Das Monogramm Karls ‘des Einfältigen’ (+923) ist identisch mit demjenigen Karls ‘des Großen’ (748?-814?). Nicht zu unterscheiden sind auch die Münzen beider Herrscher.
"Not less interesting to me will be an understanding of the psychological causes that led the great majority of investigators to deny, for many years, the existence of regular deviations of the 14C values, so-called ‘wiggles’ from a smooth line, and the fact that a clearly defined spectrum existed. How was it possible that many, in fact the great majority of workers, for nearly 20 years – from before 1970 until close to 1990 – did not recognize the existence of a time spectrum? In general, wiggles were considered non-existent or rare phenomena. There must have been a psychological reason – perhaps the ‘beauty of the smooth line’ or the work of a powerful lobby? In any case, the importance of psychological effects cannot be denied. For this reason, it seems safer if measurement and evaluation of results are not done by one and the same person."

"Die karolingische Fundsituation Aachens unterscheidet sich insofern von der römischen, als in beiden Fällen zwar die monumentalen Ortskerne noch recht gut nachgewiesen werden können, aber der römische vicus wenigstens mit einigen Befunden aufwartet, während sich die vermeintlichen karolingischen vicus-Reste bei genauerem Hinsehen zu nichts verflüchtigen." [Mann, Vicus Aquensis]
