The archaeological samples analyzed from the Tomb of the Shroud (SC) and the molecular results for each genetic target.

The mitochondrial DNA amplification is represented as; 1st mt15975F-mt16322R; 2nd mt16190F-mt16420R; 3rd mt1F or mt15F-mt279R; and 4th mt155F-mt429R. a – indicates samples replicated at the Paleo-DNA Laboratory, b – indicates samples replicated at UCL (only mycobacterial results replicated), + indicates a positive result, - indicates a negative result. SC - corresponds to the Tomb of the Shroud loculus location numbers from the original tomb plan (Figure 1), T - corresponds to Tooth, B - corresponds to Bone and F - corresponds to Textile.
