CWN Editor's Note: The research journal Archaeometry published a response to a previous article on the Shroud of Turin.
In the previous article, Cicero Moraes argued in favor of the Shroud’s “origin as a medieval work of art.” In the response, Tristan Casabianca, Emanuela Marinelli, and Alessandro Piana argued that the earlier article “relies on ambiguous aims, methodological flaws, and fallacious reasoning.”
