For some three centuries after the time of Jesus, there was little interest in identifying any holy sites or artefacts associated with Jesus. However, during the reign of Emperor Constantine, his mother, Helena, went to Palestine to look for evidence of Jesus. She claimed to have discovered the site of his crucifixion and burial, as well as the 'true cross' and other discoveries. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is built on the site that Helena claimed to have been the burial site of Jesus.
