Background: ARCHAEOLOGISTS UNEARTH TOMB OF GENGHIS KHAN
I will resolve YES if the plurality of academics in related fields (archaeologists, historians, etc.) appear to believe (at any point before the end of 2023) that the tomb in the recent discovery did not in fact belong the Genghis Kahn.
(I am a complete layman with no special expertise in this area and will probably be relying on popular articles to make this judgment. Feel free to post relevant materials below to sway my judgment.)

The linked article is pretty questionable. The image on the page appears on the internet as early as 2013 and is described by the earlier (and more credible) pages as a Sarmatian burial chamber, nothing to do with Genghis Khan. I couldn't find anything credible about a new discovery, but I didn't look too hard. I suspect this is a similar situation to Alexander's tomb where every couple years someone claims to have found it and then it eventually amounts to nothing.
@SG How do you plan to resolve if there is no particular disconfirming evidence, but the plurality of academics still believe it's not Genghis Khan? (i.e. if nobody takes this discovery seriously)
@wasabipesto I would resolve YES, as per the resolution criteria. (The question title might be a little misleading...)
