Artifacts aged by sinking in water? Soapstone is non-porous—won't change color. 10 days per fake × 2500 = 68 years, but only 3 years passed between 1880 and 1883. ❌

Key facts
- Emmer claimed artifacts were immersed in water to make them look old
- Soapstone is non-porous and would not change color when immersed in water
- The claim that items could be aged by sinking in water for a few days is physically impossible
- A figurine maker claimed he could produce fake artifacts in 10 days each
- 2500 artifacts at 10 days each would require 68 years to manufacture
- The time between excavation (1880) and Emmer's investigation (1883) was only 3 years
- Materials found include non-local items: sandstone, mica schist, copper, shell - not all local as claimed
