That is correct.
It was only relevant in the search for a perpetrator.


A parallel line of enquiry relates as to when it was perpetrated. This
bears directly on the question of the authenticity of the KRS.


No, tree age and rootmarks are useless as dating-
and authenticity tools and therefore irrelevant in the
KRS discussion.
It was only relevant once for the question if it was
possible that the finder made de KRS in the 27 (?)
preceding years.
If that was possible or not says nothing about the
authenticity of the stone.
