Simcha Jacobovic, an Israeli television journalist pronounced possession of a pair of nails which “might have been used” in Jesus Christ’s crucifixion.

The nails looked like a pair of small iron spikes with endpoints hammered on one side.

"We're not saying these are the nails. We're saying these could be the nails," said Jacobovic.

In 1990, an Israeli archaeologist found the tomb which appeared to contain the ossuary or bone box of Caiaphas. Caiaphas is the jurist who paved the way for Jesus Christ’s crucifixion.

Two Roman nails were included in the list of the things unearthed in the cave. The nails, which Researchers from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) inventoried, were not measured, sketched or photographed. It was not even part of IAA's vast collection of artifacts.

On the other hand, a similar pair of nails labeled as “mystery nails” was found at the laboratory of Professor Israel Hershkowitz inside Tel Aviv University. According to the forensic expert, the supposed crucifixion nails were found still embedded in the human heel bone it had been driven through.

In Jacobovici’s documentary titled The Nails of the Cross, Hershkowitz says the “mystery nails” appear long enough to have been driven through a hand. But the forensic expert articulates that is all he could assure of them.

The producer of the documentary, which was aired in the Israeli TV and the History Channel, does not find fault in Hershkowitz words.

"When you raise the question of Jesus' crucifixion nails, there should be a lot of skepticism," Jacobovici explained.

Jacobovici has won three Emmys and an Overseas Press Club Award for his masterpieces.
