According to Christian traditions, the Tomb of Jesus was the resting place of Jesus after his crucifixion.
Overview
See Jesus of Nazareth -- Burial of Jesus
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem
Since the 4th century the Church of the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem marks the traditional site of the Golgotha and the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea where Jesus was deposed after his crucifixion. Christian tradition claims that when the women came after the festival they found the tomb open and empty of the body of Jesus.
The Garden Tomb
An alternative site for the Tomb of Jesus is the so-called Garden Tomb at Jerusalem, outside the Damascus Gate. The site was "identified" in 1883 by Major-General and evangelist Charles George Gordon as the place of Golghota and purchased by British Christians (Protestants have no properties at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre). An ancient tomb at the site was identified as the family tomb of Joseph of Arimathea, where Jesus was buried after the crucifixion.
Apart from a vague resemblance with the places described in the Gospel narrative, there is no archaeological evidence or historical documentation connecting the site to Jesus.
The Tomb of Jesus in Srinagar, Kashmir, India
The proponents of the theory that Jesus did not die on the cross but left Palestine to spend the last years of his life in India (see Jesus in India), claim that the actual burial place of Jesus (Roza Bal) can still be visited in Kashmir.
The Tomb of Jesus in Shingō, Aomori, Japan
In 1933 some Hebrew documents detailing the arrival of Jesus in Japan were allegedly "rediscovered" and translated, before they were seized by the Japanese authorities and disappeared. The documents led to the identification of Jesus' resting place at Shingō (新郷村), a village located in the Sannohe District of south-central Aomori Prefecture in the Tōhoku region of Japan.
The Talpiot Tomb at Jerusalem
In 2007 Simcha Jacobici made the sensational announcement of the discovery of the family tomb of Jesus at Talpiot, near Jerusalem. In 2012 the claim was reiterated; the exploration of a nearby family tomb allegedly revealed some references to the belief in the resurrection of Jesus. The theory is rejected by most scholars (see Craig Evans' response).
