Richard III archaeological dig bones 'like king'
Archaeologists searching for the grave of Richard III have said human remains found in Leicester show similarities to the king's portrayal in records.
The English king died at the battle of Bosworth in 1485. Archaeologists began a dig searching for his last resting place on 25 August under a car park in Leicester.
The remains found show signs of spinal abnormalities and a "cleaved-in skull" that suggest it could be Richard III, the University of Leicester team has said.
Anthony Bartram reports.
