About Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov

mtDNA haplogroup H (16111T, 16357C, 263G, 315.1C)

Alexei Nikolaevich (Russian: Алексе́й Никола́евич) (12 August 1904 [O.S. 30 July] – 17 July 1918) of the House of Romanov, was the Tsesarevich[note 1] and heir apparent to the throne of the Russian Empire. He was the youngest child and only son of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna. He was born with hemophilia; his mother's reliance on the starets Grigori Rasputin to treat the disease helped bring about the end of the Romanov dynasty. After the February Revolution of 1917, he and his family were sent into internal exile in Tobolsk, Siberia. He was murdered alongside his parents, four sisters, and three retainers during the Russian Civil War by order of the Bolshevik government, though rumors that he had survived persisted until the 2007 discovery of his and one of his sister's remains. The family was formally interred on 17 July 1998—the eightieth anniversary of the murder—and were canonized as passion bearers by the Russian Orthodox Church in 2000.

investigators, historians and surviving members of the Romanov dynasty have anticipated the day when all the murdered royals would be laid to rest.

They thought that moment had finally arrived when a funeral was scheduled last October for two long-lost children — Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria, whose remains were found in nearby woods many years later.

But it was not to be. The Russian Orthodox Church interceded, questioning — not for the first time — whether any of the remains were authentic, and the service was postponed indefinitely. The nearly 100-year saga of murder, mystery and myth lived on.

Amateurs Unravel Russia’s Last Royal MysteryNOV. 25, 2007

“The problem is that from the historical, scientific and genetic point of view, it is absolutely clear that the remains of the czar and his family are authentic,” said Sergei V. Chapnin, who was fired as editor of The Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate in December, partly, he thinks, because he pushed for accepting the remains. “The only statement we hear from the church is, ‘We don’t believe it.’ ”

CreditAgence France-Presse — Getty Images Why the church rejects the evidence assembled thus far, filling some 25 volumes, is one enduring mystery at the center of the case. Senior church officials have never fully explained it; they keep demanding further efforts.

“The church is interested no less than anyone else, and maybe even more than anyone else, to determine the truth in this complicated issue,” Vladimir R. Legoyda, a church spokesman, said at a news conference late last year. “There are questions that still remain and serious ones. So far we just touched the tip of the iceberg.”

In 2000, the church canonized the royal family, upping the ante for authenticating the remains and possibly imposing new funeral rites, in that the relics of saints must be preserved above ground.

“We need to rule out any possibility of a mistake,” Mr. Legoyda said.

At the same news conference, Bishop Tikhon, a shadowy, influential Orthodox figure rumored to be the spiritual guide for President Vladimir V. Putin, cast doubt on the authenticity of the bones by describing various untested theories, as did a historian endorsed by the church.

To take just one of the more outlandish claims, the bishop hinted that the grave of Nicholas’s father, Czar Alexander III, had been vandalized and his bones interred in place of his son.

That theory was quickly disproved. An excavation found Alexander III’s grave had remained undisturbed since his burial in 1894, said Sergei V. Mironenko, the head of the Russian State Archives, which has also been closely involved in the investigation. It was the third time royal bones had been dug up in the course of the investigation.

Nevertheless, Bishop Tikhon suggested on state television in late December that the church investigation was just getting started. “Today we were assured that the scientists will have all the time that they need — let’s say it will be approximately two, three years — but these tests will be carried out professionally and in full,” he said, without specifying what testing or who would be doing it.

The bishop was not available for interviews. Patriarch Kirill, the head of theRussian Orthodox Church, said at a conference of bishops this month that Mr. Putin himself had consented to an open-ended inquiry by the church.

Virtually every expert involved in the case agrees that investigators have pieced together a plausible explanation of what happened to the family, while the church has failed to produce an alternative.

“It is one of the oddest detective stories in Russian history in the last century,” said Ksenia V. Luchenko, a freelance journalist with long experience covering Orthodox Church matters.

Early in the morning of July 17, 1918, the czar, his wife, their five children, as well as their doctor, a cook and two servants, were executed in the basement of a house in Yekaterinburg, in central Russia. The firing squad had the most difficulty killing the czar’s four daughters, because the bullets ricocheted off all the hidden diamonds sewn into their clothing.

In a series of steps that took investigators decades to determine, the executioners first dumped the corpses in a mine, named Ganina Yama in Russian, which had long been thought to be the burial place of their ashes.

The bodies of the 11 victims were actually loaded onto a truck for transport to a deeper mine, however. The vehicle got stuck on a muddy road through a bog. To lighten the load, the bodies of Alexei and Maria were removed and carted off into the forest — burned, doused with acid and buried. The Bolsheviks then decided to inter the rest right there in Old Kaptikovskaya Road.

That main grave was eventually discovered in 1979 by amateur sleuths, and the bodies were finally exhumed in 1991, after the Soviet Union collapsed. The government treated it as a criminal case, assigning it to Vladimir N. Solovyov, at the time a 40-year-old investigator.

It took a year to assemble the skeletons from the jumbled collection of bones, especially since the executioners had tried to disguise the victims by smashing their faces. “The skulls had to be glued together like an antique vase from many small bits,” said Mr. Solovyov, now 65 and still working the case.

