"The Shroud has been publicly shown 100 years before da Vinci was born. Like nearly every theory surrounding the mystery, that, too, is disputed. They also compared da Vinci's disputed Salvator Mundi painting to the image on the Shroud.
The co-authors even put together their own experiments to try and replicate the religious relic using a bust of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. "And if that doesn't sound crazy enough, we're saying it's a 500-year-old photograph of Leonardo da Vinci because he used his own face as the model, because that's the kind of thing he did," Prince added. Clive Prince, who along with Lynn Picknett, wrote The Turin Shroud: How Leonardo da Vinci Fooled History, said "It's a 500-year-old photograph by Leonardo da Vinci." Still others call this "bit of linen" a forgery by none other than Leonardo da Vinci. I mean, there it is, and it is blood, and not only is it blood, it is type AB, which is the type that's consistent with Palestinian Jews." Some say the cloth housed in the Turin Cathedral is a vessel for human blood, and therefore may be nothing less than the Holy Grail, an object of some captivation that is said to have gone missing in 1204.īritish filmmaker David Rolfe said of the Holy Grail theory, "You realize that the cloth is a vessel that's containing Christ's blood.

That Italian study is just the latest in a long series of scientific testing, including studies of pollen plucked from the Shroud with a scientific tape dispenser. Now, a new scientific procedure dates fabric from the Shroud to roughly 2,000 years ago. "The only single sample they took did not represent anywhere else on the cloth because it had been manipulated," said Barrie Schwortz, a Jewish photographer based in Colorado who was called upon to photograph the Shroud in the 1970s. That test has repeatedly been called into question by various experts. In 1988, carbon testing dated the Shroud back to medieval times.
In an interview with CBN News, Hyland said that "there have been questions about the veracity of this image ever since its first documented appearance in the late 14th century."

The linen is viewed by some as the burial Shroud of Jesus Christ and others as a medieval forgery.
