Researchers Find Burial Shroud in Jerusalem Tomb from Jesus Era

A team of researchers said they have found a burial shroud from the time of Jesus in a tomb in Jerusalem, the eCanadaNow website reports today.

The team of researchers from Hebrew University said the shroud is much different from the Turin Shroud. Some people believe the Turin Shroud was used to bury Jesus, while others are convinced it was a fake.

The tomb is located in a section of a Jerusalem cemetery called the "field of blood." This is believed to be the site where one of the 12 apostles, Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus, hanged himself.
