10. THE SPEAR OF DESTINY
In the Christian religion, the crucifixion of Jesus Christ of Nazareth is one of the most important moments of the Bible. One key moment came several hours into the crucifixion, when a Roman soldier pierced Jesus’s side or heart with a lance or spear, depending on the version of the story.
8. THE SHROUD OF TURIN
After Jesus died on the cross, his body was prepared for burial according to contemporary religious customs, which included draping a shroud over him. While the body of Christ has never been discovered, a relic called the Shroud of Turin is said to be his actual burial cloth.
7. The Ark of the Covenant
The location of the Ark of the Covenant is perhaps one of the greatest religious accounts say that it was a large gilded case made of wood made to house the stone tablets where the Ten Commandments were written.
6. THE FIRST BUDDHIST SHRINE
The Maya Devi Temple in Lumbini, Nepal, is said to mark the birthplace of Siddhartha Gautama, better known as Buddha. It became one of the Buddhist religion’s most sacred sites by 249 BC.
5. MEDAL OF OUR LADY OF GRACES
Also called the Miraculous Medal, the Medal of Our Lady of Graces is a pendant that was originally manufactured in 1832 based on a design by Saint Catherine Labouré after she witnessed apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Paris, France.
4. THE HOLY RIGHT HAND
Hungary’s first ruler, King Stephen, died in 1038. His body was later resumed for relocation purposes, due to fears that someone had desecrated his remains, or during a canonical investigation, depending on which version of the story you believe.
3. MITHRAISM SANCTUARY
The rise of Christianity in the West is said to have coincided with the rise of another monotheistic religion called Mithraism. However, unlike Christianity, Mithraism is not well-documented. Experts therefore know very little about it, and have relied primarily on the ruins of Mithraic temples to glean the limited information they do have.
2. THE TRUE CROSS
The cross that was used in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ is, without a doubt, one of the most important symbols in the history of Christianity. Yet, nobody seems to know with certainty if the “True Cross” still exists. Rumors and claims regarding fragments of the cross have surfaced from time to time, but the authenticity of any relics has yet to be confirmed.
1. THE HOLY GRAIL
According to most legends, the Holy Grail is the cup that Jesus used in the Last Supper, when he made Communion with the 12 disciples before Judas betrayed him, resulting in his crucifixion. One of the many stories surrounding the Holy Grail states that a man named Joseph of Arimathea used the chalice to collect sweat and blood from Christ after he was crucified.
