Israel found that the inscription bearing the name of Darius the Great on a Persian pottery shard was inauthentic. Authorities said they determined the misidentification of the artifact had come about"unintentionally and without malice" but described the expert's decision to leave behind the newly inscribed shard as"careless." The piece of pottery was examined in labs and found to be ancient, creating confusion.
