THE PSALM 83 THAT WASN'T: Art Daily describes how the mistake about the bog Psalter came about and includes the original press release. It's ironic that this time, when journalists went to the effort to look up a biblical reference in a press release, it led to this huge mixup.

UPDATE: Meanwhile, Sploid furthers the mixup by misunderstanding that the psalm visible in the bog codex was the English Bible's Psalm 82 (it was actually Psalm 84) and drawing some rather creative conclusions about gods from outer space.
