ossuaries of Joseph, Mary, Jesus, the son of Joseph, Mariamne (possibly Mary Magdalene, say the filmmakers) and Judah, son of Jesus.

Also gone were diagrams made by excavators that showed where each stone sarcophagus lay inside the tomb, and what the family relationships might have been, say, between Jesus and Mary Magdelene, who some speculate may have been his wife.

Didn't take TIME long to go from "mariamne" to "Mary Magdalene", as if that is FACT, rather than the speculation as stated in the first reference, making the 'speculation" into not 'Magdalene', but 'His wife'.

the possible discovery of Christ's tomb will illicit mixed reactions among Christians.

Fraudian slip showing?

Gat and two other archaeologists excavated the tomb, which had been vandalized centuries earlier.

By whom, and in what manner; and what effect does that have upon the entire 'interpretation'?

What the hell kind of question is that? It's not exactly the kind of thing the CSI crew can solve with the magic enhance button.
