All they can try to do is use mitochondrial DNA to see if the people buried there are in any way related. So they could look at the "Jesus" and "Mary Magdalene" remains and see if they are related or not, and if not then they can infer thet they were a couple. They can look at the relationships of all those in the tomb: biologically related or not...but thats all they can do.


It wouldn't prove anything. The 'Mary Magdelene' could just as well be the daughter-in-law of the 'Jesus'.


Unless daughter in laws were not traditionally buried with her father in law.

well not quite. It would show the biological relation, or lack there of, of the people buried there. But thats all it would do. There is no way to make a scientific link to Jesus here at all.
