Please be aware that throughout the centuries there are and have been plenty of scientists and religious prominence openly expressing their views that the Shroud of Turin is a fake. This blog post is not about whether or not the shroud is fake, but to share the study examining the blood on it and determining its type.

The claim was that Jesus’ blood type was AB-.

How should we know?

The Shroud of Turin.

It was actually tested and the results were blood type AB.

Rh factor was NOT indicated.

Various relics ascribed to have been in physical contact with Jesus have been evaluated for the presence of blood, including the Tunic of Argenteuil, the Sudarium of Oviedo, and most famously, the Shroud of Turin. Congruence was reported for certain bloodstain patterns that overlap between relics, suggesting that they may have been associated with the same person. Interestingly, in all cases the blood type was found to be AB, which has also been described for certain Eucharistic miracles. Here, we discuss the theological and scientific significance of shared blood type and comment on the scientific validity of these findings.
