University of Iowa assistant professor of classics and religious studies Robert Cargill thinks the story is bogus, saying that there are "clearly handles on the top of the so-called ‘Jonah fish' image, but Tabor and Jacobovici don't include them in their museum replicas or the CGI image: "No credible scholar except those that work with or for Simcha on this or some other project believe his conclusions… The evidence does not support their sensational claims.
