A skeleton lay in the dirt beneath a church. The church floor tiles have been removed and after an archaeological investigation the skeleton lay exposed. The image shows the floor and skeleton in situ
NSFW because skeletal material

It's looking like the actual Dartagnan's remains may have been discovered under a Dutch church. A very cool find if true. At the very least it's someone of note (at the time) to have been buried there and in such a way.

Musket ball to the throat if anyone was wondering

"More than 350 years after the death of legendary French musketeer d'Artagnan, his remains may well have been found under the floor of a Dutch church."

@m3moellering If they waited there might not be a story after all. Have to answer when opportunity knocks.
