Synopsis: Sacred relics continue to play an important role in modern culture. In fact, the Holy Grail has been one of the most important myths in Western Civilization. It plays an important role in the bestselling novel "The Da Vinci Code", and in the classic action movie "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade". Other popular novels and films revolve around the Ark of the Covenant and the Spear of Destiny. Most relics are not authentic. One relic, however, may be an actual artifact of Jesus' crucifixion. The Shroud of Turin continues to challenge skeptics and believers alike with its unique and mysterious characteristics. This book combines history, science, myth, and religion to examine the facts and fantasies surrounding sacred relics. This is a study of literature, history, and religion and includes a review of archaeology in the Holy Land, shedding light on ancient mysteries and powerful myths. When it comes to sacred relics, truth can be as strange and fascinating as fiction.
