Shroud of Turin

[Minimalist]

Just about a year ago, archaeologist Shimon Gibson announced the finding of an actual, first-century, burial shroud ( C14 dated to that century) and which shows how first century burials were done.

Radiocarbon tests and artefacts found in the cave prove almost beyond doubt that it was from the same time of Christ's death.

It was made with a simple two-way weave - not the twill weave used on the Turin Shroud, which textile experts say was introduced more than 1,000 years after Christ lived.

And instead of being a single sheet like the famous item in Turin, the Jerusalem shroud is made up of several sections, with a separate piece for the head.
