A new documentary is stirring up the next Da Vinci Code controversy — that 10 ancient ossuaries, caskets used to store bones, may include that of Jesus and his family.
According to a press release issued by the Discovery Channel, the documentary, "The Last Tomb Of Christ," produced by Oscar-winning director James Cameron, discovered the tomb in a suburb of Jerusalem in 1980.
One of the caskets bears the title, "Judah, son of Jesus," suggesting that the Christian savior may have had a son; this contradicts the beliefs that Jesus was resurrected and ascended into heaven, and that he did not have a family.
In 1996, the BBC aired a short documentary on the same subject and archeologists challenged the claims, saying that the idea fails to hold by by archaeological standards, but makes for profitable television.
Do you think it's possible that James Cameron discovered the skeleton of Jesus?
