Abstract

A Duke university professor claims that 30 to 40 percent of all inscribed materials in the Israel museum in Jerusalem have been forged. All leading epigraphers - past and the present-including Israel's most prominent epigrapher Professor Joseph Naveh, and America's most prominent epigrapher Professor Frank Cross do forge.
