Palace of Beloselsky-Belozersky


On Nevsky Prospekt, near the Anichkov Bridge, there is a remarkable building with Atlases and Caryatids, painted red. This is the palace of the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes, which currently houses a concert hall and other cultural institutions. The Beloselsky-Belozersky Palace is the last private palace that was erected on Nevsky Prospekt. Its owners, the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes, were representatives of an ancient princely family in Russia, noble statesmen who worked for the good of the country.

In 1797, the princess Anna Grigorievna Beloselskaya-Belozerskaya acquired a plot of land on the banks of the Fontanka from Senator I.A. Naryshkin. Anna Grigorievna was the second wife of Prince Alexander Mikhailovich Beloselsky-Belozersky, with whose dowry this family purchased the house. In 1803, the Beloselsky-Belozerskys bought Krestovsky Island from the descendants of the Razumovskys.
In 1799-1800, according to the design of F.I. Demertsov, a new house in the classicist style was built on the site of Naryshkin’s house, the main facade of which faced Nevsky Prospekt.
Over time, this mansion ceased to suit the owners. It began to seem uncomfortable, and the modest classical façade began to seem inappropriate to their high position in society. The new Beloselsky-Belozersky Palace was commissioned to be designed by the architect Andrei Ivanovich Stackenschneider, and the construction of the new palace was completed in 1848.
Architect Stackenschneider generously decorated the façade of the building with decorative Baroque elements: atlases, caryatids, columns, pilasters. The interior of the palace is also lavishly decorated. Its premises begin with a wide grand staircase with marble fireplaces.

The owners of the house, the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes, held receptions and balls in their house. Even Alexander III attended the receptions, who later bought the house from the princes and gave it to his youngest son Sergei. Later the palace began to be called Sergievsky.
After the October Revolution of 1917, the building was nationalized. During the Soviet period, various public organizations were located here, and the main tenant was the Republican Committee of the CPSU of the Kuibyshev region. During the siege, the building was damaged by bombing and shelling, and after the war restoration work was carried out in the palace.
In 1992, the St. Petersburg Cultural Center was located in the palace. And since January 2003, the building has been transferred to the jurisdiction of the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation.
Much attention is paid to the technical condition of the palace; inspections and restoration work are carried out.

From the history of the Belozersky principality


Belozersk Principality(center - the city of Beloozero, since 1777 - Belozersk) was in the family of descendants of Gleb Vasilkovich, the youngest son of the Rostov prince Vasilko Konstantinovich. At the beginning of the 14th century, the label for the Belozersk principality was acquired by Ivan Kalita, but the local dynasty in Beloozero survived.
The Belozersk princes took part in the Battle of Kulikovo; Prince Fyodor Romanovich and his son Ivan fell on the battlefield. The last Belozersk prince was Ivan’s cousin, Yuri Vasilyevich.
At the end of the 1380s, the rights to Beloozero finally passed to Moscow.

The formation of small fiefs also took place in the Belozersk Principality. Small towns and even villages were allocated to the descendants of this dynasty. Gradually, all the appanage Belozersk princes moved to the service of the Moscow sovereigns. From the Belozersk Rurik dynasty came the families of princes: Beloselsky-Belozersky, Andozhsky, Vadbolsky, Shelespansky, Sugorsky, Kemsky, Kargolomsky and Ukhtomsky. Of these, by the beginning of the 18th century, only the Beloselsky-Belozersky, Vadbolsky existed (according to one version, the illegitimate daughter of one of the Vadbolsky princes was a famous artist, singer, collector, philanthropist and art critic, Princess Maria Klavdievna Tenisheva (between 1862 and 1867 - 1928)), Shelespansky and Ukhtomsky.

They received their family nickname from the fact that they owned Belyi Selo, located within the Belozersk land. “In the 16th and 17th centuries, the Beloselsky princes did not play any role, performing ordinary noble service and not rising above the steward. Only after the marriage of Prince Alexander Mikhailovich to the daughter of the secretary of Empress Catherine II, Grigory Vasilyevich Kozitsky, who brought as a dowry the huge fortune she received from her mother, née Myasnikova, Princes Beloselsky could occupy a high position among the Russian nobility and acquired great family ties.” However, Alexander Mikhailovich’s father, Prince Mikhail Andreevich Beloselsky (1702 - 1755), held important government posts. A vice admiral, he ruled the Admiralty Board from 1745 to 1749, and from 1747 he held the position of General Kriegs Commissioner of the Fleet, that is, he was responsible for all supplies of the naval forces. His wife was Countess Natalya Grigorievna Chernysheva (1711 - 1760), the sister of Field Marshal Zakhar Grigorievich Chernyshev.

