The Grail is supposedly the cup from which Jesus drank at the Last Supper. A few problems: Since there was no Jesus, there was no Last Supper. Since there was no Last Supper, then the bloke who didn't exist wouldn't have had any cause to drink. Hence, not the Grail.
But I especially liked the tag end of the article:
That said, they claim to have used a scientific dating method to determine that the chalice was likely made between 200 B.C. and A.D. 100.
So, the cup was made sometime over a span of three centuries, and the impoverished man who wasn't there to drink from it at a dinner party that never took place just happened to come across a jug worth a (petty) king's ransom.
Pardon me for failing to convert.