In a stroke of luck for the anthropologists doing the work, the czar’s daughters had contracted measles in March 1917 and posed together with shaved heads. The markedly different contours of their skulls were readily visible, speeding identification.

CreditAssociated Press Fragments from the skeletons were shipped to Britain and the United States for DNA testing in government laboratories, Mr. Solovyov said, which confirmed the victims’ identities.

The historical and genetic proof gradually undermined the accumulated myths surrounding the execution, such as the longstanding legend that Grand Duchess Anastasia had somehow escaped. She had not.

In 1998, in St. Petersburg, Nicholas II; his wife, Czarina Alexandra Feodorovna; daughters Olga, Tatiana and Anastasia; and the four retainers killed with them were buried together in St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, where all the czars since Peter the Great lie.

The patriarch at that time, Aleksei II, skipped the funeral at the last minute, rejecting the evidence with no explanation. The Orthodox priests who presided did not refer to the deceased by name, saying, “God knows their identity.”

Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria were to be buried in the same grave. Their bone fragments had been tucked away for years inside two small white boxes the size of FedEx mailers, sealed with crime-scene tape and locked into a vault in the state archives in downtown Moscow.

That would seem to have settled things, but the church took custody of the remains in December, declaring for reasons that remain elusive that the case required further study.

“They follow this mythological idea that the state is trying to convince the church that the remains are real although they are false,” Mr. Chapnin said. “What reason would the state have to do that? Nobody knows! People are just against it and that is it, they are not ready for any discussion.”

The most prevalent explanation is that the hierarchy wants to avoid the decision because either choice would alienate key factions.

Rejecting the bones will anger some Orthodox adherents, particularly those outside Russia. Accepting them will incense a conservative domestic faction that believes the Soviet government somehow faked the burial.

“Either decision will cause a scandal, so they would like to postpone it,” Mr. Chapnin said.

Analysts of church affairs place Patriarch Kirill among the doubters, but his reasons remain opaque. Andrei B. Zubov, a renowned historian, said he knew the prelate well enough to engage him on any matter, but when Mr. Zubov asked about the czar’s remains, he changed the subject.

“It was a political decision, not a spiritual or scientific one,” said Mr. Zubov, adding that after years of opposition, the church could not suddenly reverse itself without losing face.

Still, the idea that the church wants to begin an investigation from scratch provokes exasperation.

“They have all kinds of strange ideas why they are not the right remains,” said Paul E. Kulikovsky, 55, a businessman in Moscow who is a great-great-grandson of Czar Alexander III. “If you investigate all the possibilities, that means you have to go on for 100 years because people have come up with 1,000 possibilities.”

The Canadian-born Mr. Kulikovsky, who publishes a monthly newsletter on Romanov affairs, said the vast majority of about 80 Romanov descendants hope to bury Alexei and Maria this winter, whether or not the church deemed the bones authentic.

Ms. Luchenko, the journalist, noted that in death, the two prime adversaries of the 1917 Revolution, the czar and Lenin, are both stuck in limbo.

There has been an endless debate whether the embalmed body of Lenin should be removed from his tomb in Red Square and buried, while the remains of Nicholas II might be preserved above ground if they are ever recognized as holy relics.

Together, the remains represent the unfinished business of a particularly violent, tumultuous century for Russia. Ms. Luchenko said, “Russia cannot say goodbye to its 20th century.”

investigators, historians and surviving members of the Romanov dynasty have anticipated the day when all the murdered royals would be laid to rest.

They thought that moment had finally arrived when a funeral was scheduled last October for two long-lost children — Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria, whose remains were found in nearby woods many years later.

But it was not to be. The Russian Orthodox Church interceded, questioning — not for the first time — whether any of the remains were authentic, and the service was postponed indefinitely. The nearly 100-year saga of murder, mystery and myth lived on.

Amateurs Unravel Russia’s Last Royal MysteryNOV. 25, 2007

“The problem is that from the historical, scientific and genetic point of view, it is absolutely clear that the remains of the czar and his family are authentic,” said Sergei V. Chapnin, who was fired as editor of The Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate in December, partly, he thinks, because he pushed for accepting the remains. “The only statement we hear from the church is, ‘We don’t believe it.’ ”

CreditAgence France-Presse — Getty Images Why the church rejects the evidence assembled thus far, filling some 25 volumes, is one enduring mystery at the center of the case. Senior church officials have never fully explained it; they keep demanding further efforts.

“The church is interested no less than anyone else, and maybe even more than anyone else, to determine the truth in this complicated issue,” Vladimir R. Legoyda, a church spokesman, said at a news conference late last year. “There are questions that still remain and serious ones. So far we just touched the tip of the iceberg.”

In 2000, the church canonized the royal family, upping the ante for authenticating the remains and possibly imposing new funeral rites, in that the relics of saints must be preserved above ground.

“We need to rule out any possibility of a mistake,” Mr. Legoyda said.

At the same news conference, Bishop Tikhon, a shadowy, influential Orthodox figure rumored to be the spiritual guide for President Vladimir V. Putin, cast doubt on the authenticity of the bones by describing various untested theories, as did a historian endorsed by the church.

