THE SEARCH FOR NICHOLAS AND ALEXANDRA:THE ROMANOV INVESTIGATION
This lecture explores the tragic fate of the last Russian Tsar, Nicholas II, his family, and their retainers. Following their arrest in 1917, they were ultimately executed in Ekaterinburg in 1918. This brutal event remained shrouded in secrecy for decades until the discovery of skeletal remains near the city in 1992. This course delves into the complex identification process, where dental evidence played a crucial role. However, disagreements arose between Russian and American scientists regarding the identities of the two daughters, highlighting the limitations of skeletal analysis. The discovery of additional remains in 2007 offered further clues, but the mystery surround-ing one daughter’s identity persists due to the absence of the Court Dentist’s records. Through compelling visuals and analysis, the lecture explores the ongoing efforts to definitively identify all members of the Romanov family, showcasing the challenges and complexities of historical forensics.
