The Genealogy of Jesus Christ has triggered a sensation since being discovered at the National Library of Wales earlier this year.
The 17th-century tome lists huge amounts of information on the bloodlines of biblical characters, including Jesus himself. It also contains intriguingly crossed- out passages about Mary Magdalene, a figure also central to Dan Brown's phenomenal best seller The Da Vinci Code.

I can't believe they're having trouble finding an expert.
Last I checked, the publishing world was crawling with self-proclaimed Da Vinci Code experts.
I know. It's almost as if The Da Vinci Code were a work of fiction, and Dan Brown's most ardent followers were credulous ninnies.
Almost.