One of the sons of Mikhail Andreevich, chamberlain Andrei Mikhailovich (d. 1779), was the Russian envoy in Dresden; he was succeeded in this post by his younger brother, Alexander Mikhailovich (1752 - 1809). He was in all respects a very remarkable person.

Prince Alexander Mikhailovich Beloselsky-Belozersky


He received an excellent education abroad, lived in Berlin for several years, and traveled around France and Italy. During these years, he made acquaintances, personal and through correspondence, with Voltaire, Rousseau, Beaumarchais, and later with Kant, La Harpe and other outstanding contemporaries. Communication with encyclopedists made the prince a staunch supporter of the ideas of the Enlightenment. In French, he wrote a number of philosophical and journalistic works published abroad. But he also composed in Russian, publishing, however, only the comic opera “Olinka, or Original Love,” which, at his request, was edited by N. M. Karamzin. Alexander Mikhailovich also collected works of art, forming one of the best collections in Russia. Since 1800, he was a member of the Russian Academy, since 1809, an honorary member of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Arts, and was also a member of the Bologna Institute, the Nancy Academy of Literature and the Kassel Academy of Antiquities. His official activities continued intermittently: first in diplomatic missions in Dresden, Vienna and Turin, under Alexander I he received the rank of actual privy councilor, and in 1808 - the court rank of obershenk. Paul I also made him a family commander of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem (Maltese), and as the eldest in the family of the Belozersky princes, Alexander Mikhailovich was named Prince Beloselsky-Belozersky. The right to this title for his descendants was confirmed by Alexander I in 1823.

The daughter from Alexander Mikhailovich’s first marriage (with Varvara Yakovlevna Tatishcheva) - Zinaida Alexandrovna (1789 - 1862) married Prince Nikita Grigorievich Volkonsky. This is the famous Zinaida Volkonskaya, the owner of the famous Moscow salon, which brought together the largest figures of Russian culture of that time.
From his second marriage (with Anna Grigorievna Kozitskaya), Alexander Mikhailovich Beloselsky-Belozersky had several children, including his son Esper (1802 - 1846). He graduated from the Moscow School of Column Leaders and served in the Life Guards Hussar Regiment. Lieutenant Prince Beloselsky-Belozersky was involved in the investigation into the case of the Decembrists, but it turned out that he was not a member of secret societies, although he knew about their existence. He fought with the Turks in the war of 1828 - 1829, then in the Caucasus, died as a major general, contracting typhus during an inspection of the infirmaries of the Nikolaev railway (St. Petersburg - Moscow). From his marriage with Elena Pavlovna Bibikova (1812 - 1888), the stepdaughter of General A.H. Benkendorf, Esper Alexandrovich had six children.

Prince Konstantin Esperovich(1843 - 1920), retinue major general and adjutant general, member of the council of the Main Directorate of State Horse Breeding, nephew of the famous Princess Zinaida Volkonskaya, died in Paris, in exile. He was married to Natalia Dmitrievna Skobeleva, the sister of the famous “white general” Mikhail Dmitrievich Skobelev. Their eldest son Prince Sergei Konstantinovich(1867 - 1951), a graduate of the Corps of Pages, a cavalryman, at the time of the revolution he was with the rank of lieutenant general, the head of the Caucasian cavalry division. His sister Olga Konstantinovna(1874 - 1923) was the first wife of Major General, Head of the Imperial Military Campaign Office Prince Vladimir Nikolaevich Orlov(1869 - 1927). Skobelev's niece, Princess Orlova, remained in the history of Russian art due to the fact that she posed for Valentin Serov for one of his best portraits: an elegant lady, dressed in the latest fashion, gracefully sits against the backdrop of an elegant interior, and her head, slightly turned towards the viewer, is crowned with a wide-brimmed dark hat. When the artist was asked why he paid so much attention to this accessory, Serov wittily replied: “Otherwise it wouldn’t be Princess Orlova.” Nowadays this masterpiece adorns one of the halls of the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg.

