I will try to answer the points without re-opening too many debates:
1) The body has not yet been identified conclusively but a result looks likely next month and facial recognition technology will also be used.
2) Shortly after his death, Richard was buried in Greyfriars Abbey but this was closed fifty or sixty years later - hence the site was built over - eventually by a car park.
3) If the Greyfriars Warrior is Richard, current practice would see him reburied at Leicester Cathedral - almost a continuation of his original interment.

Happy New Year! Don't worry about not knowing as much as others. I'm still struggling to get knowledgeable but it doesn't stop me from commenting. Ask some questions and people will be glad to answer.
As far as Richard's body after death, just go to the Richard the Third Society's website. It will tell you everything you need to know. I'd explain it but I may get a detail wrong and don't want to steer you in the wrong direction. Maire.

I agree with all that you state, with the exception of the burial as I feel that York Minster would be
A far more fitting place for a King of England with his background.
However any known burial is better than a forgotten hole under a car park!

Hi George
I have been visiting York Minster often in the last year and have wondered where he would be interred if York was chosen. Where do you think they could place him? I would be unhappy if Richard was buried there but not given due reverence because the Minster has so many aspects to its history and taking into account their latest large scale project is on the stained glass. The Orb, opened in October, houses audiovisual and interactive galleries showcasing the stained glass in the Minster and the conservation work involved in its upkeep. It is an evolving display. As part of a five year project they also plan interactive displays in the underground chamber. What do you think?

Much as I would like to think that my opinion in the final resting place of R3 matters I feel that it is way above my pay grade and station in life!
However York is one of finest walled cities in the UK possibly Europe maintaining its link to the Jorvik past till its current vital present as a seat of learning, religion and transportation (not to mention Chocolate!) a place steeped in R3
I like many other members look forward to 2013 with both intrepidation and excitement, the fat lady is warming up in the wings.................but it ain't over till she sings!

Much as I would like to think that my opinion in the final resting place of R3 matters I feel that it is way above my pay grade and station in life!
However York is one of finest walled cities in the UK possibly Europe maintaining its link to the Jorvik past till its current vital present as a seat of learning, religion and transportation (not to mention Chocolate!) a place steeped in R3
I like many other members look forward to 2013 with both intrepidation and excitement, the fat lady is warming up in the wings.................but it ain't over till she sings!

I would be unhappy if Richard was buried there but not given due reverence because the Minster has so many aspects to its history and taking into account their latest large scale project is on the stained glass. The Orb, opened in October, houses audiovisual and interactive galleries showcasing the stained glass in the Minster and the conservation work involved in its upkeep. It is an evolving display. As part of a five year project they also plan interactive displays in the underground chamber. What do you think?

It's finally 2113, the year when we'll find out if the remains at Leicester really are those of Richard III and, if so, the year when Richard will receive a proper burial, the year when we'll find out how tall he was and what he really looked like, and, I hope, the year when books on the real Richard become best sellers.
