So, based on the above considerations, we believe that Oleg’s Tomb was not on the northern, but on the western side of Kyiv; not against the Dnipro, but against the river. Lybedi; not on Shchekovitskaya Mountain, but on the western slope of the Starokiev Hill, near the Zhidovsky Gate, which was later called Lvovsky, i.e. not far from Sennaya Square, near the Sorrowful Church. Between this square and the river. Lybedyo cannot imagine any other grave than the one on which the University Observatory is now located. Without a doubt, this is the grave on which the prophetic Oleg was buried. The contradiction in the chronicle about the location of Oleg’s Grave cannot be explained by anything other than the fact that our chronicle is a chronicle collection compiled from different entries and that the mention of Oleg’s burial on Mount Shchevovitsa is a later addition by a person misled by the princes’ meeting at Oleg’s Grave in Bologna.
In conclusion, I will say that at present the name of Oleg’s Tomb is completely unknown among the Kyiv people. The legend about her is completely lost.

One of the oldest monasteries in Kyiv, contemporary with the Kyiv-Pechersk Monastery, was the monastery of St. Demetrius, founded led. ext. Izyaslav-Dmitry in honor of his angel. Izyaslav, building a monastery with a church in the name of the saint, whose name was given to him at baptism, followed in this case the example of his father Yaroslav-George, who built in Kyiv in front of the gates of St. Sofia Monastery of St. George. Izyaslav’s example was, in turn, imitated by the great princes who followed him: Vsevolod-Andrey, who built the St. Andrew’s Monastery in Kyiv; Svyatopolk-Mikhail, who created the Golden-Domed-Mikhailovsky Church, and Mstislav-Theodore, who founded the Feodorovsky Monastery, known in the chronicle under the name Votchogo or Otnyalo.
Envious of the emerging glory of the Pechersk Monastery, Izyaslav Yaroslavich transferred from it to his Dmitrievsky Monastery the first abbot of the Pechersk Monastery, Varlaam, the son of one of his boyars. With this move, as the chronicler noted, he thought to diminish the glory of Pechersk and elevate the importance of his monastery in the eyes of the people. But the Pechersky Monastery was famous not only for Varlaam, and suffered little from his displacement. The second abbot of the Dmitrievsky monastery was Isaiah, one of the tonsures of the same Pechersk monastery, who was also elected to this position. ext. Izyaslav. Izyaslav did not spare gold and gold for his monastery

In the Dmitrievsky Monastery, at its very foundation, as mentioned above, there was already a church in the name of St. Dimitri. Our chronicle does not indicate the time, nor the foundation, nor the consecration of this church. In the same father's monastery, Izya Slava's eldest son, Yaropolk, after the death of his father, founded another church in the name of St. Peter, where, not yet completed, he was buried in 1086. About the burial of Yaropolk Izyaslavich, who died at the hands of a murderer on the way to Kyiv, the chronicler says this: he escorted (the deceased prince) to St. Dmitry, having hidden the body with honor, will lay it in a raz and marble it in the church of St. Peter, which he himself began to build. 40 years after this event, with the church of St. Something extraordinary happened to Peter. In 1128, according to the Laurentian Chronicle, “the Pecheryans (that is, the monks of the Pechersk Monastery) rebuilt the church of St. Demetrius and denounced St. Peter with great sin and untruth.”
