Do you know why does Octavius in the movies have that yellow thing round his neck? is it like an extra layer beneath the armor? I need to know for my fic thanks!

[iamfitzwilliamdarcy]

Dic nobis Maria,  quid vidisti in via?

Sepulcrum Christi viventis,  et gloriam vidi resurgentis

Angelicos testes,  sudarium, et vestes.

Surrexit Christus spes mea:  praecedet suos [vos] in Galilaeam.

Tell us, Mary, what did you see on the way?

The angelic witnesses, the shroud, and the clothes."

Icarian Series: Reliquaries

In the late 1980s the well known San Francisco gym The Muscle System began disposing of many of its leather exercise bench covers. For decades the gym had been a social nexus for the gay male population that would later be decimated by HIV/AIDS. Daniel Goldstein saved almost all of the leather skins of the gym’s workout machines which over the years had been worn smooth and imprinted with the human shapes of the thousands of men who had worked out on them. Icarian II and Angel are two of 28 pieces in this series, named for the Icarian exercise machines from which the leather coverings were taken.

The friction and sweat on each of the leather skins over the years had left markings both indelible and mysterious. Seeing these ghostly images one is reminded of the numinous Shroud of Turin or the Sudarium (literally “sweat-cloth” in Latin), the legendary Veil of St. Veronica that bore the face of Christ. Goldstein lovingly mounted each of these pieces of leather as reliquaries. Icarian II and Angel are both document and memorial to the unique social situation at The Muscle System gym. Here gay men had come together to create communities of erotic love and brotherhood. As HIV/AIDS began to take its toll on many men’s bodies, the regimes of weightlifting and exercise allowed them to maintain a sense of control over their physical well-being.

The Turin shroud and Leonardo da Vinci

There is a interesting thory that says Leonardo da Vinci made the image on the Shroud of Turin, this thory was published in the book below and on a Channel 5 documentary Turin Shroud: How Da Vinci Fooled History.

TURIN SHROUD: How Leonardo da Vinci Fooled History COMPLETELY REVISED AND UPDATED

By the authors of The Templar Revelation Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince

OK let's say leonado did do it, how did he do it, baring in mind there is no paint or other pigments on the cloth and other methods were not available in the medieval period or leonados's day, also what ever made the image, created a negative, 3d imagee this only stained the fist layer of material on the cloth.

So far, the Turin shroud has been dated to two dates so far. The first date was medieval, and the second dated it to the 1st century.

Other tests done on the cloth have shown that the cloth is consistent with 1st century weaving techniques.

The mystery of how the turin shroud was made brings up an interesting fact, someone once offered lots of money to anyone who could solve the mystery of how it was made so far no one has ever come forward with a plausible method, to say how the shroud was made, and no one has ever come up with a plausible method of how the shroud was made so if you can think of a way the shroud was made you could be getting a llot of money.

The shroud is also well documented, including the fact that it was in a fire, and you can clearly see burn marks running down the sides of the shroud.

Also, the theory that Leonardo da Vinci may have made the shroud can not be tested as there is no evidence that Leonardo da Vinci did create the Shroud of Turin even, though he could if he wanted to as he was a genius, but he didn't, if he did, he would have written the fact in his journal which he wrote everything he did in, plus he had nothing to fear in doing so as no one could read it until now as he used a type of code in the form of mirror writing.

Plus, if we go on the first date, which was obtained through carbon dating, the results indicated that it was made in the Middle Ages, between 1260 and 1390 (on a side note these results have now been challenged as we now have a result of 1st century)

The earliest known record of the shroud is on a commemorative medallion from the mid-14th century, long before leonado was born.

The idea that da Vinci created the shroud was popularized by the 2009 Channel 5 documentary Turin Shroud: How Da Vinci Fooled History, the documentary claimed that da Vinci used a camera obscura and a sculpture of his own head to project his face onto the shroud. However, other researchers have dismissed the documentary's findings. as i said already, this theory can not be tested, and it is not a mainstream academic view, as it goes into a more fringe and psudo history type of area,

Also, the shroud is not just an image of a face it is an image of a whole body front and back showing the perfect anatomy of the human body, of course, this may back up the views of the authors who say leonado da Vinci did it as he was a master of anatomy of the human body on the other hand they mentioned that leonado da Vinci used only a head sculpture to make the image Implying that the authors of book marking these claims that leonado da Vinci made the shroud are unaware that the shroud shows the whole body.

This brings up the idea that the authors know nothing about the subject they are debunking. otherwise, they would know what the shroud looks like.

