Join us for an intriguing discussion with Dr. Kelly Kearse as we delve into the realm of the Shroud of Turin. In this captivating interview, we explore one of the most perplexing aspects surrounding this ancient linen cloth – the mysterious aged bloodstains imprinted upon its surface.
Previous studies have revealed a plethora of information about these bloodstains, suggesting their authenticity through the presence of various blood components.

However, questions still remain: why do these blood stains appear more reddish than expected for aged blood?
Dr. Kearse sheds light on this intriguing conundrum, examining two prevailing hypotheses. Could the reddish hue be attributed to the residual coating of Saponaria, a softening agent used in ancient linen processing? Or does it result from the high bilirubin content in the blood, indicative of severe physical trauma?

As Dr. Kearse critically evaluates these hypotheses, he shares unexpected findings from his research. Moreover, the presence of glycerin in pre-treated material can unexpectedly influenced bloodstain color.
With a scientific perspective, Dr. Kearse scrutinizes the implications of these findings for the evaluation of bloodstains on the Shroud of Turin. Join us as we embark on a thought-provoking journey into the mysteries surrounding the iconic Shroud of Turin.
