SIDEBAR: "In the late 1920s and at the time Rene Dussaud was curator at the Louvre, the Glozel affair was a subject of heated controversy. Claude and Emile Fradin who made the discovery of an underground chamber in March 1924 were accused by Dussaud in December 1927 of forgery, after reports suggested that the site with the exception of some pieces was fake. The Fradins filed lawsuit for defamation against Dussaud in January 1928, and Dussaud was convicted of defamation in a trial in 1932." [Wikip.].