Son of Prince Vladimir Nikolaevich Orlov and Olga Konstantinovna - Prince Nikolai Vladimirovich Orlov(1891 - 1961) in April 1917 married the princess of imperial blood Nadezhda Petrovna (1898 - 1988), who belonged to the Nikolaevich branch of the House of Romanov and was the niece of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Army during the First World War, Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaevich the Younger.

Prince Sergei Sergeevich Beloselsky-Belozersky (1895 - 1978)

Son of Sergei Konstantinovich - Prince Sergei Sergeevich Beloselsky-Belozersky(1895 - 1978) played a big role in the history of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia with his donations and personal participation, and was a tireless guardian of its needs. After the revolution in Russia, together with his father and grandfather, Sergei Sergeevich emigrated to Finland, where the Beloselsky-Belozerskys managed to transfer their capital in time. In 1919 - in the North-Western Army of General Yudenich, chief quartermaster of the headquarters of the 2nd Corps. After the defeat of the White movement in the North-West, he lived in England and France. Unfortunately, he had no sons (only two daughters), and with his death the line of the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes ended.

BELOSELSKY-BELOZERSKY ALEXANDER 1752-1809 As the eldest in the family of the Belozersky princes, he received an addition to his surname; in 1823, the right to a double surname was approved for his offspring. Actual Privy Councilor, Chief Schenk. Senator. Chamberlain. Honorary member of the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts and many other academies.

  • "Brockhaus and Efron":
    Volkonskaya, Princess Zinaida Alexandrovna - writer; genus. in 1792 in Turin from the marriage of Prince Al. Mich. Beloselsky with Varvara Yakovlevna Tatishcheva; She received her first literary and aesthetic education thanks to the care of her father, who was known as a French-Russian writer (see). Having married Prince Nikita Grigorievich V. († in 1844), she first lived in St. Petersburg, where, due to her husband’s rank and wealth, her intelligence and beauty, she occupied a high position at court. When, then, after 1812, she left Russia, she occupied the same brilliant position abroad, especially in Teplice and Prague, where Emperor Alexander, who was in Germany at that time, loved to be in her company, just as then, when she lived in Paris after 1813, and then in Vienna and Verona, during the brilliant European congresses. Returning to Russia, she devoted herself to the study of her native antiquities, but in St. Petersburg her scientific aspirations aroused displeasure and ridicule in high society, and therefore at the end of 1824 she moved to Moscow. Here she became the center of everything that was educated and talented in Russian life, and she herself began to study her native language, which she knew little before, and to study Russian literature and Russian antiquities: she was interested in songs, customs, folk legends. In 1825, she even began to work on the founding of a Russian society for the establishment of a national museum and for the publication of ancient monuments. Her constant interlocutors were Zhukovsky, Pushkin, Prince Vyazemsky, Baratynsky, Venevitinov, Shevyrev and others. Pushkin dedicated “Gypsy” to her and in his famous message on this occasion: “Among scattered Moscow” he called her “the queen of muses and beauty”; On her departure from Moscow in 1829, Baratynsky wrote the poem: “From the kingdom of whist and winter.” Even the respectable and strict philosopher I.V. Kireevsky succumbed to the irresistible charm of this woman and dedicated his only one to her, written by him in this unusual spirit, praise poem. In 1829, Princess V. moved from Moscow directly to Rome, where she died in 1862 as a strict devotee of Catholicism. By all appearances, this was a gifted nature that did not find satisfaction in social life, but at the same time extremely impressionable and addicted, and therefore not so persistent and constant as to devote itself to one particular task. Hence the transitions from the ideas of Rousseau to the study of nationality, from Russian antiquity to Catholicism. In his first works written in French: “Quatres nouvelles” (M. , 1819), she condemns the weaknesses of high society and expresses sympathy for primitive life among the savages of America, Africa and Asia. In "Tableau slave du V-me si e cle" (Paris, 1820; 3rd ed., Moscow, 1826; Russian translation in "Ladies' Magazine", 1825, part IX and separately M., 1825 and M., 1826; Polish adaptation: “Ladovid and Miliada, czyli poczatek Kijowa”, Warsaw, 1826) she depicts a prehistoric pan-Slavic type of paganism and Karamzin’s hints and guesses are sometimes successfully filled in with her own imagination. At the same time, both in Russian and French, she began to write the novel "Olga", which remained unfinished (excerpt in the Moscow Observer, 1836, parts XIII and IX), but in which she wanted to present the struggle of various pagan elements that arose in the initial Russian history with the advent of the Varangians, the victory of the Slavic element over the Varangian and finally the decay of Slavic paganism under the blows of Christianity. A poet and composer, she herself wrote cantatas and composed music for them; her “Cantata in Memory of Emperor Alexander I” (Karlsruhe, 1865) is known. One might think that even in Rome, living as a hermit, she did not forget Russia. Thus, in the language of the poem: “Neva Water”, written in 1837 on the occasion of the fire of the Winter Palace (published in the “Russian Archive”, 1872), lies another stamp of passion for Russian antiquity, Russian folk dialect. The collected works of Princess V. were published by her son, Prince Alexander Nikitich V. († in 1878 in Rome) in Russian ("Works of Princess Zinaida Alexandrovna Volkonskaya", Karlsruhe, 1865) and French ("Oeuvres choisies de la prinsesse Zene ide Volkonsky", Paris and Karlsruhe, 1865).

