Israeli archaeologists have discovered new fragments of a manuscript of the Dead Sea in the Desert of Judea, first hallazgo in his class in 60 years.
Written mainly in Greek – and not in Hebrew and Aramaic as habitual -, the parchment was revealed containing parts of the book of the 12 minor prophets, including Zacarias and Nahum, informs the Israeli Anti-Predatory Authority, quoted by Haaretz.
It is probable that the new discovery was a missing part of a parchment of the minor prophets discovered in 1952, which included the prophecy of Miqueas concerning the end of the days and the administration of a governor of Belén.
Some of Mar Muerto’s manuscripts constitute the earliest testimony of the biblical text found in the past. It is a collection of 972 manuscripts and the Mayoria dates from the year 250 a. C. al año 66 d. C., before the destruction of the Second Temple of Jerusalem by the Romans in the year 70 d. C.
In the same excavation works, archaeologists have discovered what can be the most ancient canvas of the world.
Hecha de cañas tejidas, la canasta, completa con tapa, nada menos, tiene más de 10.500 años, seguin la datación por radiocarbono de la profesora Elisabetta Boaretto del Instituto de Ciencias Weizmann en Rehovot, dijo la IAA. This is the Neolithic period, before the law of ceramics in the region (the ceramics surgeon in the east of Asia much earlier).
Although the parchments are much slower, the canasta sorevivio all these years are debated to the notorious caloric and the arid of its ubiquity: the caves of Muraba’at in the reserve of Nahal Darga. In addition, it has a large capacity of around 90 to 100 liters, which suggests to archaeologists that quizzes are used for information. Without embarrassment, there is no rest left in the interior to indicate that the former has been abducted.
The topographers will also find the remains of the natural form of a little one, probably a nine, envtelto en tela, as if the huiberan could have a mantle about it or it, dijeron. Complete with a pillow, the body dates from 6,000 years ago, in front of the parchments in a quarter of a mile. LCreated, cremated in fetal position, apparently between 6 and 12 years old, following a preliminary screening performed by Hila May, a doctor of the Tel Aviv University.
Moreover, archaeologists will find a month-long aliyah of the days of the unfortunate revival of Bar Kojba against the novels of 133-135 of our era. The coins are the typical Jewish symbolic symbols of the epoch, like an arrow and a palm tree.
Working in three teams with the orders of the IAA officials Oriah Amichai, Hagay Hamer and Haim Cohen, the investigators also found points of fleas and lances, such as tees, sandals and shoes for the peoples of the revue.
