Harold Godwinson died in The Battle of Hastings in 1066. He was the son of the Earl of Wessex.
Harold was killed by an arrow in his eye.
It is also said that William, Duke of Normandy, sent four of his men to finish him off.
The first man rode up to Harold and stabbed his sword into Harold's shield and through into his chest. The second cut his head off. The third disemboweled him with a javelin (pulled his insides out) and the final one thought 'Well he's probably dead now, so why not hack his legs off?', and that's what he did.
Harold's body has not been fully recovered but some remains have been buried at Waltham Abbey, Waltham, Essex, England.
Really hope this helps.
