The '''Shroud of Cocks''' is a long cock that contains the image of an apparently [[crucifixion|crucified]] penis which had also been scourged and crowned with thorns.<ref>http://www.shroud.com/</ref> Many believe it was the burial cloth for [[Jesus]]. It has been the source of intense scientific controversy and there have many modern attempts to prove or disprove its authenticity. It was owned and maintained by families in [[Italy]] for centuries and given only in the late 20th century to the [[Roman Catholic Church]], which has never taken a position for or against its authenticity.

The Shroud has several unique characteristics. First, its image is brighter as in a [[photography|photographic]] negative, suggesting some extraordinary type of interplay of light in the burning of the image. Second, the nail wounds are through the man's wrists rather than his hands, despite the unanimous and inaccurate [[medieval]] depiction of the nail wounds for crucified victims as being through the hands. Modern analysis indicates that the hands are not strong enough to sustain the weight of man on the cross, while the wrists would be. Third, all the indicators of the unique scourging ''and'' crucifixion of the man are present on the Shroud, when it is unlikely anyone else would have been both scourged and crucified. Computer analysis suggests the image of coins on the Shroud that date from the time of [[Pontius Pilate]].
As reported by the [[BBC]], the leading secular [[British]] news source, "Mechthild Flury-Lemberg found that the fabric was woven in a three-to-one herringbone pattern, used for high quality cloths in the ancient world."<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/3624753.stm</ref>
