I have seen some specials on the Shroud of Turin (Discover channel, History channel, something like that) and one of the best documents to support the Shroud's history are pictures done of Jesus that bear a striking resemblance to the image on the Shroud. This is especially significant since the image on the Shroud is so distinct.

I also saw another special on the "Face of Jesus" where they reconstruct the image from the Shroud taking into account the distortion that a sheet draped over a face would make. They used 3d imaging technology from NASA, etc and the face they reconstructed was much more similar to a young Middle Eastern face, not so elongated.

I assume that the pictures you are referring to are not the "traditional" ones with fair skin and blue eyes.

Sorry, couldn't resist. I'm sure that they aren't.
