In the absence of DNA evidence (the application for which was turned down by the Church authorities) it cannot really be confirmed either way. <br /><br />What I find more interesting - apart from the apparent proof that the grave at Holy Trinity was disturbed - are the numerous correspondences between the skull and the Shakespeare portraiture. These have been identified by a research fellow and research student in biological anthropology, and taken en masse they point either to a truly extraordinary set of coincidences or the need for further laboratory study of the skull.<br /><br />Kevin Colls seems convinced that the skull was stolen and is still out there, somewhere (and I understand that further tests of the Holy Trinity grave are pending). So, until I can find a convincing explanation for the number of very precise similarities between the skull and the portraiture, the case remains open.<br /><br />Very best,<br /><br />SimonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07579992524124124425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350432428721365043.post-85042080740580094322016-03-23T06:42:52.028-07:002016-03-23T06:42:52.028-07:00You might be interested in this piece on the Teleg...You might be interested in this piece on the Telegraph's website, which reveals that the Beoley skull is not that of the Bard but belonged to a seventy-year-old woman.
