Pavlo Holovaty
Pavlo Andriyovych Holovaty ( ua, Павло Андрійович Головатий; 1715–1795) was a Ukrainian military figure, a Kosh Otoman of the Zaporozhian Sich and last military judge of the Zaporozhian Cossack Host. He is often confused with his younger brother, the leader of the Zaporozahian Host's successor the Black Sea Cossack Host Antin Holovaty. Biography Pavlo Holovaty was born in Kiev and educated together with his younger brother at the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy. With the destruction of the Zaporozhian Sich in 1775, many of the more senior Cossacks were repressed by the Russian government. Pavlo was one of those arrested with the last Zaporozhian koshovy Petro Kalnyshevsky. Both Holovaty and Kalnyshevsky spent a year incarcerated in Moscow, and were given death sentences which were later commuted to lifetime incarceration. He was sent to Toblosk and incarcerated at the Znamensky monastery until his death.Encyclopedia of the Ukrainian Cossacks - Kyiv, 2006, p. ...

History Of The Cossacks
The history of the Cossacks spans several centuries. Early history Several theories speculate about the origins of the Cossacks. According to one theory, Cossacks have Slavic origins, while another theory states that the Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk of 1710 attests to Khazar origins. Modern scholars believe that Cossacks have both Slavic and Turkic origins. The Academician Ivan Zabelin mentioned that peoples of the prairies and of the woods had always needed "a live frontier", and even ancient Borisphenites (Dniepr Scythians) and Tanaites could be the predecessors of Cossacks, not only the Khazars, who assimilated/included Severians, Goths, Scythians and other ancient inhabitants, as insisted by Cossack folklore, by the Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk, and by numerous Cossack historians. Because of the need of both the Reds and the anti-Bolshevik forces to deny any separate Cossack ethnicity, the traditional post-imperial historiography dates the emergence of Cossacks to the ...
