Authorities confirmed Monday that a skeleton found in the carpark of a supermarket in the English town Leicester is that of Shakespearean villain Richard III, according to The Daily Beast. 

The skeleton was found last fall and DNA tests have been ongoing since then. 

Richard III died at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, and signs of injuries on the skeleton were consistent with battle wounds, including a missing part of the skull and a barbed metal arrowhead in the upper back.
