The University of Leicester Alumni Lecture 2013 – “The Search for Richard III” was given by Mathew Morris and Dr Turi King. Both are graduates of the University of Leicester and of course leading members of the Greyfriars project, as Fieldwork Director and Project Geneticist respectively.
The lecture is available to listen to over the internet, which is for us at the other end of the world a fantastic opportunity to hear the scientists involved in the project actually speak about the archaeological search for the King and the process of identifying the skeleton.
Some of the content is also contained in the book published by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services, Richard III: The King under the Car Park. However, hearing Mathew Morris and Turi King actually speak about the dig brings it much more to life.
