* Shroud (in Greek " Sindon " - a linen shroud ) - a piece of linen , which the Jews used to wrap bodies before burial . Thus , the Holy Shroud - a funeral shroud, which , according to the three synoptic Gospels , Jesus' body was wrapped up from Nazareth to the position of the grave .

Ancient Jews and are not wrapped wrapped the body of the deceased. No prints could just as well stay , but the thing is of course a valuable job.