To take just one of the more outlandish claims, the bishop hinted that the grave of Nicholas’s father, Czar Alexander III, had been vandalized and his bones interred in place of his son.

That theory was quickly disproved. An excavation found Alexander III’s grave had remained undisturbed since his burial in 1894, said Sergei V. Mironenko, the head of the Russian State Archives, which has also been closely involved in the investigation. It was the third time royal bones had been dug up in the course of the investigation.

Nevertheless, Bishop Tikhon suggested on state television in late December that the church investigation was just getting started. “Today we were assured that the scientists will have all the time that they need — let’s say it will be approximately two, three years — but these tests will be carried out professionally and in full,” he said, without specifying what testing or who would be doing it.

The bishop was not available for interviews. Patriarch Kirill, the head of theRussian Orthodox Church, said at a conference of bishops this month that Mr. Putin himself had consented to an open-ended inquiry by the church.

Virtually every expert involved in the case agrees that investigators have pieced together a plausible explanation of what happened to the family, while the church has failed to produce an alternative.

“It is one of the oddest detective stories in Russian history in the last century,” said Ksenia V. Luchenko, a freelance journalist with long experience covering Orthodox Church matters.

Early in the morning of July 17, 1918, the czar, his wife, their five children, as well as their doctor, a cook and two servants, were executed in the basement of a house in Yekaterinburg, in central Russia. The firing squad had the most difficulty killing the czar’s four daughters, because the bullets ricocheted off all the hidden diamonds sewn into their clothing.

In a series of steps that took investigators decades to determine, the executioners first dumped the corpses in a mine, named Ganina Yama in Russian, which had long been thought to be the burial place of their ashes.

The bodies of the 11 victims were actually loaded onto a truck for transport to a deeper mine, however. The vehicle got stuck on a muddy road through a bog. To lighten the load, the bodies of Alexei and Maria were removed and carted off into the forest — burned, doused with acid and buried. The Bolsheviks then decided to inter the rest right there in Old Kaptikovskaya Road.

That main grave was eventually discovered in 1979 by amateur sleuths, and the bodies were finally exhumed in 1991, after the Soviet Union collapsed. The government treated it as a criminal case, assigning it to Vladimir N. Solovyov, at the time a 40-year-old investigator.

It took a year to assemble the skeletons from the jumbled collection of bones, especially since the executioners had tried to disguise the victims by smashing their faces. “The skulls had to be glued together like an antique vase from many small bits,” said Mr. Solovyov, now 65 and still working the case.

In a stroke of luck for the anthropologists doing the work, the czar’s daughters had contracted measles in March 1917 and posed together with shaved heads. The markedly different contours of their skulls were readily visible, speeding identification.

CreditAssociated Press Fragments from the skeletons were shipped to Britain and the United States for DNA testing in government laboratories, Mr. Solovyov said, which confirmed the victims’ identities.

The historical and genetic proof gradually undermined the accumulated myths surrounding the execution, such as the longstanding legend that Grand Duchess Anastasia had somehow escaped. She had not.

In 1998, in St. Petersburg, Nicholas II; his wife, Czarina Alexandra Feodorovna; daughters Olga, Tatiana and Anastasia; and the four retainers killed with them were buried together in St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, where all the czars since Peter the Great lie.

The patriarch at that time, Aleksei II, skipped the funeral at the last minute, rejecting the evidence with no explanation. The Orthodox priests who presided did not refer to the deceased by name, saying, “God knows their identity.”

Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria were to be buried in the same grave. Their bone fragments had been tucked away for years inside two small white boxes the size of FedEx mailers, sealed with crime-scene tape and locked into a vault in the state archives in downtown Moscow.

That would seem to have settled things, but the church took custody of the remains in December, declaring for reasons that remain elusive that the case required further study.

“They follow this mythological idea that the state is trying to convince the church that the remains are real although they are false,” Mr. Chapnin said. “What reason would the state have to do that? Nobody knows! People are just against it and that is it, they are not ready for any discussion.”

The most prevalent explanation is that the hierarchy wants to avoid the decision because either choice would alienate key factions.

Rejecting the bones will anger some Orthodox adherents, particularly those outside Russia. Accepting them will incense a conservative domestic faction that believes the Soviet government somehow faked the burial.

“Either decision will cause a scandal, so they would like to postpone it,” Mr. Chapnin said.

Analysts of church affairs place Patriarch Kirill among the doubters, but his reasons remain opaque. Andrei B. Zubov, a renowned historian, said he knew the prelate well enough to engage him on any matter, but when Mr. Zubov asked about the czar’s remains, he changed the subject.

“It was a political decision, not a spiritual or scientific one,” said Mr. Zubov, adding that after years of opposition, the church could not suddenly reverse itself without losing face.

Still, the idea that the church wants to begin an investigation from scratch provokes exasperation.

“They have all kinds of strange ideas why they are not the right remains,” said Paul E. Kulikovsky, 55, a businessman in Moscow who is a great-great-grandson of Czar Alexander III. “If you investigate all the possibilities, that means you have to go on for 100 years because people have come up with 1,000 possibilities.”

