Miguel Cervantes grave found

The Spanish government announced that they had positively identified the coffin and remains of Miguel Cervantes, author of Don Quixote. He was buried in a church in Madrid and when the church was enlarged in the 17th century the record of the location of his grave was lost. Cervantes was born in 1547 and died in 1616.

Yes, Cervantes was hilarious; Richard III was murderous.

 

This link has a photograph at the bottom of the article showing the initials "MC" on a piece of metal on the fragments of the coffin of Miguel Cervantes. The link is to a Spanish newspaper (I think from Madrid):
