Shroud of Turin: New DNA study finds 'Jesus Christ's burial cloth' may have an Indian connection; How does this rewrite history?

Shroud of Turin DNA Analysis: A genomic study published in Scientific Reports has revealed the presence of plant and human DNA lineages associated with the Indian subcontinent within the fibres of the Shroud of Turin. These findings suggest the cloth, long considered by many to be the burial shroud of Jesus Christ, may have been manufactured in India or transported through ancient trade routes like the Silk Road long before its recorded appearance in 14th-century Europe.
