The Shroud of Turin


The Shroud of Turin is a cloth that appears to bear the image of a crucified man. It is believed to be the burial shroud of Jesus of Nazareth. The cloth was first discovered in the 1800s. The shroud has been the topic of hot debate among scientists and theologians ever since. The faithful believe that Jesus' image was transferred onto the cloth during his resurrection. Radiocarbon testing has been performed but officials can not agree on the results. No one knows how the image of a man's face came to be on the cloth.
