The Iranian silver griffin
Suzan Mazur has added some further information about the silver griffin returned to Iran ("ICE "Incompetence" In Iranian Griffin Debacle", scoop.nz October 15, 2013). She also quotes from an email by Peter Northover relating to the analysis of the griffin. [Northover also analysed the Cleveland Apollo.]
Oscar Muscarella responds and suggests that Northover's report "hangs in the air" and has "no scientific value".
