Skull Of King Richard III Discovered under a car park by FXKing2012(m): 5:45pm On Feb 04, 2013 |
Scientists today revealed that a skeleton discovered under a car park in Leicester is that of King Richard III. Researchers sensationally discovered a skull under the social services car park in September while hunting for the former king's final resting place. They had previously said there was 'strong circumstantial evidence' to suggest the bones are those of the 15th-century monarch, but experts were finally able to disclose the results of much-anticipated tests on the remains today. The skeleton had a metal arrowhead lodged in its spine, along with other injuries matching those which Richard III sustained when he was killed at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485. The remains also had signs of 'battle trauma' and scoliosis - the spinal condition which gave the medieval monarch his infamous hunched back. Richard III was the last English monarch to die in battle, after being defeated by an army led by Henry Tudor. www.m.yahoo.com/w/legobpengine/news/richard-iii--leicester-car-park-skull-is-that-of-medieval-monarch-100132929.html?orig_host_hdr=uk.news.yahoo.com&.intl=GB&.lang=en-GB&.tsrc=yahoo |
