# Statistical and Proactive Analysis of an Inter-Laboratory Comparison: The Radiocarbon Dating of the Shroud of Turin

Paolo Di Lazzaro, Anthony C. Atkinson, Paola Iacomussi et al., 2020. _Entropy 22(9): 926_.

Reviews the sampling and the statistical analyses of the published and raw data: inter-laboratory heterogeneity and a monotone spatial trend in the subsample ages suggest contaminants unevenly removed by cleaning. Concludes the 1988 dating does not meet current accuracy standards and discusses whether to date the cloth again.