The Canadian-born Mr. Kulikovsky, who publishes a monthly newsletter on Romanov affairs, said the vast majority of about 80 Romanov descendants hope to bury Alexei and Maria this winter, whether or not the church deemed the bones authentic.

Ms. Luchenko, the journalist, noted that in death, the two prime adversaries of the 1917 Revolution, the czar and Lenin, are both stuck in limbo.

There has been an endless debate whether the embalmed body of Lenin should be removed from his tomb in Red Square and buried, while the remains of Nicholas II might be preserved above ground if they are ever recognized as holy relics.

Together, the remains represent the unfinished business of a particularly violent, tumultuous century for Russia. Ms. Luchenko said, “Russia cannot say goodbye to its 20th century.”

Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria were to be buried in the same grave. Their bone fragments had been tucked away for years inside two small white boxes the size of FedEx mailers, sealed with crime-scene tape and locked into a vault in the state archives in downtown Moscow.

That would seem to have settled things, but the church took custody of the remains in December, declaring for reasons that remain elusive that the case required further study.

“They follow this mythological idea that the state is trying to convince the church that the remains are real although they are false,” Mr. Chapnin said. “What reason would the state have to do that? Nobody knows! People are just against it and that is it, they are not ready for any discussion.”

The most prevalent explanation is that the hierarchy wants to avoid the decision because either choice would alienate key factions.

Rejecting the bones will anger some Orthodox adherents, particularly those outside Russia. Accepting them will incense a conservative domestic faction that believes the Soviet government somehow faked the burial.

“Either decision will cause a scandal, so they would like to postpone it,” Mr. Chapnin said.

Analysts of church affairs place Patriarch Kirill among the doubters, but his reasons remain opaque. Andrei B. Zubov, a renowned historian, said he knew the prelate well enough to engage him on any matter, but when Mr. Zubov asked about the czar’s remains, he changed the subject.

“It was a political decision, not a spiritual or scientific one,” said Mr. Zubov, adding that after years of opposition, the church could not suddenly reverse itself without losing face.

Still, the idea that the church wants to begin an investigation from scratch provokes exasperation.

“They have all kinds of strange ideas why they are not the right remains,” said Paul E. Kulikovsky, 55, a businessman in Moscow who is a great-great-grandson of Czar Alexander III. “If you investigate all the possibilities, that means you have to go on for 100 years because people have come up with 1,000 possibilities.”

The Canadian-born Mr. Kulikovsky, who publishes a monthly newsletter on Romanov affairs, said the vast majority of about 80 Romanov descendants hope to bury Alexei and Maria this winter, whether or not the church deemed the bones authentic.

Ms. Luchenko, the journalist, noted that in death, the two prime adversaries of the 1917 Revolution, the czar and Lenin, are both stuck in limbo.

There has been an endless debate whether the embalmed body of Lenin should be removed from his tomb in Red Square and buried, while the remains of Nicholas II might be preserved above ground if they are ever recognized as holy relics.

Together, the remains represent the unfinished business of a particularly violent, tumultuous century for Russia. Ms. Luchenko said, “Russia cannot say goodbye to its 20th century.”

investigators, historians and surviving members of the Romanov dynasty have anticipated the day when all the murdered royals would be laid to rest. They thought that moment had finally arrived when a funeral was scheduled last October for two long-lost children — Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria, whose remains were found in nearby woods many years later.

But it was not to be. The Russian Orthodox Church interceded, questioning — not for the first time — whether any of the remains were authentic, and the service was postponed indefinitely. The nearly 100-year saga of murder, mystery and myth lived on.

Amateurs Unravel Russia’s Last Royal MysteryNOV. 25, 2007

“The problem is that from the historical, scientific and genetic point of view, it is absolutely clear that the remains of the czar and his family are authentic,” said Sergei V. Chapnin, who was fired as editor of The Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate in December, partly, he thinks, because he pushed for accepting the remains. “The only statement we hear from the church is, ‘We don’t believe it.’ ”

CreditAgence France-Presse — Getty Images Why the church rejects the evidence assembled thus far, filling some 25 volumes, is one enduring mystery at the center of the case. Senior church officials have never fully explained it; they keep demanding further efforts.

“The church is interested no less than anyone else, and maybe even more than anyone else, to determine the truth in this complicated issue,” Vladimir R. Legoyda, a church spokesman, said at a news conference late last year. “There are questions that still remain and serious ones. So far we just touched the tip of the iceberg.”

In 2000, the church canonized the royal family, upping the ante for authenticating the remains and possibly imposing new funeral rites, in that the relics of saints must be preserved above ground.

“We need to rule out any possibility of a mistake,” Mr. Legoyda said.

At the same news conference, Bishop Tikhon, a shadowy, influential Orthodox figure rumored to be the spiritual guide for President Vladimir V. Putin, cast doubt on the authenticity of the bones by describing various untested theories, as did a historian endorsed by the church.

To take just one of the more outlandish claims, the bishop hinted that the grave of Nicholas’s father, Czar Alexander III, had been vandalized and his bones interred in place of his son.

That theory was quickly disproved. An excavation found Alexander III’s grave had remained undisturbed since his burial in 1894, said Sergei V. Mironenko, the head of the Russian State Archives, which has also been closely involved in the investigation. It was the third time royal bones had been dug up in the course of the investigation.

