The recently detected X-ray emission from the remnant of the A.D. 1006 supernova is interpreted in terms of blast-wave and reverse-shock models. It is found that while either model can provide a consistent explanation for the observations, the reverse-shock description leads to more reasonable values for the interstellar density and blast energy. Interestingly, both models indicate a distance of about 1.2 kpc for the remnant.
