More historical and physical evidence for the Holy Shroud; and the record of bloodstains in the Holy Sepulchre and the possibi

First, a note on the discovery of a shroud in a hewn cave tomb of the Hinnom Valley by the Old City of Jerusalem. 1 The remnants show a plain (tabby) weave in wool. Carbon-14 dating by Douglas Donahue of Arizona University (who again stands by his erroneous date for the Holy Shroud) gives a date for the first half of the 1 st century AD. So far this fits approximately the evidence in situ. But ignorant conclusions from at least one member of the team working on the remains have been delivered, e.g. that this wool shroud indicates that the Holy Shroud cannot be genuine because it is made from 3:1 linen twill. This of course is more nonsense, like so many other statements from so-called experts. However, the discovery of a shrouded body in exactly the year 2000 is pertinent, revelatory, and Divine design cannot be ruled out; and nor can the DNA evidence recovered from the human remains inside this millennium shroud, because DNA remains on the Holy Shroud and will, notwithstanding the usual obstructions, procrastinations and posturing, be fully identified. More on this subject further on.
