The Life and Death of a Soldier in the Wars of the Roses (Towton 16)

What was it like to fight in a medieval battle? The discovery of a mass grave associated with the 1461 Battle of Towton, in the midst of the Wars of the Roses, offers concrete and horrifying answers. Here, we focus on one individual - Towton 16 - who had already spent much of his long life engaged in violent pursuits. At Towton, he finally met his end.