    In the Family DNA database you can find information about Stepan Georgievich, a descendant of the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes (kit 188621). According to the current classification of DNA genealogy, he belongs to the so-called Venedian family R1a1a1b1a2a or YP569. If you follow the family pedigree, then Stepan Georgievich on his father's side should be a direct descendant of Grand Duke Vsevolod the Big Nest. However, the living direct descendants of Prince Vsevolod belong to the Monomashichs and have a completely different paternal Y chromosome, which is designated as N1c1a1a1a1. This means that the living princes Beloselsky-Belozersky cannot be recognized as direct descendants of Prince Vsevolod the Big Nest, and, consequently, of Prince Rurik on the paternal side. They can only be called pseudo-Rurikovichs, who appeared in Belozerye much later. How the Rurikovich-Monomashichi in Belozerye suddenly turned into pseudo-Rurikovich is unknown. This could happen for two reasons: either because of the infidelity of one of the prince's wives, or because of the inheritance of the princely title on the maternal side. The latter could have happened, for example, after the Battle of Kulikovo, which took place in 1380, when the entire separate Belozersk squad was almost completely killed. All the then Belozersky princes died along with her.

    According to Family Tree DNA data dated March 15, 2014, the male Y chromosome of many of my ancestors, the Don Cossacks Popovs, also belongs to the Venedian family YP569. At the same time, my personal 12-marker haplotype of the Y chromosome (kit 318304) completely coincides with the same haplotype of Stepan Georgievich.

    Moreover, the traces of my most ancient ancestors lead precisely to the Belozersk principality, namely: to the Kirilo-Belozersky monastery. For example, it is known for sure that one of them is buried here - Ivan Vasilyev's son, who died, most likely, in 1559, when his son Savluk Ivanov's son Vasilyev gave 5 rubles in memory of his father: “Summer 7067...Prince Volodymerov Andreevich, clerk Savluk gave according to his father, according to his Ivan, 5 rubles, and written in the hay.”

    Several decades earlier, other persons bearing the surname Popov were also mentioned in the same monastery. Among them, for example, Ivan Popov, son of Frolov, and Gridya Popov, son of Okulov. Around 1397-1427 they were hearers and guardians when writing charters of the Belozersk monastery. Greedy's brother, Semyon Popov, son of Okulov, was also mentioned in the acts of the Belozersky Monastery at that time. Another of their brothers, Isak Popov, son of Okulov, was rumored to have been mentioned in neighboring Pereslavl, and, together with Ivan Popov, the priest of the Monastery of the Holy Savior.

    The most ancient ancestors of the Belozersk Popovs were certain Okul and Frol. As for Okul, in the years 1380-1408 he served as priest in the Church of the Transfiguration in Fedosin Gorodok. He also owned land near the Sheksna River. He also wrote a deed of sale to Kirill, abbot of the Belozersky monastery (1337-1427) for the Migachevo village and this deed for a wife on Volochok. Among his sons the above-mentioned Gridya, Semyon and Isak were known. His daughter was also mentioned, who became the wife of clerk Ostash the priest’s son. At the same time, Misha, “the brother of the Okulov priests,” was also mentioned, rumored when buying land near the Sheksna River. Among the sons of Michael, only Telesh was mentioned.

