The face of King Richard III has been
unveiled to the world after a skeleton found under a council car park was
confirmed as that of the 15th century king.
A facial reconstruction of the monarch has been released by the Richard III Society after
it was confirmed that a skeleton unearthed in Leicester was that of the king
who died in the Battle of Bosworth in 1485.
The
image is based on a CT scan taken by experts at the University of Leicester,
who discovered the king's skeleton during an archaeological dig last September
with the help of the society.
