Legitimacy of the Shroud of Turin

Thank you Dan.

My immediate impression is that

  • the main author is the same person that wrote the Shroud paper;
  • the plot is the same as the one in the shroud paper, but with axes and proper dates, and without the shroud line
  • the article on dating the shroud contains none of the equations, uncertainties or caveats in the MDPI paper.

If De Caro was accurately reporting his findings, he’d be saying that his method showed the shroud dated from somewhere between 65AD and 575AD, most probably around 200AD, and so was unlikely to be genuine.
