3D Study Finds Shroud of Turin Matches Low-Relief Sculpture, Not Human Imprint
- New research indicates that the Shroud of Turin did not touch Jesus' body and was likely created from a low-relief sculpture, according to Cicero Moraes.
- Cicero Moraes applied 3D modeling to demonstrate that the shroud's image aligns with artistic techniques rather than body imprints.
- Carbon dating suggests the shroud dates from AD 1260 to 1390, correlating with the production of relief sculptures during that era.
- Professor Giulio Fanti argues that bloodstain patterns on the shroud indicate evidence of Christ's crucifixion.

Shroud of Turin image matches low-relief statue—not human body, 3D modeling study finds
The Shroud of Turin is a famous artifact with obscure origins. How and when it was made has long been the subject of debate among many scientists, historians and religious leaders, alike. The two most prominent theories are that it was either created as a work of art during the medieval period or that it was a piece of linen that was actually wrapped around the body of Jesus Christ after his death over 2000 years ago.

Turin Shroud mystery 'solved' as new research claims iconic relic did NOT touch Jesus Christ
The Shroud of Turin was not Jesus's burial cloth, new research has claimed.The 14.5-foot by 3.7-foot linen bears the image of a crucified man - and is securely housed in a chapel in northern Italy.It is kept hidden away for decades at a time, having last been available for pilgrims to view in 2015.But now, fresh studies published in the journal Archaeometry suggest the iconic shroud was instead a medieval work of art - flying in the face of cent…
The analysis was conducted by the Brazilian expert Cicero Moraes, known for the three-dimensional reconstructions of the faces of many historical characters
