    Richard the Third Identified

    Hello All,

    News from Britain is that a skeleton found without a coffin that was buried under a car park was in fact King Richard the Third!

    I wonder if the jaunty tune playing while they dug down was a bit of a give away.

    I'm Richard the Third, I am, I am,
    Richard the Third I am...

    When he said they could build the carpark "over my dead body", it wasn't quite what he had in mind.

    Miss his feet too because they were cut off after the Welsh smashed his head in with an axe.

    A more detailed link

    Hello All,

    Found this link and it has more detailed photographs. Yep I see what you mean DiscoMick about being sans feet. This is the first series of photos that show that much detail. I wonder where and what my direct Welsh ancestors were doing at the time....
