Re: "Archaic Mark" was a forgery

Not to be confused with "Secret Gospel of Mark"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Gospel_of_Mark

"By February Stephen Carlson had announced his findings that the codex [Archaic Mark] was a forgery, and proved his case beyond a doubt at the 2006 Annual Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minuscule_2427

Minute 11:30 of the video is where Wasserman (SBL 2001) says that his aim is to show when and why the forger of "Archaic Mark" used 777, Athens codex 93 as an iconographic model.
