Abstract: It has been conjectured that every algebraic curve may be defined either over its field of moduli or over an extension of degree two of it. In this paper we provide a negative answer to it by giving examples of hyperelliptic curves which cannot be defined over an extension of degree at least two over their fields of moduli.