    In one of the charters after 1400, the village of Okulovskaya was also mentioned. Today this is the village of Okulovo, Ferapontovsky village council, Kirillovsky district.

    It can be noted that Okul served as a priest just after the Battle of Kulikovo. That is, he could have witnessed the death of the Belozersky princes. It is not yet possible to restore the origin of the Oculus itself. Whether he can be considered one of the ancestors of the Don Cossacks Popovs cannot yet be stated. However, in any case, it turns out that the probable ancestors of the Don Cossacks Popov and Stepan Georgievich, Prince Beloselsky-Belozersky, could have lived next to each other in the 14th century. Therefore, a completely natural question arises: when could their genealogical lines diverge: before or after the Battle of Kulikovo?

    If we compare my 17-marker haplotype with the same haplotype of Stepan Georgievich, then, according to calculations, our common ancestor could have been born approximately 752 years ago or in 1947-752=1195, that is, during the time of Vsevolod the Big Nest (1154-1212). If we compare 37-marker haplotypes, then our common ancestor with the princes could have been born approximately 1650 years ago or in 1947-1650=297, that is, many centuries before Vsevolod the Big Nest. In any case, it turns out that the ancestors of the Don Cossacks Popovs, contemporaries of the Battle of Kulikovo, could not be the ancestors of the living princes Beloselsky-Belozersky. Our common ancestor lived much earlier. Moreover, he could have lived at that time not even in Rus', but somewhere else.

    To continue the search, we will try, using the website www.semargl.me, to compile a 37-marker family tree of the closest relatives of Prince Stepan Georgievich (see tree 1 above).

    This 37-marker family tree of Stepan Georgievich's closest relatives shows that the closest are the Russian Alexandrov (kit 195251) and the Romanian Bogos (kit 71053). Both are highlighted in red. It turns out that the common ancestor of Stepan Georgievich and Alexandrov could have been born approximately 834 years ago or in 1947-834=1113, and the common ancestor of Stepan Georgievich and the Romanian could have been born approximately 1529 years ago or in 1947-1529=418. The genealogical lines of all the other relatives of Stepan Georgievich diverged even earlier.

    On the tree you can also find a representative of the Popov family (kit 395048). It is highlighted in blue. According to the tree, the common ancestor of Stepan Georgievich and this Popov could have been born approximately 1709 years ago or in 1947-1709 = 238, that is, around the same time when the paths of the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes diverged from the ancestors of the Don Cossacks Popov. The difference in dates is small, only about 297-238 = 59 years.

    Moreover, according to the same calculations performed using the Kilin-Klyosov calculator, if we compare my 37-marker haplotype with the same haplotype of the second Popov family, then our pedigree lines could have diverged approximately 1813 years ago, that is, even earlier - in 1947- 1813=134 AD Consequently, here we are dealing with completely different clans of the Popovs, although both of our clans belong to the same Venedian family.

    On the tree you can also find Kochergin, a resident of Russia (kit 229594) and Pavilionis, a resident of Lithuania (kit 219661). Both are also highlighted in blue. The fact is that, according to calculations performed using the Kilin-Klyosov calculator, both of these citizens are my closest relatives. Our common ancestor with each of them could have been born approximately 880 years ago or in 1947-880=1067. At the same time, according to the 37-marker family tree, the result is somewhat different. The common ancestor of these citizens and the second Popov family could have been born approximately 1326 years ago or in 1947-1326=621. This date differs by almost five centuries from the date of divergence of the two Popov families in 134. However, in any case, it turns out that the genealogical lines of both Popov families and the family of the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes diverged many centuries before the Battle of Kulikovo and before the appearance of my probable ancestor in Belozersk in the person of Okul or Frol. Consequently, Okul or Frol, most likely, could not be the “culprits” of suppressing the Monomashich clan in Belozersk and replacing it with the Vened clan. Most likely, such a “culprit” could be one of the ancestors of the above-mentioned Russian Alexandrov.

    On the other hand, it is also impossible to say exactly which family of Popovs Okul and Frol, as well as their descendants, belonged to. This could be either the clan of the Don Cossacks Popovs, or the second clan of the Popovs, or the clan of some other Popovs (kit 151263, 82733 or 327500), but they do not belong to the Venedian family, but to completely different haplogroups: E1b1b1a1a, N1c1 and R1b.