Nevertheless, Bishop Tikhon suggested on state television in late December that the church investigation was just getting started. “Today we were assured that the scientists will have all the time that they need — let’s say it will be approximately two, three years — but these tests will be carried out professionally and in full,” he said, without specifying what testing or who would be doing it.

The bishop was not available for interviews. Patriarch Kirill, the head of theRussian Orthodox Church, said at a conference of bishops this month that Mr. Putin himself had consented to an open-ended inquiry by the church.

Virtually every expert involved in the case agrees that investigators have pieced together a plausible explanation of what happened to the family, while the church has failed to produce an alternative.

“It is one of the oddest detective stories in Russian history in the last century,” said Ksenia V. Luchenko, a freelance journalist with long experience covering Orthodox Church matters.

Early in the morning of July 17, 1918, the czar, his wife, their five children, as well as their doctor, a cook and two servants, were executed in the basement of a house in Yekaterinburg, in central Russia. The firing squad had the most difficulty killing the czar’s four daughters, because the bullets ricocheted off all the hidden diamonds sewn into their clothing.

In a series of steps that took investigators decades to determine, the executioners first dumped the corpses in a mine, named Ganina Yama in Russian, which had long been thought to be the burial place of their ashes.

The bodies of the 11 victims were actually loaded onto a truck for transport to a deeper mine, however. The vehicle got stuck on a muddy road through a bog. To lighten the load, the bodies of Alexei and Maria were removed and carted off into the forest — burned, doused with acid and buried. The Bolsheviks then decided to inter the rest right there in Old Kaptikovskaya Road.

That main grave was eventually discovered in 1979 by amateur sleuths, and the bodies were finally exhumed in 1991, after the Soviet Union collapsed. The government treated it as a criminal case, assigning it to Vladimir N. Solovyov, at the time a 40-year-old investigator.

It took a year to assemble the skeletons from the jumbled collection of bones, especially since the executioners had tried to disguise the victims by smashing their faces. “The skulls had to be glued together like an antique vase from many small bits,” said Mr. Solovyov, now 65 and still working the case.

In a stroke of luck for the anthropologists doing the work, the czar’s daughters had contracted measles in March 1917 and posed together with shaved heads. The markedly different contours of their skulls were readily visible, speeding identification.

CreditAssociated Press Fragments from the skeletons were shipped to Britain and the United States for DNA testing in government laboratories, Mr. Solovyov said, which confirmed the victims’ identities.

The historical and genetic proof gradually undermined the accumulated myths surrounding the execution, such as the longstanding legend that Grand Duchess Anastasia had somehow escaped. She had not.

In 1998, in St. Petersburg, Nicholas II; his wife, Czarina Alexandra Feodorovna; daughters Olga, Tatiana and Anastasia; and the four retainers killed with them were buried together in St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, where all the czars since Peter the Great lie.

investigators, historians and surviving members of the Romanov dynasty have anticipated the day when all the murdered royals would be laid to rest.

They thought that moment had finally arrived when a funeral was scheduled last October for two long-lost children — Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria, whose remains were found in nearby woods many years later.

But it was not to be. The Russian Orthodox Church interceded, questioning — not for the first time — whether any of the remains were authentic, and the service was postponed indefinitely. The nearly 100-year saga of murder, mystery and myth lived on.

Amateurs Unravel Russia’s Last Royal MysteryNOV. 25, 2007

“The problem is that from the historical, scientific and genetic point of view, it is absolutely clear that the remains of the czar and his family are authentic,” said Sergei V. Chapnin, who was fired as editor of The Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate in December, partly, he thinks, because he pushed for accepting the remains. “The only statement we hear from the church is, ‘We don’t believe it.’ ”

CreditAgence France-Presse — Getty Images Why the church rejects the evidence assembled thus far, filling some 25 volumes, is one enduring mystery at the center of the case. Senior church officials have never fully explained it; they keep demanding further efforts.

“The church is interested no less than anyone else, and maybe even more than anyone else, to determine the truth in this complicated issue,” Vladimir R. Legoyda, a church spokesman, said at a news conference late last year. “There are questions that still remain and serious ones. So far we just touched the tip of the iceberg.”

In 2000, the church canonized the royal family, upping the ante for authenticating the remains and possibly imposing new funeral rites, in that the relics of saints must be preserved above ground.

“We need to rule out any possibility of a mistake,” Mr. Legoyda said.

At the same news conference, Bishop Tikhon, a shadowy, influential Orthodox figure rumored to be the spiritual guide for President Vladimir V. Putin, cast doubt on the authenticity of the bones by describing various untested theories, as did a historian endorsed by the church.

To take just one of the more outlandish claims, the bishop hinted that the grave of Nicholas’s father, Czar Alexander III, had been vandalized and his bones interred in place of his son.

That theory was quickly disproved. An excavation found Alexander III’s grave had remained undisturbed since his burial in 1894, said Sergei V. Mironenko, the head of the Russian State Archives, which has also been closely involved in the investigation. It was the third time royal bones had been dug up in the course of the investigation.

