A 2022 study found evidence suggesting the Shroud of Turin, supposedly the burial cloth of Jesus Christ, dates back to 2000 years ago.
The Italian study used “wide-angle X-ray scattering” to analyze the fabric’s fibers and determine its approximate age.
The scientists concluded the shroud is around 2,000 years old.
Reporting from The Daily Caller:
As for the pollen study, it revealed the extensive travel the Shroud has taken throughout its existence. “The pollen samples that were gathered they, a lot of them are from plants that are native to not just the Middle East, but specifically the area around Judea, Palestine, and Syria and stay where it was in that time period,” Hyland told CBN. “There’s also pollen from the area around Constantinople. There’s a lot of pollen from Europe.”
