The luxurious diet of the ancient king of England

The results of Richard III's teeth and bone research showed that the King of England had to drink one bottle of wine every day in the last years before dying.

The study, discovered by the British Geological Survey and the University of Leicester, also found Richard III eating meats such as swans, cranes, herons and white herons.

To make the above conclusion, experts took samples from the femur, ribs and teeth after the remains of the king were excavated at Leicester (England) in 2012.

It can be seen that Richard III's diet is several times higher than that of the same noble houses, according to chemist Angela Lamb speaking on Channel 4.

Although he enjoyed the extravagant luxury life, as well as the limited body due to hunchback, the king did not hesitate to take weapons to the battlefield.

Richard III, ascended to the throne in 1483, was killed in the Battle of Bosworth in August 485, and since then his grave has been lost before being found under the parking lot at Leicester.
