Shroud of Turin is a 14-foot-long linen cloth with a faint image of a crucified man.

Believers say it was used to wrap the body of Jesus Christ after his crucifixion.

Professor Liberato De Caro , a committed Catholic and a deacon in his local church, rubbished claims that it was produced in medieval times with his recent study.

He said everything on the shroud is 'highly correlated to what the Gospels tell about Jesus Christ and his death'.

Researchers compared the cellulose breakdown in the shroud to other linens found in Israel that date back to the first century .

They concluded that the structural degradations were 'fully compatible' with those of the other linen sample dated to AD 55-74 .

The team also compared the shroud with samples from linens manufactured between 1260 and 1390 AD , finding none were a match.
