It probably wasn't technology. It was just nature.

The linnen used was probably exposed to a strong lightsource and heat somewhere in the middle ages and probably in the mediterranean region. The heat could be from the person dying from hypothermia hyperthermia. The picture is not due to dye, the linnen itself has been chemically altered somehow.

There's a good article about it here: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-33164668

Doesn't hypothermia mean your body is too cold? Maybe you meant hyperthermia?
