BACK to your PORT! Good eye on the one severe cut over the left frontal bone though.
"Three of the king’s injuries - two to the skull and one to the pelvis - had the potential to cause death quickly, according to the university’s forensic imaging team. They used whole body CT scans and micro-CT imaging of injured bones to analyse trauma to the 500-year-old skeleton carefully and to determine which of the King’s wounds might have proved fatal. They also analysed tool marks on bone to identify the medieval weapons potentially responsible for his injuries.
The results, published today in The Lancet, show that Richard’s skeleton sustained 11 wounds at or near the time of his death:
nine of them to the skull, clearly inflicted in battle and suggesting he had removed or lost his helmet, and two to the postcranial skeleton."

PS:I did take a course or two, 1 year, in forensics!
Bottom Line: he's missing some big parts to the cranium-
