Shroud of Turin
Linen fragment that for centuries was said to be the burial garment of Jesus. It has been preserved since 1578 in the royal chapel of the Cathedral of San Giovanni Battista in Turin, Italy. Measuring 14 ft 3 in. by 3 ft 7 in. (4.3 m by 1.1 m), it appears to portray images of the back and front of a gaunt, sunken-eyed man. The images contain markings that correspond to the stigmata and stains presumed to be blood. It emerged historically in 1354 and went on exhibition in 1389, first as a representation of the true shroud and eventually as the genuine article. In 1988 independent tests determined that the cloth was made 1260-1390
