Technology Opens the Dead Sea Scrolls
Update: 2020-08-19
Description
Technology is providing new tools to help archaeologists and biblical scholars. In this program, we discuss news reports from the latest issue of ARTIFAX, our biblical archaeology newsmagazine, which highlight new innovations. For example, Dead Sea Scroll fragments that were thought to be without writing were found to have words written on them, when they were scanned with multiple wavelengths of light.
In addition we discus some microarchaeology that was used to help pin down the construction date for Wilson's Arch, which supported a walkway from Jerusalem's upper city to the Temple Mount, and is now a feature of the western wall.
