    • Synopsis
    • The archaeological discovery of the twentieth century.
      The most ancient Biblical texts in the world.
      Seventy years after their recovery, the Dead Sea Scrolls are still a thought-provoking matter of debate.

      Who wrote those scrolls? Where have they been realized? And how?

      From the stratigraphic excavations to the chemical analysis of the inks, up to the studies performed with the use of particle accelerators: a journey into science, to the discovery of the most interesting investigations carried out on this intriguing archaeological puzzle.

      A fascinating path that will finally unveil all the mysteries of the “Qumran keepers”.
