Holy Blood, Holy Grail: The Secret History of Christ

Description: The book explores the hypothesis that Jesus Christ did not die on the cross but instead survived and had descendants. These descendants, the authors claim, continued through the Merovingian dynasty of medieval France. The narrative weaves together historical, religious, and mythological elements, suggesting that a secret society, the Priory of Sion, has guarded this bloodline. The authors propose that the Holy Grail, traditionally thought to be the cup used by Christ at the Last Supper, is actually a metaphor for this bloodline. The book also speculates on the connections between various historical events, secret societies, and religious artifacts, presenting a complex conspiracy theory that challenges orthodox Christian beliefs. "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" became widely known for its radical theories and has influenced various other works, most notably Dan Brown's bestselling novel "The Da Vinci Code."
