Other Claims
Certain New Age spiritualists believe that another tomb of the Virgin Mary is located in Kashmir, India, where a town was originally named Mari. Proponents claim that Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary travelled to India after escaping the crucifixion, where they remained until the end of their lives. The authenticity of these claims are not academically established and has never merited any scholastic or academic research, nor canonical endorsement from the Holy See.
