- Shroud of germs.
- Stephen Mattingly believes the Turin shroud was 'painted' by bacteria from a dying man's body. ...
- The image of a tall, bearded man bearing the marks of crucifixion that adorn the Turin shroud has never been adequately explained. Those who have attempted to answer the vexed question of the shroud's origins have often found themselves accused of poor science, even vested interests. ...
- Stephen Mattingly of the University of Texas Health Science Centre in San Antonio believes the image on the Turin shroud was created not by human hands or any mystical power, as has been suggested, but by bacteria. ...
- In 1989, three separate scientific teams published a study of the shroud in the journal Nature. Using radiocarbon dating, they claimed the shroud must have come into being some time between 1260 and 1390 -suggesting that it was a medieval hoax rather than the genuine article. ... He doesn't claim that the individual wrapped in the linen shroud was necessarily Jesus, but he does think microbes, not Leonardo, were the real artists behind the image. ...
- But he insists the Turin shroud is not the basis for his belief. ...
- The bacterial imprint revealed fingernails, a ring and facial features, very similar in quality to the image on the Turin shroud. ...
- Schwortz was the official documenting photographer for the Shroud of Turin Research Project (Sturp), set up by a group of US scientists in the late 1970s. ...
- Schwortz cautions that there seem to be discrepancies between Mattingly's image and the shroud. For instance, the image of Mattingly's face is distorted by the wrap-around effect of the cloth, but the image on the shroud is not. ...
- Having examined the shroud, Sturp concluded in 1981 that it contained no pigments, paints, dyes or stains, and that the image was probably created by oxidation and dehydration of the cellulose fibres of the linen itself. ...
- Even more contentious, however, is Mattingly's claim that microbes skewed the shroud's radiocarbon date - the claim on which his theory depends. The fragments of the shroud he has seen, he says, are "completely coated" with bacteria, just like any piece of dirty old linen might be. ...

- Very small samples from the Shroud of Turin have been dated by accelerator mass spectrometry in laboratories at Arizona, Oxford and Zurich. ... The results provide conclusive evidence that the linen of the Shroud of Turin is mediaeval. ...
- The Shroud of Turin , which many people believe was used to wrap Christ's body, bears detailed front and back images of a man who appears to have suffered whipping and crucifixion. ... After many journeys the shroud was finally brought to Turin in 1578 where, in 1694, it was placed in the royal chapel of Turin Cathedral in a specially designed shrine. ...
- Photography of the shroud by Secondo Pia in 1898 indicated that the image resembled a photographic 'negative' and represents the first modern study. Subsequently the shroud was made available for scientific examination, first in 1969 and 1973 by a committee appointed by Cardinal Michele Pellegrino 1 and then again in 1978 by the Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP)2. Even for the first investigation, there was a possibility of using radiocarbon dating to determine the age of the linen from which the shroud was woven. The size of the sample then required, however, was ~500cm, which would clearly have resulted in an unacceptable amount of damage, and it was not until the development in the 1970s of small gas-counters and accelerator-mass-spectrometry techniques (AMS), requiring samples of only a few square centimetres, that radiocarbon dating of the shroud became a real possibility. ...
- To confirm the feasibility of dating the shroud by these methods an intercomparison, involving four AMS and two small gas-counter radiocarbon laboratories and the dating of three known-age textile samples, was coordinated by the British Museum in 1983. ...
- Following this intercomparison, a meeting was held in Turin in September-October 1986 at which seven radiocarbon laboratories (five AMS and two small gas-counter) recommended a protocol for dating the shroud. In October 1987, the offers from three AMS laboratories (Arizona, Oxford and Zurich) were selected by the Archbishop of Turin, Pontifical Custodian of the shroud, acting on instructions from the Holy See, owner of the shroud. ... The procedures for taking the samples and treating the results were discussed by representatives of the three chosen laboratories at a meeting at the British Museum in January 1988 and their recommendations 4 were subsequently approved by the Archbishop of Turin.

