January 15th, 2024
What happened to RICHARD III’S CORPSE? How did the last Plantagenet King die, how was the body of Richard III lost for over 500 years, how was he rediscovered and what controversies have sprung up in the years since his skeleton was located in Leicester, earning him the moniker, the King in the carpark? In this week’s video from History Calling we go back to the medieval sources to learn all about the gruesome death of Richard III; the way in which his body was mistreated by being put on display, naked; its eventual burial in the Grey Friars; how his grave became lost to history and the myths which then sprang up about his final resting place.
