population than to the norwegian population, the situation is similar with the sample from chernihiv, it is also closer to the ukrainian and russian population than to the scandinavian, this is an unexpected discovery because from the very beginning we thought that they were descendants of the vikings , that is, they were not vikings, but probably no, we did not find scandinavian components, the data can become a real scientific sensation, the research results show that the samples we selected from

burials chernihiv and lutsk do not have a scandinavian component, but dr. margaryan is in no hurry to draw conclusions about the origin of the princely dynasty and says that he has even more sensational data, the sample from chernihiv belongs to itool autogroups it is quite widespread on the territory of ukraine, and the sample from lutsk belongs to another haplogroup arv1, it is widely distributed throughout europe, different haplogroups indicate that they are not related on the paternal line, they do not have direct family ties, information about the absence of direct family ties the researchers put us in a very difficult position. if both samples had the same haplogroup, this indicated a common ancestor and could not have been yaroslav the wise , but the results showed that they were buried in lutsk and in chernihivs have different ancestors, there are several

options to whom the remains could have belonged, these people may not have been princes but held a high position because they were buried in prestigious places and in expensive sarcophagi at the time, it very often happened that reburials took place, they could take out the remains of the first buried and put another therefore, the question of identifying the skeletons of a prince or some other historical person is hmm, ancient, another important option, the people we found are related to the princely dynasty and ruled our lands. different ancestors they have because of adultery there were many princes er-e illegitimately born so to

speak such cases in addition to these two versions , the results of dna analysis give many more options of who the people or remains could be, we found in the sarcophagi the only thing we cannot say for sure is whether they were relatives of yaroslav the wise what should we do now with the reproduction of the image of yaroslav the wise in my opinion, we have come to some kind of dead end well, first of all , we can no longer use these two images. we decided to completely change our strategy . the vector of research. yaroslav the wise and there is only one place where such information can be stored, the secret archive of the vatican, i am flying to italy to get to one of the largest archives in the world on the main square of the vatican.

father porfiry is waiting, it is nice to see you, the ship is crying because he has been studying the documents of the secret archive for 25 years and i promise to take us inside. you can only imagine what secrets of humanity are hidden in the heart of the apostolic capital, documents are stored in this archive starting from the 6th century. it has been little studied by ukrainian historians, although here continuously for centuries, information came from everywhere, including from ukrainian territories , our task is to find here documents from the era of yaroslav the wise, the archive building is one of the most protected places in the world to get inside you need to go through several security posts for researchers who want to work with old monoscripts there is a special room here, but this small room does not give an idea of ​​the scale of the entire building the main funds are underground where

outsiders are not allowed the length of the shelves themselves with documents reaches 85 km of all storage for us and raised this book pretending to be the correspondence of pope gregory vii with foreign rulers, one of the documents addressed to the power of yaroslav the wise to prince izyaslav or not, slanderous khedrichine luxors, hey savutin ed, to the apostolics, to the benediction, what does this mean to the queen of the beggars and his wife, greetings and apostolic blessing, the roman pope calls izyaslav the king of kievan rus, which is what even the then polish king, or how to say, he does not call a king, only calls him a prince duks here yevets, the princes of kievan rus had the title of kings

, which is not written about in any of the known chronicles today, this small detail helps to understand where our roots, ukrainian lands have always been in close contact with europe, unfortunately, this document does not contain any descriptions of the appearance of yaroslav's descendants, father porphyry tells about an ancient manuscript that is kept in the north of italy and contains authentic images of the children of yaroslav the wise, there are exactly two images, so that they are clear, i advise you to go there and to examine and show us in ukraine about a small town or via further at the foot of the alps, few people know, but it has many stories and was founded even under julius caesar . i am with the historian francesco zagor to understand whether and the images are stored in monoscript and can they help our research? this is a very rare

dream. 1000 years ago, she was given a gift by the polish princess gertrude. monasteries, today this prayer book is a unesco world heritage site and is kept in the chiviatali archaeological museum. a reproduction of yaroslav the wise's face, an authentic image of his grandson in a special repository, meets ensu de francesi, an expert on medieval images, italian scientists are very happy that the history of this book and its images will return to ukraine. look at how the decorated pages are gold and chicken equal in beauty and value in this book in those days, this

