当地媒体周三报道,在荷兰城市马斯特里赫特的一座教堂中发现了一具可能属于达达尼昂的骸骨。达达尼昂是一位法国士兵,正是他的经历启发了小说《三个火枪手》的创作。他在这座城市结束了几个世纪前的生命。

据林堡省媒体L1 Nieuws报道,这具骸骨是在马斯特里赫特的一座现代教堂中殿被发现的。该教堂的历史可追溯至至少13世纪,今年2月因部分地面坍塌进行修复时发现了这一遗迹。

查尔斯·德·巴茨·德·卡斯泰尔莫尔(即著名的达达尼昂),是路易十三和路易十四时期的火枪手,一生为法国王室效力。

这位来自加斯科涅的贵族在19世纪启发了大仲马在《三个火枪手》中的英雄角色,这个人物如今因小说和众多电影改编而闻名于世。

1673年,达达尼昂在马斯特里赫特之围中丧生,该市为纪念这位火枪手竖立了一座雕像。但他最终的安葬地点一直是个谜。

教堂执事乔斯·瓦尔克(Jos Valke)在最初发掘时在场,他表示在骸骨附近发现了一枚法国硬币。

“此外,墓地的位置表明这是一位重要人物:骸骨发现于原祭坛所在位置,而在当时,只有王室成员或其他重要人物才会被安葬在祭坛之下,”他向L1 Nieuws透露。

瓦尔克补充说,还有其他线索表明这具骸骨可能属于这位著名的法国火枪手。

“杀死他的子弹位于胸部位置,这与历史记载完全一致。证据非常确凿,”他告诉L1 Nieuws。

据报道,这具骸骨已被移出教堂,目前存放在德国东部代芬特尔的一家考古研究所。

3月13日从骸骨上提取了DNA样本,目前正在慕尼黑的一家实验室进行分析。

考古学家维姆·迪克斯曼(Wim Dijkman)已搜寻达达尼昂的遗骨长达28年。

“作为一名科学家,我总是非常谨慎,但我抱有很高的期望,”他告诉L1 Nieuws。

迪克斯曼表示,DNA检测结果应在未来几周内完成。

“目前,国内外正在进行各种分析和调查,”他向L1 Nieuws透露,“这确实已成为一项顶级调查,我们希望能绝对确定这就是达达尼昂。”

Skeleton of famed soldier who inspired “The Three Musketeers” possibly found in Dutch church

A skeleton which could belong to d’Artagnan, the French soldier who inspired the novel “The Three Musketeers,” has been discovered in a church in the Dutch city where he died centuries ago, local media reported Wednesday.

The skeleton was found in Maastricht, in the nave of a modern church whose origins date back to at least the 13th century, during repairs related to a partial floor collapse in February, reported L1 Nieuws, a media outlet in the province of Limburg.

Charles de Batz de Castelmore, known as d’Artagnan, the famous musketeer of Kings Louis XIII and Louis XIV, spent his life in the service of the French crown.

The Gascon nobleman inspired Alexandre Dumas’s hero in “The Three Musketeers” in the 19th century, a character now known worldwide thanks to the novel and numerous film adaptations.

D’Artagnan was killed during the siege of Maastricht in 1673, and there is a statue honoring the musketeer in the city. His final resting place has remained a mystery ever since.

A French coin was found near the skeleton in Maastricht, according to Deacon Jos Valke, who was present during the initial excavation.

“Furthermore, the location of the grave indicates that this was an important person: the skeleton was found where the altar used to be, and only royalty or other important figures were buried under an altar at that time,” he told L1 Nieuws.

Valke told the outlet that there are other clues that suggest the skeleton belongs to the famous French musketeer.

“The bullet that killed him lay at chest level. Exactly as described in the history books. The evidence is very strong,” he told L1 Nieuws.

The skeleton has been removed from the church and is now in an archaeological institute in Deventer, in eastern Germany, the outlet reported.

A DNA sample was taken from the skeleton on March 13 and is currently being analysed in a laboratory in Munich.

Archaeologist Wim Dijkman has been searching for d’Artagnan’s remains for 28 years.

“I’m always very cautious, I’m a scientist. But I have high expectations,” he told L1 Nieuws.

Dijkman told the outlet that DNA tests should be complete within the next few weeks.

“At the moment, all kinds of analyses and investigations are underway domestically and abroad,” he told L1 Nieuws. “It has really become a top-level investigation. We want to be absolutely certain that it is d’Artagnan.”