- SI DIGEST & The Shroud of Turin.
- As many of you know, the Shroud of Turin is one of the most remarkable historical artifacts on planet Earth. Believed by many to be the actual burial cloth of Christ, the Shroud has been the subject of intense devotion, exhaustive scientific research, heated debates, and ongoing controversies. Recently, SI DIGEST, the online newsletter of the COMMITTEE FOR THE SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION OF CLAIMS OF THE PARANORMAL (CSICOP), published an article by Joe Nickell about the Shroud of Turin that dismissed the Shroud as "perhaps the world's most notorious religious hoax. " Since CSICOP claims to champion serious scientific investigation, I immediately wrote the editors and asked them to either issue a public retraction concerning the Shroud article they published and/or offer an explanation as to why they ran an article on the Shroud that was so blatantly biased and uninformed. In case they weren't aware of the serious scientific investigation that has been, and continues to be conducted on the Shroud, my letter also included information from the Shroud of Turin Website (http://www. shroud. ... Schwortz, the Official Documenting Photographer for the SHROUD OF TURIN RESEARCH PROJECT, INC. ...
- They responded by clarifying a sentence in Nickell's story concerning the Shroud being part of a phoney faith-healing scheme to bilk credulous pilgrims (Nickell's, according to the editors of SI DIGEST, was referring to what took place in the 14th century, not what is taking place now in Turin). The SI DIGEST editors also included a longer article by Nickell, which elaborated on Nickell's current Shroud views. After sharing the longer Nickell article with Schwortz -- one of a handful of people on the planet who actually studied the Shroud in person with a team of highly-trained scientific experts -- Schwortz offered a more thorough rebuttal of Nickell's scholarship and views.

- Faking the Shroud.
- Was the camera obscura, the forerunner of the modern camera, used to produce the Turin Shroud? There are many substances in nature that are sensitive to light, although exposure times of several days would have been necessary.
- Studies by the American Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP).
- For some, the Shroud image is simply the result of a miracle. This view is even taken by some scientists who have studied the Shroud, such as STURP’s John P. ...
- The nearest parallel to the Turin Shroud is Our Lady of Guadelupe in Mexico city, an image of the Virgin Mary that is said to have appeared on the cloak of a native Mexican in the 16th century. ...
- Where the Shroud is concerned, however, many of those who believe it to be miraculous also argue that science can be used to prove that the miracle happened, in particular by showing that the cloth really is 2000 years old (which means that they have to reject the results of the 1988 carbon dating). ...
- One the earliest scientific theories put forward to explain the Shroud image was that it was formed through a chemical reaction between the cloth and the body it wrapped. ...
- The most recent proponents of this theory are Holger Kersten and Elmar Gruber, who believe that Jesus (who they think was still alive when he was placed in the Shroud) was coated in a healing ointment containing myrrh and aloes. Vignon in his day, and Kersten and Gruber in the 1990s, carried out experiments to produce Shroud-like images using their processes. The results do reproduce some of the Shroud’s characteristics, such as the colour, but not all. ...
- The American Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP) looked for the residue of chemical by-products and did not find them.
- Early advocates of the theory did not have the benefit of the data collected by the scientific examinations of the 1970s, and so did not realise that the processes that they proposed did not reproduce some of the Shroud image’s most important characteristics, such as the fact that the image is on one side of the cloth only. ...
- This is particularly noticeable on the face, which on the Shroud is, if anything, unusually thin. ...
108. Book Reviews: Gove, Harry

- Carbon Dating the Shroud of Turin .
- The Shroud of Turin made its first recorded appearance in the 1350's in the town of Lirey, France. ... Since then, many people have believed that the Shroud is the burial cloth of Jesus Christ and the image is that of Jesus. ... In any case, critical inquiry into the Shroud through the centuries has had little impact on peoples' belief in its authenticity. ... A sample of the cloth could be taken, and if the age was significantly less than 2000 years, then the Shroud must be a fake, for it's hard to see how even God could contrive to wrap a man in a cloth that didn't yet exist. If the age should prove to be around 600 years, then it would be reasonable to conclude that the original investigation conducted in the fourteenth century had in fact uncovered the truth about the Shroud. However, the test required damaging the cloth, and the Church was understandably reluctant to submit the Shroud for testing. In 1978 an unprecedented opportunity arose to study the Shroud scientifically. For five days a team of scientists known as STURP (Shroud of Turin Research Project) subjected the Shroud to a variety of tests. Unfortunately, almost nothing was learned from this, and the project was seriously marred by the team's lack of objectivity: most of the members were already devout believers in the Shroud's authenticity. ... This was the technique that ultimately was used to establish the age of the Shroud. Relic, Icon or Hoax? Carbon Dating the Turin Shroud by Harry Gove, is a documentary of the testing.
- Gove mentions a rumor that the Shroud had been secretly carbon dated prior to the documented tests, an astonishing possibility that I don't believe (and neither does Gove). ...
- At one point during the five days in 1978 that STURP had the Shroud, fanatics ran in from the street and placed their bodies up against it! .
- Page 283 contains a mysterious and tantalizing statement implying that Umberto, last king of Italy, exiled to Portugal, had known for a long time the Shroud was a forgery. ...
- By far the most important aspect of this book, and I can recommend it for inclusion in a skeptic's library on this basis, is that it lays bare the steps taken to achieve the dating of the Shroud. ...

