Turin Shroud Study - Dated to Time of Jesus
by mjolnir from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6Q55Q)
"In a study published in the journal Heritage, the authors conducted dating work on a sample from the Shroud, coming to the conclusion that it may be a 2,000-year-old relic.
The Shroud, which has long been the subject of intense scrutiny, features a faint image of man that some believe is the body of Jesus miraculously imprinted onto the cloth. While the latest study does not discuss the question of whether or not the artifact was indeed Jesus' burial shroud, the authors did find that its age is roughly consistent with his time.
The findings challenge previous research supporting a medieval origin of the Shroud, which is one of the most studied archaeological objects in the world." https://www.newsweek.com/turin-shrou...-jesus-1942310
