Matvei Golovinski

Matvei Vasilyevich Golovinski (alternatively, Mathieu) (Russian: Матвей Васильевич Головинский) (6 March 1865 – 1920) was a Russian-French writer, journalist and political activist. He is a leading suspected writer of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion a work of black propaganda to convince the public they were being targeted by International Jewry. Scholars supporting Golovinski's authorship include modern Russian historian Mikhail Lepekhine, who in 1999 studied previously closed French archives stored in Moscow containing information supporting the claim. Golovinski was a colleage of Pyotr Rachkovsky, who was similarly linked to the Protocols in the Berne Trial.
