ナポレオンの死因
A new study combining current medical knowledge, autopsy(検死)reports, physician memoirs, eyewitness accounts(証言), and family medical histories found that Napoleon Bonaparte died from an advanced case of gastric(胃の)cancer. An 1821 autopsy also determined that stomach cancer was the cause of death, but in 1961, arsenic(ヒ素)found in the ruler's hair sparked(引き起こす)rumors(噂)of poisoning. Napoleon died at age 52 while in exile(追放)on St. Helena, where he was banished after his defeat at Waterloo.
