English: Dead Sea scrolls shown in Amman Archoelogy Museum (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
One of the most important archaeological finds of the 20th century
is now available for all to see online after the Israel Antiquities
Authority and Google digitised the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Anyone with an internet connection will now be able to take a new
look into the Biblical past through an online archive of
high-resolution images of the 2,000-year-old Dead Sea Scrolls
completed by the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) and Google.
The scrolls, most of them on parchment, are the oldest copies of
the Hebrew Bible and include secular text dating from the third
century BC to the first century AD.
