Seven Physical Attributes
Seven physical attributes of the Shroud of Turin are particularly useful for examining historical records:
1) the size of the cloth
2) very faint images
3) apparent bloodstains
4) burn holes commonly known as the poker holes
5) the weave of the cloth
6) particular creases in the fabric
7) two images that look like flowers with petals.
We need to know what the Shroud of Turin looks like, as well, because some of the ancient history is not written at all, but expressed in pictures. Pictures sometimes make for some of the best and most convincing history.