    Let's return again to family tree 1 and once again pay attention to a resident of Romania with the last name Bogos. A completely natural question arises: why is this Romanian one of the closest relatives of Stepan Georgievich? How could this happen? Let's try to find the answer using the following 37-marker family tree (see tree 2).

    This 37-mark family tree of the closest relatives of a Romanian with the surname Bogos shows that among them the closest are two more Romanians with the exact same surname. Their common ancestor could have been born approximately 278 years ago or in 1947-278=1669. There is nothing surprising here.

    Among other closest relatives of the Romanian, the tree shows the Russian Ukholkin (kit 176225). Their common ancestor could have been born approximately 1483 years ago or in 1947-1483=464. What is interesting about this time? What events took place at this time along the banks of the Danube?

    Here you can once again recall the Sciri tribe. The most ancient mention of this tribe was left to us by the Roman historian Pliny the Elder (22-79 AD): “IV.13.96-97... no less, according to the idea, is Eningia. Some say that it is inhabited up to the Vistula River (Vistula - B.P.) by Sarmatians, Wends, Skyrs, Hirrians, that the bay is called Kilipen and the island at its mouth Latris, then another bay, Lang, border Cimbra." According to these lines, in the 1st century AD. the Skirs were immediate neighbors of the Wends and lived next to them on the southern shores of the Baltic Sea.

    Later, the Gothic historian Jordanes (b. 551 AD) wrote the following about the Skyri:
    “Hunimund and the Swavas, having devastated Dalmatia, returned to their lands, and Tiudimer, brother of Valamer, the king of the Goths, not so much grieving over the loss of herds as fearing that the Swavas - if this profit went unpunished for them - would move on to even greater unbridledness, so [vigilantly] watched their passage that in the dead of night, when they were sleeping, he attacked them at Lake Pelsoda and, unexpectedly starting a battle, pushed them back so much that he even captured King Gunimund himself, and his entire army - that the part that escaped the sword was subjugated to the Goths. But since he was a lover of mercy, having taken revenge, he showed favor and, having reconciled with the Svava, adopted his captive and released him along with his fellow tribesmen to Svavia. The same, forgetting about his father’s mercy, after some time harbored an insidious plan in his soul and aroused the Sciri, who were then sitting on the Danube (Danube - B.P.) and lived in peace with the Goths, so that they would break away from the alliance with the latter and unite their weapons with him, came out and attacked the Gothic people.

    The Goths fought so hard, repaying the rebels both for the death of their king and for the insult inflicted on them, that from the Sciri tribe there was almost no one left who would bear this name - and even then with disgrace - there was no one left; and so they all died.
    Frightened by their death, the Svavian kings Gunimund and Alaric set out on a campaign against the Goths, relying on the help of the Sarmatians, who approached them as allies with their kings Bevka and Babai. They called on the remnants of the Sciri, so that they, together with their elders Edika and Gunulf, fought fiercely, as if in revenge for themselves; There were with them [with the Swavas] the Gepids, and considerable help from the Rug tribe, and other tribes gathered from everywhere; so, having gathered a huge number [of people], they camped near the river Bolia, in Pannonia.” But again they all suffered a terrible defeat from the Goths.

    And all this happened in the middle of the 5th century AD, that is, at the time when the genealogical lines of the Russian Ukholkin and the Romanians named Bogos diverged.
    “Some time after Augustulus was installed as emperor in Ravenna by his father Orestes, Odoacer, king of the Torquilings, leading the Sciri, Heruli and auxiliary troops from various tribes, occupied Italy and, having killed Orestes, overthrew his son Augustulus from the throne and sentenced him to punishment of exile in the Lucullan fortification in Campania."

    According to these lines, it turns out that in 476 the Sciri took part in a military campaign in Italy. Moreover, the campaign was successful. As a result, “the Scyrs, Sadagarians and part of the Alans with their leader named Kandak received Lesser Scythia and Lower Moesia,” that is, they received some lands on the banks of the Danube.

