Nine new Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in Israel after lying unopened in storeroom for 60 years
Archaeologists in Israel have rediscovered nine new Dead Sea Scrolls that have lain unopened in a storeroom for around 60 years. The minuscule fragments, each measuring no more than half a centimetre across rolled up, are set to be unravelled by experts from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) - and could provide scholars with significant insights into life in an ancient world. |
