Loyaulte me lie
Talk about getting thrown under the bus:
DNA tests have confirmed that human remains found buried beneath an English car park are those of the country's King Richard III.
Vilified by the Tudors, Richard III was nothing like the evil hunchback of Shakespeare. I studied him for a project during my second run through college. Miraculously, many of his accusers, if you will, recieved gracious gifts and promotions from the Tudors. My favourite quote of the article:
"He was a medieval man. If you put him back into the 15th century, he's exactly as the others are -- princes, dukes, nobles, they're all doing exactly the same things, and he's better than some."