prayer book did not exist, it was considered an object of luxury, every detail here has a certain meaning, for example, gold is a symbol of holiness, aporture, a symbol of power, when on the light falls on the miniature, the places with gilding give the image of the volume. you will not see anything like this anywhere else. and now look at the image of yaroslav's grandson, a beautiful portrait of the yaropolk from prayer, he draws his hands to the apostle peter, here the prince is depicted as a young man, he is almost approaching him, and i never saw such amazing drawings , iropol, grandson of yaroslav mudry, favorite singertrudyk, the image is made with photographic accuracy . with darker hair and mustache, even the face of the prince has become a little more mature. can we say that the people depicted here have really natural facial features

, that it is not like the icons used to be drawn , that one person is depicted differently in youth and adulthood is clearly a sign of our naturalism the investigation was one step closer to failure, but the via then changed all the miniatures from the prayer book . it is a clearer image of the prince of the kievan rus era than all the existing ones, according to criminologists, the granddaughters are most similar to their grandfathers. and this increases our chances of getting a reliable image of yaroslav the wise at the age of 80. svitlana grinchenko traveled a thousand kilometers for one thing. she wants to return the history of her father and find his archaeological finds. swords from the dnieper. we are going to kharkiv to check the version about the train with museum exhibits that was bombed in in this area, if the artifacts

were saved, they could end up in the kharkiv historical museum, this is the only clue that we have, i have only one letter left from that time. in general, i am so impressed, so glad that at least some such moments remained reflecting this one all the time, no, he never wrote or just the whole wall comes out, no one wrote anything to anyone, he returned from exile, but he came back very sick, very sick with a heart, but i was in a pioneer camp at that time and so i didn't see my father, but he left for poltava very quickly and very quickly died there in the hospital, we often visit him at his grave, this is a very painful question, very painful, i don't know where

his grave is, this is my cross, i have a question that i have it always hurts, it always hurts that they wanted to find his grave for so many years, but they didn't succeed. if i had found his raspberry, it would have been easier on my heart. she has never seen him and loves him as if they had lived together all their lives . she is not just looking for archaeological finds, for her this is what her father makes real that is why it is so important we came to the kharkiv historical museum, we are disappointed already at the entrance, the museum employees do not know the history of most of the exhibits of the pre-war period

the documentation for them was lost but we have archival photos of the exact dimensions of the swords and sketches made by ms. svitlana's father, she does not want to go until she herself checks all the showcases of the exposition , this sword may have this element let 's just count the number of digits 1 2 3 4 5 61 2 3 4 5 6 definitely make us happy, the restoration center was told that no two can be the same, that this particle here could be a confirmation of the version about the train explosion, this is the upper part of this sword, this is incredible, this is some kind of miracle, just this part turned out to be an element of the first photo in a nearby display case. we noticed another one, which is very similar to the second sword from grinchenko's collection. the museum employees do not believe that it could be him , and they take out the exhibit so that we can see for ourselves. here

you see there is such a ledge for this one, and here is and here is his no, the expert examines centimeter by centimeter, i study every letter of the latin inscription on the blade of the sword, and he has fewer and fewer doubts, well , it is quite possible that he is the one who found this sword. maybe they didn't see how we found the headwaters, we found the one in the dnieper. no, we found this headwaters in your museum, where there is a broken sword, and next to it, this detail is nearby, look, the heart rejoices, what we found. we

shielded, we found three good swords . his jailer during her journey in parallel . our team tried to find the place where svitlana grinchenko's father is buried, we found this place in poltava, we did not tell mrs. svitlana about it, but in the case of her father there were his letters home for 80 years, her family thought that he did not write and exile but he wrote, the jailers simply seized his letters and did not send them to the address. this letter never reached your language. varenets, maria sergiivni, dear marusenko, i am alive and well. i am moving to

