Still a price on Ned Kelly's head 130 years after he was hanged.
DNA has proven the skeleton found is actually that of Australia's most notorious bushranger, Ned Kelly - but the skull that acompanies it is a fake.
So once again old Ned has a price on his head.
Scientists found Kelly's remains among the bones of 24 unidentified prisoners on the site of an old prison in Victoria, Australia.
They used DNA from a descendant 130 years after the scourge of Victorian lawmen was hanged for bush ranging.
The Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine scientists led a 20 month investigation that combined DNA analysis, CT scanning, X-rays, pathology, odontology, anthropology and historical research.
But where is Ned kelly's head?
