| has gloss | eng: The Hawkstone Grail is a small stone cup located at Hawkstone Manor in Shropshire, England that is purported to be a Holy Grail by owner Graham Phillips. According to Phillips, archaeologists and historians at the British Museum have identified it as a first century Roman scent jar. However, Phillips cautions that this is not the cup that Jesus apostles reputedly drank from during the Last Supper because its small size makes it a poor choice for that use. Rather, he believes that this cup could instead have been used to collect a small amount of Jesus blood as he was dying on the cross or ointments for his body during his temporary internment in the tomb. |
