History emulates art (or possibly the other way around, depending on dates):

A controversial ossuary, which was claimed to have once contained the bones of 
Jesus's brother James, was stored for a while in exactly this way, sitting in 
an apartment in Israel. An artifact such as this is as close to the holy grail 
as we're likely to get.  The US TV programme _6o Minutes_ described the 
discovery this way:

"He opened a small chamber on the roof, and I saw this chamber is a toilet, and 
what I found on top of the toilet, I found the ossuary of James the brother of 
Jesus," says Ganor.
