The Sudarium of Oviedo

I saw a fantastic documentary about the Turin Shroud called Secrets of The Dead and it did mention the Sudarium. Tests on the blood on the Sudarium found that it is the same blood found on the Shroud and it does have a clearer past than the Shroud. But why does it have to be the shroud of Jesus, because he wasn't the only man who was crucified at the time, now was he?

But why does it have to be the shroud of Jesus, because he wasn't the only man who was crucified at the time, now was he? You certainly have a good point, but who would keep a bloody cloth if it was from a common thief? Since the Sudarium had so much importance to keep it safe and even smuggled out of Palestine, for any follower, this is very convincing and compelling to believe it might have been used for Christ.

Tests on the blood on the Sudarium found that it is the same blood found on the Shroud and it does have a clearer past than the Shroud. And since the shroud of Turin has been proven to be from mediaeval times, this means that the Sudarium cloth must also be a fake.

I have seen the Sudarium in person. Mentioned in John 20:5-7. It came to Spain via the Roman Port of Sagunto, to Toledo, and in 711 when the Muslims invaded to the Cathedral of Oviedo.

That's not the Downward Spiral cover? Ya sure?
