Way back in the 12th century, the bones of a certain fellow named Vicente de las Arcas were found in the consecrated soil of the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción in Rueda, Spain. Yet, this man, known to history only as Vicente de las Arcas, has the locals scratching their heads today. Where's he truly buried? Somewhere hidden amongst the church walls, marked by a simple tombstone declaring: 'Here lies Vicente de las Arcas.'
