While ancient scrolls hold many secrets, opening the delicate manuscripts is always a tricky endeavor. The situation becomes even worse when they are charred, as was the case with the Ein Gedi scroll, discovered by archeologists at the site of an ancient synagogue in Israel in the 1970’s. The animal skin document that resembled a lump of coal was extremely fragile, and therefore, never opened. However, the curators of the Israel Antiques Authority (IAA) preserved it in the hopes that some day, advances in technology would allow them to read what lay inside. Now thanks to a team led by University of Kentucky professor Brian Seales, that has become a reality.

- COMIX KING8년 이상I never thought we would live to see this type of technology. Goes to show the world is advancing, and we need to advance with it. Soon, all the things you and me will be wrong. Historic scrolls will prove it wrong. Seems like the year 2100, don't you think? We'll have hoverboards (real ones.) by 2030 at this rate. What do you think? Feel free to comment on my comment.