- Kenneth Stevenson, a fascinating and accomplished young man, who shared with me the remarkable evidence about the mysterious Shroud of Turin. Previously, like many other Christians, I had ignored the claims that the Shroud of Turin could possibly be the actual burial garment of Jesus Christ on the basis that it appeared to be only a Catholic "relic. " In addition, the well publicized claims that the 1988 radioactive carbon 14 dating tests suggested that the Shroud was woven approximately A. ...
- Far from repudiating the possibility that the Shroud of Turin is the genuine burial cloth of Christ, Dr. ... It was fascinating to examine the reports that suggested the 1988 carbon 14 dating tests were inaccurate and that all C-14 radioactive tests on antique objects needed to be redone after stripping the biological bacteria contamination that accumulates on these old objects such as fibers from the Shroud.
- In 1978 Ken became the official spokesman for the Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP), the major scientific project to evaluate the Shroud using the most comprehensive scientific techniques available. For a number of years this team of almost fifty American scientists examined the Shroud utilizing the most modern equipment and technologies available to probe its ancient secrets. ... Conference of Research on the Shroud of Turin. ... Ken continues his in depth studies about the Shroud of Turin and remains in close contact with many of the scientists and researchers who are carrying out additional studies about the Shroud. He authored two great books about the Shroud of Turin, The Verdict on the Shroud (1981) and The Shroud and the Controversy (1991) with co-author Gary R. ... Ken has presented the latest discoveries and theories that have been recently developed regarding the origin of the Shroud. This new book, Image of the Risen Christ, will answer your questions about the latest research on the Shroud and assist you in coming to your own determination of the true nature of this ancient burial cloth.
- I am impressed with Ken's balanced and fair evaluation of the evidence both for and against the possibility that the Shroud may be the actual burial garment of Jesus. While rejecting the tendency of a few to elevate the Shroud to an object of faith, Ken understands that, in our increasingly sceptical generation, the latest remarkable scientific and historical evidence about the Shroud of Turin has the capacity to awaken a profound interest in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ on the part of normally indifferent citizens.
- Kenneth Stevenson provides the most balanced, comprehensive, and in depth analysis of the unfolding scientific and historical evidence that bears on the question of whether or not the Shroud of Turin could actually be the true burial garment of Jesus of Nazareth. ... The Shroud of Turin is controversial. You owe it to yourself to become informed about the fascinating new research that suggests the Shroud may have originated in Israel and may actually date back to the time of Christ.

- There is something about the face on the Shroud of Turin that is "haunting. " When a friend of mine saw the Shroud in the 1990's, he said he felt as if he were standing in God's presence. ... The Shroud has long held the modern world in suspense concerning its origin. What is it about the Shroud that has people on their seat's edge waiting for evidence of its authenticity? Isn't it because Jesus Christ has been and always will be the single most controverted figure in history? Isn't it because so many have come to Christ through the Shroud? Anyone else's burial cloth would simply not matter as much. From the historical perspective, the earliest documentation of the Shroud in the West is from a 13th century letter. ... This, in itself, was sufficient for some to consider the Shroud an artifact of the period. However, recent investigations show a link between the Shroud and the cloth of Edessa, a linen which had been in the keeping of the Eastern Church until the 13th century. ...
- This tetradiplon fold was applied to a life-sized copy of the Shroud to see what would result. Astonishingly, it reduced the Shroud to the same oblong shape of the Mandylion with the face resulting exactly in the center. More importantly, John Jackson, who was one of several physicists that physically examined the Shroud in 1978, used special raking light photography to reveal ancient fold marks on the Shroud. He found persistent creases exactly where expected and in the correct folding direction for just such a tetradiplon folding, once more linking the Shroud to the Mandylion. The Shroud appeared in the West after the barbarian sack of Constantinople. ...
- This explains why the Shroud's history in the West begins to be documented only in the 13th century, soon after the disappearance of the Mandylion in the East. ... It is a more than reasonable assumption that the Shroud of Turin is the same as the Edessa cloth or Mandylion. ...

