Spectacular Holy Fraudster Debunked
 
The spectacular Russian holy fraudster, Dr. Dmitri Kuznetsov, is in the news again. In Italy, at least, his scientific frauds were well known to those involved in the Turin Shroud research. However, there are always sindonologists who still mention his expemeriments despite his false quotations and affiliations. Unknown archaeological data, institutions and individuals that do not exist, excavations which did not take place are only some of the frauds by Kouznetsov debunked in 2002 by Gian Marco Rinaldi. After his article, and an English summary written by Massimo Polidoro, now W. Meacham has another excellent article titled “The Amazing Dr Kouznetsov” on Antiquity, a British journal on archaeology. It’s a story to strike a chill of anxiety into the hearts of editors and their peer-reviewers. However, the “holy fraudster” is still publishing his papers in scientific journals (see here and here) This may give you an idea of what kind of people have tried (and some are still trying) to discredit the carbon dating of the Turin Shroud. La storia delle frodi Kuznetsov è ben nota in Italia grazie all’indagine di Gian Marco Rinaldi. Ora, la rivista britannica di archeologia Antiquity dà spazio ad un articolo di W. Meacham sulle frodi del paladino dell’anti-C14. Che è ancora citato sul sito del Centro Italiano di Sindonologia di Torino (alla faccia della scientificità...), mentre su quello di Collegamento pro Sindone è sparito il nome ma sono rimasti gli esperimenti. Una sindonologia tutta da ridere.http://www.cicap.org/new/articolo.php?id=100976http://www.csicop.org/si/2004-03/strange-world.htmlhttp://antiquity.ac.uk/ant/081/313/Default.htmhttp://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1182455http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W8G-4F8TK1P-1&_user=10&_coverDate=02%2F01%2F2005&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=8631f0dd7065e787b05b84513fec3194http://www.cicap.org/new/articolo.php?id=100976http://antiquity.ac.uk/ant/081/313/Default.htmshapeimage_1_link_0shapeimage_1_link_1shapeimage_1_link_2shapeimage_1_link_3shapeimage_1_link_4shapeimage_1_link_5shapeimage_1_link_6
