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.
