radiocarbon analysis of Egyptian artefacts shows serious contradictions.
We shall once again consider the alleged reliability of the radiocarbon method used for supporting
the traditional version of the ancient history, particularly Egyptian,
as reflected in a fundamental and detailed article
published by the Manchester Museum in England in 1979 as part of the project named The Mummies
of the Manchester Museum. The radiocarbon dating of the mummy points
the mummys bones to 1000 b.c., whereas the cloth that the mummy has
been wrapped in received the dating of 380 a.d.
The discrepancy between the datings of the mummy and the cloth equals some 1400 years,
although the dates should be equal. The cloth may be somewhat older than the mummy
if an old cloth had been used by the embalmers, but it couldnt possibly have belonged to a
later age.
