Joan of Arc remains ‘are fakes’
Joan of Arc remains ‘are fakes’:
- Bones thought to be the holy remains of 15th Century French heroine Joan of Arc were in fact made from an Egyptian mummy and a cat, research has revealed.
In 1867, a jar was found in a Paris pharmacy attic, along with a label claiming it held relics of Joan’s body.
But new forensic tests suggest that the remains date from between the third and sixth centuries BC – hundreds of years before Joan was even born.
