Maybe so, say Soviet scien- tists who have found an ab- normal amount of mercury in the disinterred remains of his body. But maybe the merciiry was not the cause of death, or he was accidentally killed by it, they add. Death in the Kremlin by poison was far from unknown in those days. Some historians believe Ivan's mother was poisoned in 1538 while she was serving as regent for the eight-year- old boy, Ivan himself believed his first wife was poisoned in 1560 and terrible was the ven- geance he took, historians re- late. After that, he appeared to lose emotional balance and historians speak of him as a pathological case until his death in 1584. REMAINS UNCOVERED , "The remains of the czar who ruled as Ivan IV was un- covered in the Kremlin re- cently. Mikhail Gerasimov, a sculptor with medical know- tedge, now is reeonstructing Ivan's face on the basis of clues given by the skull. An article in the weekly magaine Ogonyok discussing this work said chemical anai- ysis showed Ivan's body had an abnormal amount of mer- cury in it. He might have been treated with mercury ointment, com- mon in 16th-century medical practice, the article sug- gested. But such an unex- pected supposition he was killed by poison cannot be ruled out, it added. Poisoning might not have been intentional, the article said. "It is quite believable that a container with mer- cury was left open in the rooms where he lived. In those times they could not know about the deadly ac- "Mtions of evaporating mer- ry." 'Further analysis is being made in an effort to solve the mystery. UK.
