Shroud of Turin Reproduced

An Italian scientist has reproduced the Turin Shroud using methods available in the Middle Ages. The Shroud was carbon dated and found to originate from about 1325, but many people still believe that it is an actual image of Christ. This new exercise is unlikely to sway the believers, but it does show just how it could have been faked, which is good enough for me!!