Nevertheless, Bishop Tikhon suggested on state television in late December that the church investigation was just getting started. “Today we were assured that the scientists will have all the time that they need — let’s say it will be approximately two, three years — but these tests will be carried out professionally and in full,” he said, without specifying what testing or who would be doing it.

The bishop was not available for interviews. Patriarch Kirill, the head of theRussian Orthodox Church, said at a conference of bishops this month that Mr. Putin himself had consented to an open-ended inquiry by the church.

Virtually every expert involved in the case agrees that investigators have pieced together a plausible explanation of what happened to the family, while the church has failed to produce an alternative.

“It is one of the oddest detective stories in Russian history in the last century,” said Ksenia V. Luchenko, a freelance journalist with long experience covering Orthodox Church matters.

Early in the morning of July 17, 1918, the czar, his wife, their five children, as well as their doctor, a cook and two servants, were executed in the basement of a house in Yekaterinburg, in central Russia. The firing squad had the most difficulty killing the czar’s four daughters, because the bullets ricocheted off all the hidden diamonds sewn into their clothing.

In a series of steps that took investigators decades to determine, the executioners first dumped the corpses in a mine, named Ganina Yama in Russian, which had long been thought to be the burial place of their ashes.

The bodies of the 11 victims were actually loaded onto a truck for transport to a deeper mine, however. The vehicle got stuck on a muddy road through a bog. To lighten the load, the bodies of Alexei and Maria were removed and carted off into the forest — burned, doused with acid and buried. The Bolsheviks then decided to inter the rest right there in Old Kaptikovskaya Road.

That main grave was eventually discovered in 1979 by amateur sleuths, and the bodies were finally exhumed in 1991, after the Soviet Union collapsed. The government treated it as a criminal case, assigning it to Vladimir N. Solovyov, at the time a 40-year-old investigator.

It took a year to assemble the skeletons from the jumbled collection of bones, especially since the executioners had tried to disguise the victims by smashing their faces. “The skulls had to be glued together like an antique vase from many small bits,” said Mr. Solovyov, now 65 and still working the case.

In a stroke of luck for the anthropologists doing the work, the czar’s daughters had contracted measles in March 1917 and posed together with shaved heads. The markedly different contours of their skulls were readily visible, speeding identification.

CreditAssociated Press Fragments from the skeletons were shipped to Britain and the United States for DNA testing in government laboratories, Mr. Solovyov said, which confirmed the victims’ identities.

The historical and genetic proof gradually undermined the accumulated myths surrounding the execution, such as the longstanding legend that Grand Duchess Anastasia had somehow escaped. She had not.

In 1998, in St. Petersburg, Nicholas II; his wife, Czarina Alexandra Feodorovna; daughters Olga, Tatiana and Anastasia; and the four retainers killed with them were buried together in St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, where all the czars since Peter the Great lie.

The patriarch at that time, Aleksei II, skipped the funeral at the last minute, rejecting the evidence with no explanation. The Orthodox priests who presided did not refer to the deceased by name, saying, “God knows their identity.”

Czarevitch Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria were to be buried in the same grave. Their bone fragments had been tucked away for years inside two small white boxes the size of FedEx mailers, sealed with crime-scene tape and locked into a vault in the state archives in downtown Moscow.

That would seem to have settled things, but the church took custody of the remains in December, declaring for reasons that remain elusive that the case required further study.

“They follow this mythological idea that the state is trying to convince the church that the remains are real although they are false,” Mr. Chapnin said. “What reason would the state have to do that? Nobody knows! People are just against it and that is it, they are not ready for any discussion.”

The most prevalent explanation is that the hierarchy wants to avoid the decision because either choice would alienate key factions.

Rejecting the bones will anger some Orthodox adherents, particularly those outside Russia. Accepting them will incense a conservative domestic faction that believes the Soviet government somehow faked the burial.

“Either decision will cause a scandal, so they would like to postpone it,” Mr. Chapnin said.

Analysts of church affairs place Patriarch Kirill among the doubters, but his reasons remain opaque. Andrei B. Zubov, a renowned historian, said he knew the prelate well enough to engage him on any matter, but when Mr. Zubov asked about the czar’s remains, he changed the subject.

“It was a political decision, not a spiritual or scientific one,” said Mr. Zubov, adding that after years of opposition, the church could not suddenly reverse itself without losing face.

Still, the idea that the church wants to begin an investigation from scratch provokes exasperation.

“They have all kinds of strange ideas why they are not the right remains,” said Paul E. Kulikovsky, 55, a businessman in Moscow who is a great-great-grandson of Czar Alexander III. “If you investigate all the possibilities, that means you have to go on for 100 years because people have come up with 1,000 possibilities.”

The Canadian-born Mr. Kulikovsky, who publishes a monthly newsletter on Romanov affairs, said the vast majority of about 80 Romanov descendants hope to bury Alexei and Maria this winter, whether or not the church deemed the bones authentic.

Ms. Luchenko, the journalist, noted that in death, the two prime adversaries of the 1917 Revolution, the czar and Lenin, are both stuck in limbo.

There has been an endless debate whether the embalmed body of Lenin should be removed from his tomb in Red Square and buried, while the remains of Nicholas II might be preserved above ground if they are ever recognized as holy relics.

