The Culturist@the_culturist_Is this the image of Jesus? There's a lot of talk about the Shroud of Turin lately, so let's break down the evidence. A new X-ray study suggests it's 2,000 years old — but that's just the beginning....
SummaryA detailed examination of the Shroud of Turin—claimed to be Jesus's burial cloth—presents scientific puzzles: the image is impossibly precise and shallow (200-500 nanometers), contains 3D information and photographic-negative properties that couldn't be replicated with known technology, and shows details consistent with crucifixion including rare AB-type blood and Middle Eastern pollen. While 1988 carbon dating suggested a medieval origin (1260-1390 AD), a 2022 X-ray study of cellulose breakdown indicates the linen is approximately 2,000 years old, creating a significant discrepancy that remains unexplained.Jan 21, 202524 tweets♥ 40.5K

derek guy@dieworkwearHave you ever noticed that people dressed better in the past? Even in the summer, when it was scorching hot? Why is this? 🧵
