Image of my own (beardless!) face, obtained in 2015 via contact imprinting technique, easily realizable in medieval times.
Pre-imprinting! (purely a modern photo as distinct from medieval -type imprint!)

Conflicting definitions of “sindonology”
1. First, from en.wiktionary
“The study of the Shroud of Turin from a believing perspective”
2. Second, from www.dictionary.
“The scientific study of the Shroud of Turin”
Er, they can’t both be right! Indeed they could be said to be pulling in opposite directions!
So why hasn’t sindonology put its house in order by agreeing on a SINGLE DEFINITION?

A solution (at last!) to the Turin Shroud – based on my 5 years of continuous experimental research.
Site banner: see how a simulated sweat imprint (my wet hand pressed down onto dark fabric) responds magnificently to 3D-rendering computer software (ImageJ) before and after tone-reversal (negative back to positive image). Remind you of anything? Like those supposedly “unique” and … Continue reading
Simple physics says there are 7 ways of producing a scorch on linen

Those “unique” 3D properties of the Shroud seem to be proving more of a hindrance than a help to those keen to promote their New Age radiation physics.

Did John Jackson really demolish scorching as a mechanism? Maybe someone could explain to me how (in simple terms)

My answer to the steeped-in-mystique Turin Shroud - evolving gradually from some 10 years of science-based experimental modelling.
