Alejandro Dumas is not directly mentioned in the provided articles. However, the first article discusses the potential discovery of the remains of Charles de Batz de Castelmore, Count of D'Artagnan, a historical figure who served as a captain of the Musketeers under Louis XIII and Louis XIV. D'Artagnan is best known as the inspiration for the character of the same name in Dumas's famous novel, *The Three Musketeers*. The article details that a skeleton found in a church in Maastricht is undergoing DNA analysis to determine if it belongs to the real D'Artagnan, who died during the siege of Maastricht in 1673. This potential discovery is significant because it could shed light on the life and times of the historical figure who inspired one of Dumas's most enduring and beloved characters. The second article is unrelated, discussing the mayor of Ourense's dislike of opera.
