The Shroud of Turin is believed to be the cloth that Jesus Christ was wrapped in when he was buried. It measures about 14 feet by 4 feet and has an image on it like a photographic negative that people claim to be Jesus Christ. The Shroud is making headlines because scientists in Italy claim that they have reproduced the image and have proved that the Shroud is not really from medieval times and is a hoax.
