Treasure of the Dead Sea Scrolls
In 1952, a French archaeologist discovered a Dead Sea Scroll unlike any other. In the back of a cave in Qumran near the Dead Sea, he found the oddity - a scroll written on almost pure copper. It told of more than sixty locations where an enormous quantity of gold, silver, and Temple implements were hidden from the Romans in the first century CE. Was this scroll a map to the treasures from the Second Temple in Jerusalem? Or, was it only half the answer? After sixty years, the mystery will be solved. The race is on to see who will have the insight and skill to correctly translate the Copper Scroll and find the treasure.
