1949 DISCOVERY OF DEAD SEA SCROLLS QUMRAN CAVES WEST BANK
The Dead Sea Scrolls (also the Qumran Caves
Scrolls) are ancient Jewish religious manuscripts that
were found in the Qumran Caves in the Judaean
Desert, near Ein Feshkha on the northern shore of
the Dead Sea in the West Bank. Scholarly consensus
dates these scrolls from the last three centuries
BCE and the first century CE. The texts have
great historical, religious, and linguistic significance
because they include the second-oldest known
surviving manuscripts of works later included in the
Hebrew Bible canon, along with deuterocanonical
and extra-biblical manuscripts which preserve
evidence of the diversity of religious thought in late
Second Temple Judaism. Almost all of the Dead Sea
Scrolls are held by the state of Israel in the Shrine of
the Book on the grounds of the Israel Museum, but
ownership of the scrolls is disputed by Jordan and
Palestine.
