Vince Green Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 apparantly yes http://www.telegraph.co.uk/history/9745893/Carpark-skeleton-will-be-confirmed-as-Richard-III.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deputy dog Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Not sure yet, though i understand they will be releasing the results some time later on today. But by the looks it is looking positive they have found him due to the fact of the skeleton showing signs of battle scars during time of death and the tell tail curving of the spine he supposedly suffered from. But nothing in stone as of yet saying it is him. DD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nothing in stone as of yet saying it is him. DD I think they can tell for sure by doing a DNA comparison with some bloke they've got who's a direct descendant of his sister. That's what impressed me the most. Nial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I think they can tell for sure by doing a DNA comparison with some bloke they've got who's a direct descendant of his sister. That's what impressed me the most. Nial Only just picked up on this. I mis-heard believing that this bloke was a direct descendent of his son. Not being the case, the guy could not have a valid claim to the throne. Consequently, it is not the guy I thought it may have been. Am I right in saying that there's a guy wandering around the UK that it would seem does have a genuine claim. If so, any idea how come, anyone?
