Even if they told the truth it is meaningless since, as demonstrated with the infamous James ossuary box, there are many of these floating around, passed off as genuine, and even if genuine according to name they are not genuine according to name’s sake.
Also, if you knew about this old story you would know the following: 1) Fr. Bellarmino Bagatti first published a report of the supposed find in Liber Annuus III, (1953) pages 149-184. 2) Fr. Milik then took the report and published it at greater length five years later as Gli Scavi del Dominus Flevit. 3) In that book, Milik wrote that, “The reading proposed in Liber Annuus III, p. 162 (Hebrew text) remains possible, but other possibilities for it can equally be proposed...” 4) You might want to look here before you start posting things about an italian book written from an article, neither of which you’ve read: http://www.uhl.ac/blog/?cat=3
These artifacts are under the control of the Israeli Antiquities Authority which is able to discern between genuine and fakes ---- something that the magisterium in the Vatican seems incapable of with all of its Peter bones floating around. And the Israelis know how to read Hebrew inscriptions on ossuaries quite well ---