kansk, krasnoyarsk krai. i am tormented that i did not get to see, i know how you waited , i will not write much. i know that i worry, i know that you will never believe that i am guilty, but for now we are cutting down the forest live and most importantly, take care of yourself and children we are all you, i admire you and i am glad that you are with me, i have you, i live you are my lighthouse, i think that i will bear everything for you, just don't forget you this place is called monastyrska road , you can see here a large monastery and here is one of the oldest cemeteries in poltava, we tried for a very long time to find your father, but unfortunately no documents were preserved at all, not in the archives, apparently, but the only thing we managed to find out is that he is definitely buried here, yes, yes, this

is the exact place, half of these graves are just standing with nameless crosses, the grave would be a grave, but the place is his, i bow to him, my father, somewhere, somewhere, a bright memory and an eternal matter which troubled svitlana grinchenko for several decades has been completed. she returned to the family the history of her father and her father to the history of our country. in our laboratory, a real historical discovery is finally ready. now we will see what the most prominent figure of our history looked like. with the help of which they imposed someone else's history on us and

deprived us of our own, in order to return it and recreate the true face of the prince, we had to overcome a long way in ukraine, russia, italy and denmark to attract more than 30 scientists from different fields - this research took six months, but we achieved the goal, you want to look at it as soon as possible, ask now, let's see our work, it is necessary, the class is just simply a fantastic image. so alive, the prince is made of flesh and blood, absolutely real, as if he had just returned from some kind of campaign. expected, but in fact, it is a reproduction, because in the previous form he had such a wedge-shaped nose, he was so burdened with life, a bunch of wrinkles, you can

really see that they tried, found that one, shopped to make him alive. it seems to me that it is very important that, for example, last year there we tried to see and reconstruct the ingregor to his wife , now we have this image of yaroslav the wise, and in principle, millions of ukrainians can get close to that story, and it seems to me, well, to really feel these people a little closer i think that this is one of those steps that brings us closer to a better understanding of our past, this investigation showed how little we know about the past of our country, about heroes or how it will flow in our living and even about our own family, many annals and historical artifacts were exported to russia, there they rewrote our history for several centuries. but we don’t know our past, not only because of this, it’s up to us and our unwillingness to find out. sometimes one photo from the home archive can reveal a story that will change your life

. a few unknown exhibits from the museum will tell more than any textbook if you establish where they are from in ukraine there are thousands of unique artifacts that preserve the code of our country and allow better to understand who we really are, it is important for identification, for self-identification of us and for studying the history of our people, to know about our ancestors, even more about people, about the elite, you take western ukraine for example, and take them from kindergarten to the museum and show them their history, and they know about their kings and leaders ten times more than usual , ask any ukrainian schoolboy, he will not be able to tell you so much today we have to make our history of our state by tying ourselves to the deep roots of history and even the times of kyiv russia from the time of the creation of the state, which is more than a thousand

years old. now is the best time for us to finally start writing our history . the state is us. july 28 is the day of ukrainian statehood. their values ​​are loyalty, courage and strength, their elements, land, air and sea, their goals. victory victory and victory glory

to the naval forces of the armed forces of ukraine in the office of the chairman of the national bank, a telephone call rang out, the history of ukraine was reflected on the banknotes volodymyr the great yaroslav the wise bogdan khmelnytskyi ivan mazepa ivan franko - chairman the national bank calmly answered and assures you that our good traitors are gone, now ukrainians do not even have the idea that money is superfluous , big things begin with small steps

. so many elements of the evidence of ukrainian history have been erased from memory. where did they all go? this information is completely secret. it turns out that six symbols of power were kept in these estates. there was an original of the treaty of pereyaslav, after reading it, you could say that it was the accession of ukraine to russia. is it a simple union treaty, and it is precisely such documents that they show us our history anew, we will remove the heartstrings in a metal box, they dug up and pulled out the body of bohdan khmelnytskyi, and this is a symbol of the entire

nation to be with the truth for the statehood day of ukraine documentary project treasures of the nation from the cycle ukraine returning its history on the air of the only news today at 9:30 p.m. ah, ukraine!
