  2. The Primary Chronicle records that a wife Olga was brought to Igor from Pskov in 903. However that date is clearly inconsistent with the suggested birth date of their son Sviatoslav which was in 935/40

Hi, his date of marriage is after he died. One of these dates needs to be corrected.

PLEASE reverse the merge from Ingwar-1 into Kiev-27. As I am concerned the language is going from English into Cyrillic. How is that going to work? Thank you for your consideration, Renee Malloy-116

Of Kiev-54 and Kiev-27 appear to represent the same person because: Same person. Please review and merge if you agree. If you disagree, please reject the match. Thank you.
