Historical inquiry and science aims to uncover probable past events, recognizing that historians' subjective perspectives and worldviews inevitably influence interpretation. Despite these biases, robust methodologies allow for reliable historical conclusions. The "minimal facts" approach focuses on historical occurrences widely accepted by a diverse range of scholars, including atheists, agnostics, and skeptics. This method prioritizes strong, independent evidence for each fact, without requiring prior belief in the supernatural or the general reliability of ancient texts. These sources collectively examine the authenticity and scientific properties of the Shroud of Turin and the Sudarium of Oviedo, two relics believed to have been associated with Jesus Christ's crucifixion and burial.
