What Barsoum and Ganguly said in their 2006 paper (Microstructural Evidence of Reconstituted Limestone Blocks in the Great Pyramids of Egypt, J. Am. Ceram. Soc., 89 [12] 3788–3796 - [
www.academia.edu]) was:
Quote
We believe ... that our work presents enough evidence to entertain the
possibility that crucial parts of the Great Pyramids are indeed
made of reconstituted limestone; only more research will tell. (3795)
As stated here [
irna.fr]:
Quote
This ... conclusion seems to indicate that the research conducted by Barsoum and Ganguly is not sufficient to confirm Mr. Davidovits' hypothesis. (Cette conclusion ... semble indiquer que les recherches menées par Barsoum et Ganguly ne sont pas suffisantes pour confirmer l’hypothèse de M. Davidovits.)
A belief is not quite the same thing as a conclusion.
