Who was buried in the Shroud of Turin cloth?
Strictly speaking, no one was ever buried in the Shroud of Turin, since it has been shown conclusively to be a medieval fraud, in fact one of several such cloths that were venerated in earlier times. However, many Catholics still believe that Jesus was buried in the Shroud.
Why hasn't the Shroud of Turin deteriorated with time?
Ever since the Shroud of Turin was created in the fourteenth century, it has been carefully looked after. At first, this was because veneration of the Shroud represented a valuable source of income, more recently because it represents a valuable means of affirming the faith of Catholics. It is now rarely even shown, so as to avoid further deterioration. The Shroud of Turin did suffer some minor damage in a fire.
Was the Turin shroud real or fake?
The Shroud of Turin is a real piece of cloth. However, science supposedly proved it was a forgery made about 600 years ago using carbon dating. New discoveries though have shown that a special chemical covering the shroud causes innacurate carbon dating. No one will ever know for sure whether this shroud actually covered Jesus after his death, but it is still a fascinating artifact.
What are the markings on the Shroud of Turin?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe markings on the Shroud of Turin are those of a dead man's body who died form crucifixion. Most Catholics believe that it is the actual burial cloth that Our Blessed Lord's Body was wrapped in when it was buried. Most modern scholarship agrees that it came from Palestine about that time. There have been many famous detractors, but more scholarship has shown them all to have been mistaken.
Has science proven that Jesus lived?
Proof of the existence or otherwise of Jesus is something that will probably always remain outside the scope of science. Certainly, science has shown the Shroud of Turin to be a more recent artefact than many had hoped it to be, but that does not reflect on the historicity of Jesus.
Who found Turin shroud?
Original answer: It is kept safely in Italy Turin. but it is not the cloth that wrapped the body of Jesus as it is much younger in age. New answer: Yes, the Shroud of Turin is in the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Turin, Italy. However, new technologies suggest that the radio carbon testing done in 1988 that originally placed the Shroud around the 1260 to 1390 time frame is in fact inaccurate. There is currently a large consensus that the Shroud could be from the time of Jesus and has been further analyzed to reveal pollens imbedded throughout the linen found only within a 50 mile radius of Israel at that time.
What is the best museum in the US with Asian art?

Was Jesus dressed or no clothes when to rose from the dead?
Jesus was wrapped in a shroud after death, as was the custom then. After death, women came to wash the body, then wrapped him in the shroud, then he was buried. So he is often shown with a white shroud billowing around him when Jesus rises from the dead. Note: The washing of the body is a practice hospitals and funeral homes continue today. It is a sign of respect and giving dignity to the person and the person's body.

How do the Catholics defend the long hair of Jesus Christ?
The Catholic Church does not 'defend' the long hair of Jesus. There is really no evidence that Jesus had long hair and most icons that picture Jesus with long hair are based on the Shroud of Turin or Mandylion which is now thought to have been the same cloth as the Shroud but folded so only the face is shown. Both show an image of a man with long hair. If Jesus followed the style of the time, his hair was probably short. If Jesus were a Nazarite, he would have had long hair but all evidence seems to show he did not follow Nazarite traditions that dictated long hair and no drinking of wine nor touching of dead bodies. Since the authenticity of the Shroud is still in doubt, the long hair of Jesus is also in doubt. However, even if the Shroud of Turin turns out to be a fake, it would still not necessarily mean Jesus had short or long hair. As we see in the Gospels, Jesus was not always a strict observer of Jewish traditions and was constantly at odds with the scribes and pharisees over rules of conduct that they were enforcing on the people as being Divine in nature when they were of human origin. Jesus was not a conventional Jew and challenged the authorities all the time. We can not rule out long hair completely.

What are the proofs of the Shroud of Turin?
Another answer from our community:On the shroud are blood stains at the wrist and ankle on the image of a man that appears on the shroud. Science has shown that in order to hold a body up on the cross, the nails would have had to have pierced the wrist rather than the palm.On the back of the man's image, are some odd markings which exactly resemble a Roman whip called a flagran. Jesus was beaten by the Romans before his death, so these markings make sense.Around the head there is blood (because he wore a crown of thorns), but also a lot of pollen from the plant "Gundelia tournefortii" which is a thorny plant, around the head of the image. Further informationIt has been noted that the image is unnaturally elongated, in the style of medieval art.
