As Mark Phillips reports, the discovery will likely rewrite history. Reporter there was a time, archaeologists have discovered, when being king of england was a dead end job. It certainly was for richard iii whose battered bones have been found stuffed into a grave definitely not fit for a king. A grave that was lost for 500 years and discovered under what is now a parking lot. The skeletons curved spine matched the historic tale of the hunchback king. The fearsome wounds matched the story of a king killed in battle. It took modern science to find an ancient king. Dna analysis comparing the genetic code in the bones with that was michael ipsen, a descendant discovered 16 generations later. The phone rings and someone says, im a historian, youre related to richard iii. Congratulations . More or less, i think he started by saying, im not a lunatic.