Interestingly enough, there is another shroud called the Veil of Veronica, or the Sudarium that just shows the face of Jesus, but this is not the turin shroud and should not be confused with it

When Jesus's was. buried they may have used two different shrouds, the Veil of Veronica which maybe just went over rhe face and the Turin shroud which went over the whole body so what ever made the image on the turin shroud may have went through another shroud that covered the face to get there, this may have been the Veil of Veronica, or the Sudarium I don't know.

This probably accounts for the confusion in shroud accounts because people think the two. Shrouds already mentioned are the sane shroud and think there is an error or inconsistency in the accounts of the shroud, but really, they are just talking about two different shrouds.

To add to the confusion there is also something called the Sudarium of Oviedo, which does not have a image on it but again this is not the turin shroud and should not be confused as the turin shroud,

(At this point, I am not sure which face shroud they used, but I do know that either of them are the turin shroud).

The earliest historical records of the shroud place it in Lirey, France, 1350s. A French knight named Geoffroi de Charny is said to have presented the shroud to the dean of the church in Lirey as Jesus' burial shroud. As I have said before, the shroud is well documented

Also, as i haave already mentioned we now have a new result that says the shroud dates back to the 1st century, probably due to an error in dating the shroud, the first time as they probably dated medieval contamination or a medieval repair not the shroud itself.

Conclusion

The theory that Leonardo da Vinci made the shroud is fake news and should not be taken seriously, also judging by their other book. The authors of this book that started this theory should not be taken seriously either, as The Templar Revelation is the book that the Dan Brown's the da Vinci code is based on. Both the da Vinci code and the Templar Revelation books are based on fringe theory, otherwise known as psudo historical views, which mainstream historians and academics have rejected and debunked many times.

TURIN SHROUD: How Leonardo da Vinci Fooled History

[apesoformythoughts]

“Not only was there the shroud, intact and collapsed flatter than a cheese soufflé. There was also the face-cloth, set aside. Some exegetes read this verse to mean that the sudarium, or sweat-cloth, that covered the Holy Face was not folded and set aside, outside the strips of cloth, but that it remained inside the shroud, at face level. It seems to me that this interpretation, like some very lofty symbolic interpretations, serves to provide an excellent excuse for not helping with the household chores. It leaves us at the wondrous disappearance, without thinking of what is even still more woundrous, namely, that the first thing the Risen Lord did was to fold and carefully arrange his face-cloth like a napkin after dinner […]

You will probably say that I'm exaggerating. Some want everything to amount to the coarseness of grand spectacle, or a demonstration of power. This is because they probably have not advanced far enough into the mysticism of housekeeping. For what is more in the image of God, along the lines that we have just seen, than keeping house? I will sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweeps away dung until it is all gone, says the Lord through the mouth of the prophet Ahijah (1 Kgs 14:10). And Jesus clears his threshing floor (cf. Mt 3:12), drives the merchants out of the Temple, and washes the feet of his disciples.”

The original church was built by Fruela I the Cruel (757), and then built upon by Alfonso II (791-842). The Tower on the south side of the church was erected in 1556. The north tower was never completed.

Cámara Santa de Oviedo. Dating from 802. It is located within the Cathedral, attached to the southern transept of the cathedral, and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Houses the Arca Santa chest reliquary of the Sudarium of Oviedo. The Cámara Sancta houses many Christian treasures. It contained the great gold and jeweled cross of victory for Alfonso III, which was made for housing a wooden cross used by the first Asturian king, Pelayo. The wooden cross was supposedly used in the Asturian victory at the battle of the Covadonga in 718. The Arca Sancta itself, which is covered with decorated silver plates, was commissioned by Alfonso VI (1072–1109).

Santa María del Naranco Hall, 9th century. A relatively large pavilion, part of a palace complex built for the King Ramiro I.

Lee Wagstaff «formed only by one ` 60 x 80 cm oil and enamel on canvas (😞 LOST). This was supposed to be in the exhibition ‘Line Addicts’ curated by @hifructosemag at @thinkspace_art in LA but is now lost forever thanks @ups . It was made especially for the show. As it is now lost I will tell those who may be interested a little about the piece :

This painting takes as its starting point a reworking of an image of actor/director Dexter Fletcher @dexfletch playing the young Caravaggio in Derek Jarmens film of the same name. The concentric spiral style is 100 % taken from Claude Mellan’s The Sudarium of Saint Veronica (1649) engraving. Mellan used a kind of calligraphic technique known as the ´ swelling line ` where the thickness/ widening of the line is created by the angle of the (engraving) tool. Mellans and my title refers to the mythical image of Saint Veronica’s veil which was emblazoned with Christ’s image via impression, after she blotted the inky blood from his face on road to Calvary. There is something captivating about an image not made by human hand (acheiropoietos) but bestowed to us from on high.
