Jerry Vardaman - a possible motive on the Caesarea Maritima Nazareth fragment, Sinaiticus analogy

Thus, it is possible that Jerry Vardaman (if he was behind the fragment discovery) felt that he was helping along that which was historically true. Just moving it from the dimension of literature to the dimension of archaeology, That type of thinking could be a conscience-balm.

===========


When I went to Caesarea Maritimi, I thought there might be a wonderful plaque listing the 24 courses (there was a sign saying - go to Jerusalem.). I had no idea that the inscription was 3 fragments, one lost, that are only a very small part of the supposed original, and the list shown of the inscription is mostly a reconstruction based on the Klein medieval sources, writing/lyrics.

Too good to be true

Alternate scenario

many coincidences, hints

Checkered reputation, tissues of lies

This also is consistent with the equivvocation noted in his writing, that maybe the Nazareth fragment did not match the other fragmnnts. A neat cover if the attempt blew up, as happened to Simomides in Turkey in 1851.
