She was the first to witness the resurrection. She was the first to carry the message. And for fifteen hundred years, the Church called her a prostitute.
Mary Magdalene is one of the most recognisable figures in Christian history - and one of the most deliberately distorted. What the earliest gospel texts actually record is a woman of means, a faithful disciple, a healer's devoted follower who stood at the cross when the male disciples had fled, and the singular first witness to the event that became the foundation of the Christian faith.
So why was she buried?
This book goes back to the earliest surviving evidence to recover the real Mary Magdalene - the woman the texts actually show, before centuries of institutional decision-making replaced her with something more convenient.
What the evidence reveals:
The buried questions this book addresses:
The burial of her authority was not an accident. It was a consequence of decisions made about power, gender, and who gets to speak for God.
Her name was preserved. Her witness was recorded. And then, systematically, her meaning was changed.
This is the recovery of what was lost.
