The
Shroud of Turin (or
Turin Shroud) is a linen cloth bearing the image of a man who appears to
have been physically hurt in a manner consistent with crucifixion .
It is kept in the royal chapel of the
Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Turin, Italy.
How and when the shroud and its image were created
is the subject of intense debate among scientists, believers, historians and researchers.
Believers contend that the shroud is the cloth placed on the body of Jesus Christ at the time of his burial, and that the face image is the Holy Face of Jesus.
Detractors contend that the artifact postdates the Crucifixion by more than a millennium.
Both sides of the argument use science and historical documents to make their case.
