I have been studying The Shroud of Turin for 4 months I have no doubt it is the burial cloth of Jesus.

A sticky has been made for this at the link Byblos provided - not essential - but if we could keep all shroud related stuff there - then that would be nice. Of course you are not in anyway oblidged to do so.

Silvertusk.

Great videos Madelduke, especially of the Barbara Frale work on the death certificate found on the shroud image.
Could you please post it on the major shroud thread ?
This is an area of shroud research I'm not yet intimately familiar with as I was looking for this video for ages. Wish I had Frales book.
I also believe that the shroud was wrapped around our Lord:)

On Barbara Frale

In 2009 a Vatican researcher said she had found the words `Jesus Nazarene' on the cloth, This was Barbara Frale, but most of her fellow Shroud pro-authenticists (including me) regard her claims as false (if not fraudulent designed to sell her book):

"Once again we are being bombarded by media claims about the Shroud of Turin, although this time admittedly from a pro-authenticity position by researcher Barbara Frale ... Frale claims she has `discovered' inscriptions on the Shroud that prove it is authentic. However, she is basing her conclusions on the work done by French researchers Marion and Courage (published in the late 1990's) which made these same claims. Rather than submitting her work to a journal that could review and verify her research, she ... is publishing her work in a commercial book (and only in Italian). In fact, the recent press coverage seems to be mainly designed to promote the sale of that book. Once again, we are seeing `science' reported by press releases rather than in the conventional scientific literature." ("Science by Press Release (Again).
