Richard III dig: DNA confirms bones are king's
英文wiki链接http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_III_of_England 中提及此事
In 2013, after an archaeological dig on a City Council car park on the site of Greyfriars, Leicester, the University of Leicester confirmed that a skeleton discovered in 2012 was, beyond reasonable doubt, that of Richard III, based on DNA tests and confirmation with contemporary reports of Richard's appearance.
在2012年,考古人员于兰开斯特的Greyfriars街(小编注:此街以前为Greyfriars教堂,理查三世亦下葬于此,后于16世纪被毁,于是理查三世之墓亦被毁)中的城市议会停车场考古挖掘中发现了人类遗骸。兰开斯特大学在DNA检测和对比现代报告中关于理查三世的容貌后于今年确认,其中一具遗骸毫无疑问是理查三世的遗骸。
