New Details on the Unroyal End of Richard III, ‘King in the Car Park’ | Wired Science | Wired.com
For two short years he was King of England, one of the most powerful men in the world. Then he was killed, desecrated, and dumped in a hastily dug grave, the location of which would be forgotten and rediscovered, centuries later, under a parking lot. So ends the tale of Richard III, which over the last several months has played out like a Game of Thrones episode combined with CSI and told by archaeologists.
Everything I know of the period, I learned from Black Adder.
