Titulus Crucis (Latin for "Title of the Cross") is a piece of wood kept in the Church of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme ("Holy Cross in Jerusalem") in Rome which is claimed to be the Titulus (title panel) of the True Cross on which Jesus was Crucified. Made from Walnut Wood it states: “Jesus the Nazerene King of the Jews” on three lines in Hebrew, Latin and Greek. The Latin reads: “Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum” corresponding with John 19:19 and the initials INRI familiar to Roman Catholics. The Titulus is also mentioned in Mark 15.26 (as the reason of the crucifixion), in Luke 23:38 and in Matthew 27:37. Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine, while on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land Discovered The Title and many other Holy Relics which were donated to this church which she had built about AD 325. It was renovated in 1124 by Cardinal Orso and he had the Relic deposited in a box that bears his seal. The box was apparently forgotten until 1492, when workers restoring a mosaic discovered it hidden behind a brick that was inscribed Titulus Crucis. It was the same day that news reached Rome of the downfall of the Moors in Spain.
