==Shroud of Turin?==
−
Author Ian Wilson wrote in his history of the [[Shroud of Turin]] that the mandylion may have been the shroud itself, "doubled in four" with the face of the shroud placed prominently, and set inside a laticework frame that showed only the face.  Wilson also drew upon several accounts from Constantinople, such as the ''Codex Vossianus Latinus'' (Q 69) and a 1207 letter from Nicholas Mesarites, in which the mandylion was described as being a full-body burial cloth, and not just the face alone.  Wilson further elaborated that when the mandylion disappeared, it found its way to France under one Geofrey de Charney, one of the Knights Templar, who was the first confirmed owner of the shroud.
