• Abstract:

  There has been much speculation about the true cause of death of Jesus Christ, and this topic has been the subject of discussion by scholars all over the world. The aim of this text is to analyze some of the theories described by different authors about the possible causes of Jesus Christ's death during his crucifixion, without any kind of religious bias. Among the most plausible hypotheses are: asphyxiation, venous thromboembolism and hypovolemic shock. The aim of this review was to collect relevant data from the literature on this subject, which has not yet been elucidated.
