Richard III

They're scientists so they have to be careful not to leap to conclusions, but they've dug in the place where Richard was known to be buried and found the skeleton of a man with spinal curvature (which means one shoulder would have been higher than the other),  serious trauma to the skull and an arrow between the ribs; who else could it possibly be?

Redesmoor

With a gold ring round his helmet,
Fierce as a cornered hog,
The small man braved his enemies,
Unhorsed, down there in the bog,

Till William Gardner, commoner,

With knighthood on his mind,

And a damn big heavy poleaxe

Approached him from behind. 

Then all the saints and angels

To whom we used to pray

Came slithering out of heaven

Like trinkets from a tray.
