Shroud of Christ, D4145, Flury-Lemberg had originally been approached back in the early
1980s to try to date the Shroud by analyzing the structure of the cloth. She refused,
because, she says, it is impossible to get a serious result dating a textile by textile
analysis alone. In 1988, the keepers of the Shroud permitted radiocarbon dating of the relic
-- with unanticipated results. The tests indicated that the cloth had been made sometime
between 1260 and 1390 A.D., and thus was a medieval forgery rather than the actual burial
shroud of Christ. And yet, when Flury-Lemberg finally did agree to head the restoration and
conservation of the linen in the summer of 2002, the Shroud had a far different story to tell