Together, the remains represent the unfinished business of a particularly violent, tumultuous century for Russia. Ms. Luchenko said, “Russia cannot say goodbye to its 20th century.”

Рождение

Из телеграммы Барона Фредрикса

Петербург 30 июля. Её Величество Государыня Императрица Александра Федоровна благополучно разрешилась от бремени Сыном, наследником-Цесаревичем и Великим Князем, нареченным при святой молитве Алексеем, 30 июля сего года, в 1 час 15 мин. пополудни в Петергофе. Подписал: Министр Императорского Двора генерал-адъютант барон Фредерикс..[7]. Был долгожданным ребёнком: у Александры Фёдоровны одна за другой родились в 1895—1901 годы четыре дочери. Царская чета побывала на прославлении Серафима Саровского 18 июля 1903 года в Сарове, где император и императрица молились о даровании им наследника.

При рождении был наречён Алексеем — в честь святителя Алексия Московского[8]. Крещён в церкви Большого Петергофского дворца 11 августа 1904 года духовником императорской семьи протопресвитером Иоанном Янышевым; его восприемниками были: Императрица Мария Феодоровна, Император Германский Король Прусский, Король Великобританский и Ирландский, Король Датский, Великий Герцог Гессенский, Принцесса Виктория Великобританская, Великий Князь Алексей Александрович, Великая Княгиня Александра Иосифовна, Великий Князь Михаил Николаевич[9].

Болезнь[

%D0%9F%D0%BE линии матери Алексей унаследовал гемофилию, носительницами которой были некоторые дочери и внучки английской королевы Виктории. Гемофилию своим потомкам передали вторая дочь королевы — принцесса Алиса (1843—1878), в замужестве Великая герцогиня Гессенская и Прирейнская и младшая дочь — Беатриса (1857—1944), в замужестве герцогиня Баттенбергская. Дочь принцессы Беатрисы — королева Испанская Виктория-Евгения (1887—1969) передала гемофилию своим сыновьям принцам Альфонсо (1907—1938) и Гонсало (1914—1934). Сестра императрицы Александры Федоровны, тётя цесаревича — принцесса Ирэна (1866—1953), в замужестве принцесса Прусская, передала гемофилию своим двум сыновьям — принцам Вальдемару (1889—1945) и Генриху (1900—1904), что послужило причиной смерти принца в возрасте четырёх лет[10].

Заболевание гемофилией стало очевидным у цесаревича уже в сентябре 1904 года, когда у младенца, не достигшего ещё двухмесячного возраста, началось тяжёлое кровотечение из пупка. Болезнь у наследника проявлялась в том, что каждый ушиб, в результате которого происходил разрыв какого-нибудь, даже самого крошечного внутреннего кровеносного сосуда (что у обычного человека закончилось бы заурядным синяком), вызывал внутреннее, не останавливающееся кровотечение. Медленно, но безостановочно, кровь проникала в окружающие мышцы и другие ткани, образовывалась гематома величиной с большое яблоко, кожа утрачивала эластичность и не могла больше растягиваться, давление замедляло кровообращение, в результате чего начиналось образование тромба. После этого гематома постепенно рассасывалась и тёмно-багровый синяк превращался в пятнистый желтовато-зелёный. Незначительные внешние порезы или царапины на любом месте поверхности тела не представляли опасности — они сразу же затягивались, а потом на них накладывали тугую повязку, которая сдавливала кровеносный сосуд и давала возможность повреждению постепенно заживать. Исключением были кровотечения изо рта или носа, так как в таких местах невозможно было наложить повязку на источник кровотечения. Однажды царевич чуть не умер от носового кровотечения, хотя не испытывал при этом никакой боли[11].

Болезнь постоянно вызывала кровоизлияния в суставах — они причиняли Алексею нестерпимую боль и превращали в инвалида. Кровь, скапливаясь в замкнутом пространстве сустава локтя, колена или лодыжки, вызывала давление на нерв, и начинались сильные боли. Попавшая в сустав кровь разрушала кости, сухожилия и ткани. Конечности застывали в согнутом положении. Иногда причина кровоизлияния была известна, иногда нет. Бывало, цесаревич просто объявлял: «Мама, я сегодня не могу ходить», или: «Мама, я сегодня не могу согнуть локоть». Лучшим средством, выводящим из такого состояния, были постоянные упражнения и массаж, но при этом всегда была опасность, что снова начнётся кровотечение. Для снятия болевых симптомов можно было бы применить морфий, но из-за его разрушительных свойств наследнику его не давали и он переставал чувствовать боль, только когда терял сознание. Каждый случай болезни означал недели постельного режима, а лечение включало целый перечень тяжёлых железных ортопедических приспособлений, которые были сконструированы для выпрямления его конечностей, и горячие грязевые ванны[11].

Осенью 1912 года во время традиционного пребывания царской семьи в охотничьем угодье Спала в Восточной Польше цесаревич неудачно прыгнул в лодку и сильно ушиб внутреннюю сторону бедра в области паха: возникшая гематома долго не рассасывалась, состояние здоровья ребёнка было очень тяжёлым, была реальная угроза смерти. В эти дни впервые и единственный раз о тяжёлом состоянии наследника был издан правительственный бюллетень. В нём, впрочем, болезнь цесаревича не была названа[11].