- On November 24, 1973, the exiled King Umberto, who owned the famous shroud, granted permission to Cardinal Pelligrino to allow a small group of eleven people to examine the relic on close inspection and gather samples for testing. ...
- During the inspection of the cloth, Professor Gilbert Raes of the Ghent Institute of Textile Technology was allowed to collect two samples from the shroud to be examined under an electronic microscope. ...
- According to Gove, the samples taken by Raes showed, "that there were trace amounts of Egyptian cotton present" in the make-up of the shroud. Wilson stated that the samples taken from Frei were found to have traces of pollen from plants indigenous to Israel and Turkey, suggesting that the shroud "must have been exposed to the air in these countries. " Incredibly, Frei stated that there was a real possibility that the shroud originated from the time of Christ. ... It would take much more sophisticated equipment to date the shroud. ...
- In the fall of 1978, a group of scientists formed a team whose main goal was to gather scientific data and perform experiments on the Turin Shroud. The undertaking would later be popularly referred to as STURP or the Shroud of Turin Research Project, Inc. Scientists working on STURP would eventually make history by performing the most detailed investigation ever conducted in the shroud's history.
- Turin's Royal Palace.
- Some of the members of STURP, including a group of 24 scientists from the United States, Switzerland and Italy, gathered together in Turin's Royal Palace in October 1978 to perform a five-day uninterrupted examination of the shroud that had mystified the world for so long. During the investigation the shroud was photographed extensively, x-rayed, unstitched for closer examination and vacuumed for dust and pollen samples. After 120 hours of gathering samples and inspecting the cloth with great scrutiny, the shroud was returned to its place behind the altar in the chapel.
- That same year, world-renowned micro analyst and member of the STURP team, Walter McCrone began examinations on approximately thirty-two particle and fiber samples taken from various portions of the shroud. ... More than half of the samples taken from the shroud, including those from the areas of the body and where there was allegedly blood, were found to have a significant amount of pigment made up of iron oxide and tempera. ...

- The history of the Shroud, beginning 1357 CE, is more certain than its earlier history. ...
- It is the story of Shroud since its first known appearance in Lirey, France up to the present. It is during this period that the Shroud was damaged by fire and subjected to photographic, scientific and historical scrutiny. ...
- Geoffrey II de Charny first displayed the Shroud in a church in Lirey, France, in 1357. In 1389, Bishop Pierre D'Arcis of Troyes charged, in a memorandum to Pope Clement VII, that the Shroud was a forgery. He states that his predecessor, Bishop Henri of Poitiers has determined that the Shroud was a forgery because the image was not mentioned in the Gospels, that an investigation by Bishop Henri showed it to be a cunning painting, and that an unnamed artist had confessed. No evidence is presented, the forger is not named, and there is no other evidence that Bishop Henri ever investigated the Shroud's authenticity.
- Margaret de Charny, deeded the Shroud to the House of Savoy in 1453. ...
- As a result of Pope Sixtus IV acknowledging his personal belief that the Shroud was the real burial cloth of Jesus, the Savoy family built a special chapel for the Shroud in Chambery, France in 1464.
- In 1532, a fire in the chapel of Chambery Castle, where the Shroud was kept, damaged the Shroud. Molten silver from the reliquary that contained the Shroud, and water used to extinguish the fire, caused permanent damage to the cloth. ... The image on the Shroud was not seriously damaged and the cloth was rewoven and patched by the Poor Clare Nuns. This fire is significant not only for the permanent damage caused to the Shroud but for its effects on modern day scientific investigation. ...
- The Savoys moved the Shroud to Turin, Italy in 1578 so that Cardinal Charles Borromoe, who had decided on a pilgrimage by foot to see the Shroud, would be saved from a journey over the Swiss Alps. Except for being hidden during World War II in the Abbey of Montevergine in Avellino, Italy, the Shroud has remained in Turin.

- One of the most controversial claims concerning the Shroud image is that it contains "3-D information" that allows a picture of the man whose body it wrapped to be reconstructed using nothing more than the image itself. ...
- If true, this is a highly significant characteristic of the Shroud image. ...
- The 3-D claim was first made in 1976 by two physicists, and Shroud enthusiasts, who were working for the United States Air Force, Drs John Jackson and Eric Jumper. ...
- The American Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP).
- Jackson and Jumper’s claims have gone largely unquestioned, by believers and sceptics alike, and are now part of the accepted facts about the Turin Shroud. ...
- However, in the early 1990s, during their research into the Shroud, Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince decided to test this claim with the assistance of an image analysis expert and modern image processing software. ...

- Speaking of screaming, I was about ready to do so when new claims about the Shroud of Turin appeared all over the place (including an AP story in the State Journal-Register, 8/3). ... , show that this thing originated between 1290 and 1390; it doesn’t matter that it didn’t show up anywhere until 1355; it doesn’t matter that there is a letter from Bishop Pierre d'Arcis to Pope Clement VII, in 1389, notes that the shroud is a "clever sleight of hand" and that the person who brought it forward is "falsely declaring and pretending that this was the actual shroud in which our Savior Jesus Christ was enfolded in the tomb" and that he did so "so that money might cunningly be wrung" from the people who would come to see it. I guess all of these dates are just a big coincidence, because somebody found pollen on the shroud. ...
- He said that he studied pollen grains from the shroud, and they point to Jerusalem around the year 800.
- Frei’s tape-lifted samples from the Shroud were controversial from the outset since similar samples taken by the Shroud of Turin Research Project in 1978 had comparatively few pollens. As it turned out, after Frei’s tapes were examined following his death in 1983, they also had very few pollens -- except for a particular one that bore a suspicious cluster on the ‘lead’ (or end), rather than on the portion that had been applied to the shroud. ...
