John writes that a “handkerchief” covered Christ’s head.

That would be the Sudarium. It is in Oviedo Spain and the blood pattern and type match up with the Shroud.

Sudarium, I Concur. Also the unknown years of the earliest whereabouts of the shroud was documented to have been located in the city/state of Odessa, “Cloth of Odessa” . The Odessian(sp)
king was one of the first high-ranking believers of the Resurrection .
