It is certain to have been in Edesa by the 5th Century, but some texts place it there even earlier. The image remained there until 944, when it was solemnly moved to Constantinople. From then on we can deduce that the relic corresponded to a shroud folded in such a way that only the image of the face of Christ was visible. The first mention of the Holy Shroud dates from the l2th Century, in reference to a Byzantine relic; in 1204 the Crusaders sacked Constantinople and stole the relic. The author analyzes the recorded itineraxy of the relic until its arrival at Turin, and proposes that the Holy Shroud of Turin and the relic of Edesa are one and the same.
