A coffin containing the remains of English King Richard III, found under a car park in 2012, were lowered into the ground at Leicester cathedral on Thursday in a ceremony five centuries after his death.

“We return the bones of your servant Richard to the grave,” Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, the spiritual leader of the Church of England, said in a prayer shortly before the reburial.
