What is puzzling is that the hoard seems to be the repository of someone else’s collection or that the field was the site of an earlier dumping ground that had received the refuse of other centuries. I have been reading about this and to accuse a Frenc peasant boy of 17 of counterfeiting authentic looking stone age heiroglyphics is absurd. How would he know? Unless he was in cahoots with the scholarly neighbor there seems no way he would be able to replicate these things. Another thing of interest was that it is possible that carbon 14 testing is not always as reliable as the experts wish us to think. If he was leaked out that this method is not always accurate, then it would cause an uproar amidst the establishment scientific community.

It is a very interesting story..The Economist always does a good obituary..

Why is this news?

Of course, the late M. Fradin is to be hailed and remembered for his interesting find. But really, he merely confirmed what every Frenchman already knows, and over a pastis on your tab, would only be too happy to tell you unfortunate citizens of a lesser place.

Mes amis, did we not already know that la belle France was the center, nay the cradle, nay the Ground 0, of all civilization on this planet?
