Very interesting read, George.

When I pulled out my Templars book which I had yet to read until yesterday for your benefit, I read a few chapters and it mentions the relic. I knew exactly what page to go to because I remembered it; I'll type it out for you: Page 27-8

In the wake of this tragedy, Helene-converted to Christianity by Constantine - set out on a penitential journey to Palestine. There Constantine had ordered the demolition of the temples and the construction of churches over the sites of Christ's nativity in Bethlehem, his crucifixion in Jerusalem, and the tomb from which he had risen from the dead. In the course of the excavations 'Jesus Nazareth King of the Jews.' Whether or not this was what it purported to be, or a forgery passed off on a gullible old woman, it was accepted by Helena and faithful Christians as the supreme relic of their Salvation; and, upon its completion, was placed in the church built over the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

The author of this book: Piers Paul Read
The Title: The Templars

If you want the authors of the other books I have read and their titles, let me know.

Be well, be safe,
