Digging for Richard III

the search for the lost king

Actually finding the grave of Richard III, the last king of the English Plantagenet dynasty, was a riveting event for the world. And locating a direct descendent, who happened to be a carpenter, was also riveting. Especially because he constructed his kingly ancestor's coffin for the re-burial. The entire story of the excavation, reconstruction of King Richard III's face, and his reburial, completed the most sensational archaeological find for generations.
