From a Christian perspective, Helena, mother of the fourth-century Roman Emperor Constantine, located, to her own satisfaction, all the spots where every important event in the recorded career of Jesus at Jerusalem supposedly took place. She discovered the site of Jesus' crucifixion at Golgotha , his burial place, and even the locations where Jesus was born and ascended to heaven.
Prior to Helena, there seems to have been no Christian interest in holy sites in Israel, and none was known.
