Archaeoscoop: Richard III: It's Him!

[@Archaeos0up]

This is true! I was talking to someone who grew up in Leicester last week. Their mother took them to the car park to talk about Richard III. I suspect this is a matter of academics taking local stories and claiming a more legitimate narrative following research. No - He was not lost. However now he is... observable, I guess. Thanks for watching.

This is a fascinating discovery.

[@Archaeos0up]

He expressed a desire to be buried in York. However, York Minster have expressed reticence and given that he has been in Leicester for the better part of a thousand years, folks have decided to bury him there. It's always a delicate decision dealing with human remains.

A job well done!

[@meleagrisfelis]

Yay!

[@jochum334]

simple question, was he ever lost? Didn't we kinda know where he was buried?

[@tctheunbeliever]

My kingdom for a hearse!

[@pattiern]

It is to be hoped that Roman Catholic rites were observed when he is interred. Full Latin Mass etc.

It's heresy to disturb the dead. They should bury him back in the car-park. In his own space of course.
