This paper is a response to Piombino-Mascali and Zink’s accusations against our investigation into the story of the research on the Sleeping Beauty of Palermo, the mummy of Rosalia Lombardo (1918-1920). A point-by-point rebuttal shows how their original work was not conducted to the highest scientific standards. They do not report important data and so avoid proper oversight. As a result the paleopathological community cannot be satisfied that their conclusions are robust.

Abstract

This paper is a response to Piombino-Mascali and Zink’s accusations against our investigation into the story of the research on the Sleeping Beauty of Palermo, the mummy of Rosalia Lombardo (1918-1920). A point-by-point rebuttal shows how their original work was not conducted to the highest scientific standards. They do not report important data and so avoid proper oversight. As a result the paleopathological community cannot be satisfied that their conclusions are robust.
