Aug 18-Shroud of Turin Scholars to Speak at Botanical Garden

By now, most are aware of the dispute over the carbon dating results from tests some twenty years ago.

...One man who has challenged the radiocarbon dating is Avinoam Danin, a professor of botany at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has spent decades examining images of plant remains on the shroud. Danin has said the shroud was buried in the vicinity of Jerusalem — not Europe, as had previously been thought — during the months of March or April.

Danin and Petrus Soons, a retired medical doctor who has used digitized photos of the shroud to create three-dimensional holograms, will give a free double lecture at the Missouri Botanical Garden on Monday, Aug. 18, at 5:30 p.m....

This might be an interesting lecture for those in the neighborhood.