    If now the lines written by Pliny the Elder and Jordanes about the Sciri are compared with the results of calculations of the family tree 2, then we can assume that the Romanians with the surname Bogos are most likely not only representatives of the Wendish family, but in a narrower sense they can also be descendants of the tribe skyrov. After all, it was the Skyrs who left the Wends to the south to the banks of the Danube. In this case, it turns out that the Skyrs themselves are a branch of the Venedian family! Apparently not by chance in the 1st century AD. they lived side by side with the Wends off the coast of the Baltic.

    On family tree 2, a resident of Belarus with the last name Konoshonok is highlighted in blue. He is also one of my closest relatives. Our common ancestor may have been born approximately 880 years ago. According to the tree, it turns out that the common ancestor of this Belarusian and Prince Stepan Georgievich could have been born approximately 1826 years ago or in 1947-1826 = 121 AD. This date practically coincides with the date obtained using the Kilin-Klyosov calculator when determining the life time of the common ancestor of the prince and the Don Cossacks, the Popovs. Therefore, we can make the final conclusion that the paths of the princes Beloselsky-Belozersky and my Popovs diverged in the first centuries of our era, when the Vends and Skyrs lived next to each other at the mouth of the Vistula.

    If we once again pay attention to family tree 2, we can note that the most distant relatives of the princes and the above-mentioned Romanians on the tree are shown on the tree: a resident of Uzbekistan named Jalimbet and the famous traveler N.M. Przhevalsky. According to the tree, it turns out that approximately 1807 years ago or in 1947-1807 = 140 AD. the common ancestor of the Uzbek Jalimbet and the Pole Przhevalsky could have been born. At first glance it seems that this is impossible. However, we need to remember what archaeologists wrote while excavating ancient settlements near the Aral Sea. And they noted with surprise that the statuary ossuaries of Khorezm were strikingly similar to the ossuaries of the Etruscans. Subsequently, such burials in urns became widespread among the Slavic tribes who lived in the 6th century between the Dnieper and the Elbe in the area of ​​the archaeological cultures of Prague-Korchag and Prague-Penkovska. Why did this happen? Did some Etruscans end up near the shores of the Aral Sea and then return back?

    Previously, I already had to explain that the Etruscans or Tusci, two centuries BC, left Italy into voluntary exile not somewhere, but to the southern shores of the Baltic Sea, where the city of Tusk (now Pultusk) and the country around it soon appeared under called Russia. Therefore, the sought-after statuary ossuaries could have appeared near the Aral Sea only thanks to some immigrants from this ancient Russia. It was in this country, and not in Central Asia, that the common ancestor of both Przhevalsky and the Uzbek Jalimbet could have lived. This can again be confirmed by constructing another family tree (see tree 3).

    This 37-marker family tree of close relatives of the Uzbek Jalimbet shows that his ancestors 2158 years ago and even earlier could have been born, most likely, in the territory of Lithuania or Poland. How they later ended up near the Aral Sea is unknown. Over time, under pressure from the hordes of the Huns, their descendants could return back to the Baltic Sea. The fact is that some of the jewelry of the Aral Sea population later resembled similar jewelry of Western Poland in the 4th century (Przeworsk, Zarubinets and Imenkovsk cultures).

    It is quite possible that Jalimbet is one of those descendants of the Roxalan tribe who remained in the territory of present-day Uzbekistan. Indeed, under the onslaught of the Huns, it was the Roxolans who not only then returned from the shores of the Aral Sea to Europe, but for some reason appeared precisely on the southern shores of the Baltic Sea. Here, in the middle of the 6th century, they entered into a military alliance with the local Masons. And even became related to them. The leaders of the Masons were then Antones and his son Chanvig, and the king of Roxolania was Chanibeh. Noteworthy is the similarity between the names of the mason Chanviga and Roksolan Chanibeh. It is unlikely that this happened by accident.

    Several centuries later, a man named Yatvyag was born in the same place. From him came the name of the country of Yatvingia. The origin of the Yatvingians was still unknown. Judging by the similarity of the second part of the names Chan (viga) and Yat (vyaga), we can assume their close family relationship. In this case, the Yatvingians could well be descendants of the Masons. After all, both of them lived in the same place, they just changed their leaders. If Mazo, Antones and Chanvig lived in the 6th century, then Yatvingia lived in the 10th century.

    These are the conclusions one can come to if, using the achievements of modern DNA genealogy, one follows in the footsteps of the closest relatives of the Beloselsky-Belozersky princes.
