Dear Sujith Philip,
Thanks for sharing this information.
It is very interesting to read the details of the tomb. It is assumed that this Metropolitan was buried before 1545 (AD 800-1545) It is not clear why they think it should be after AD 800.
Has the inscriptions been analysed ?
We know for sure that our Bishops came from Middle East. If this tomb is from AD 800 etc, it will be interesting to know whether this Metropolitan was Indian in ethnicity.
Has any autopsy been done to find the ethnicity of this Metropolitian ? Specifically, is he Middle Eastern or Indian. If it is found that he was Indian, then it is going to be an interesting finding. A forensic expert will be able to comment about the ethnicity by analysing the skeleton, the features of bones, skull, measurements etc.
Has any DNA analysis on bones or similar investigations been done?
Sorry,a lot of questions.
