Who killed the Kritios Boy?

One sculpture that I have always enjoyed, and was thrilled to see in person at the (new) Acropolis Museum was the Kritios Boy. A little blurb, concerning who committed the axe blow to the back of the neck, its dating and relationship to the findspot.

Jeffrey Hurwit

I could not find the other article by Andrew Stewart, but I did have a chance to meet/drink ouzo with him in Athens:)