«Несчастный маленький страдал ужасно, — писал Николай своей матери, — боли схватывали его спазмами и повторялись почти каждые четверть часа. От высокой температуры он бредил и днем и ночью, садился в постели, а от движения тотчас же начиналась боль. Спать он почти не мог, плакать тоже, только стонал и говорил: „Господи, помилуй“».

Из-за повторных кровоизлияний в суставы наследник часто не мог ходить, и во всех необходимых случаях его носил на руках специально выделенный «дядька» — кондукто́р Гвардейского экипажа А. Е. Деревенько[11].

Последнее обострение болезни наступило во время ссылки царской семьи в Тобольске в начале 1918 года. Т. Мельник так описала начало болезни: «вдруг слёг Алексей Николаевич. Это было для всех большое несчастье, так как он опять очень страдал, у него появилось то же внутреннее кровоизлияние от ушиба, уже так измучившее его в Спале. Страшно живой и весёлый, он постоянно прыгал, скакал и устраивал очень бурные игры. Одна из них — катанье вниз по ступенькам лестницы в деревянной лодке на полозьях, другая — какие-то импровизированные качели из бревна. Не знаю, во время которой из них, но Алексей Николаевич ушибся и опять слёг». Нормально передвигаться он так и не начал до самой своей смерти[11].

Характер и внешность[%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%82%D1%8C | править вики-текст] Внешность Алексея сочетала в себе лучшее от отца и матери. По воспоминаниям современников, Алексей был красивым мальчиком, с чистым, открытым лицом. Он был слишком худым — сказывалась болезнь.

Характер у мальчика был покладистый, он обожал родителей и сестер, а те, в свою очередь, души не чаяли в юном цесаревиче, особенно Великая Княжна Мария. Алексей был способным в учёбе, как и сёстры, делал успехи в изучении языков.

Наследник Цесаревич Алексей Николаевич был мальчик 14 лет, умный, наблюдательный, восприимчивый, ласковый, жизнерадостный. Был с ленцой и не особенно любил книги. Он совмещал в себе черты отца и матери: унаследовал простоту отца, был чужд надменности, заносчивости, но имел свою волю и подчинялся только отцу. Мать хотела, но не могла быть с ним строгой. Его учительница Битнер говорит о нём: «Он имел большую волю и никогда не подчинился бы никакой женщине». Он был весьма дисциплинирован, замкнут и очень терпелив. Несомненно, болезнь наложила на него свой отпечаток и выработала в нём эти черты. Он не любил придворного этикета, любил быть с солдатами и учился их языку, употребляя в своем дневнике чисто народные, подслушанные им выражения. Скуповатостью напоминал мать: не любил тратить своих денег и собирал разные брошенные вещи: гвозди, свинцовую бумагу, веревки и т. п.

Дети Александры Федоровны и Николая II в Царском селе. Май 1917 года. Наследник очень любил всё связанное с русской армией. Любимой пищей Царевича были «щи да каша и чёрный хлеб, который едят все мои солдаты», как он всегда говорил. Ему каждый день приносили пробу щей и каши из солдатской кухни Сводного полка; Алексей все съедал и ещё облизывал ложку, говоря: «Вот это вкусно, не то что наш обед».

Первое посещение Москвы

В конце мая 1912 года, вместе со своими родителями, впервые посетил Москву — в связи с открытием памятника его деду императору Александру III (разрушен в 1918 году)[12]. 30 мая 1912 года в Кремле, у Собственного подъезда Его Величества, при поднесении Наследнику специально написанной Владимирской иконы Богоматери, московский губернский предводитель дворянства А. Д. Самарин обратился к нему с речью: «Благоверный Государь Наследник. Сердечно радуется московское дворянство, видя Тебя в стенах древнего Кремля. Ты в первый раз посещаешь нашу первопрестольную столицу <…>»[13]

Война

Во время Первой мировой войны Алексей, бывший по должности наследника шефом нескольких полков и атаманом всех казачьих войск, с отцом посещал действующую армию, награждал отличившихся бойцов и т. п. Был награждён серебряной Георгиевской медалью 4-й степени.

2 (15) марта 1917 года Николай II отрёкся от престола не только за себя, но и за сына; «не желая расставаться с любимым сыном Нашим», он передал престол младшему брату, Михаилу Александровичу. Это решение было принято после консультации с лейб-хирургом профессором Сергеем Петровичем Фёдоровым, заявившим императору, что хотя с гемофилией можно прожить и долго, но жизнь престолонаследника зависит от любой нелепой случайности.

Гибель

Расстрелян на руках у отца вместе с родителями и сёстрами в Екатеринбурге, в Ипатьевском доме в ночь с 16 на 17 июля 1918 года.

Согласно показанию Медведева, одного из участников расстрела, для того чтобы убить цесаревича, потребовалось несколько выстрелов.[14



Это очень важный детайль.И даже канцелария Императорского Дворца, Русского Провославного церковья имееються сомнения об версий об сообщений провителстваРФ. что вся царьского семья погибла.Это офичальное сообщение от Императовского Дворца и Русского Провославного Церковья.
