    Discovered

    Present location
    Various
    The
    Dead Sea Scrolls
    , in the narrow sense of
    Qumran Caves Scrolls
    ,
    are a collection of some 981 different
    texts
    discovered between 1946 and 1956 in eleven caves from the immediate vicinity of the ancient settlement at
    Khirbet Qumran
    in the
    West Bank
    . The caves are located about 2 kilometres inland from the northwest shore of the
    Dead Sea
    , from which they derive their name.
    The texts are of great historical, religious, and linguistic significance because they include the third 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
    . There are only two silver
    scrolls
    which contain biblical text and are older than the Dead Sea Scrolls; The silver scrolls were excavated in Jerusalem at
    Ketef Hinnom
    and date from around 600 BCE. A burnt piece of
    Leviticus
    dating from the 5th century has recently been analyzed and is the fourth oldest piece of the Torah known to still exist.
    Most of the texts are written in
    Hebrew
    , with some in
    Aramaic
    (in different regional dialects, including
    Nabataean
    ), and a few in
    Greek.
    If discoveries from the
    Judean desert
    are included,
    Latin
    (from
    Masada
    ) and
    Arabic
    (from
    Khirbet al-Mird
    ) can be added.
    [6]
    Most texts are written on
    parchment
    , some on
    papyrus
    and one on
    copper.
    The larger consensus is that the Qumran Caves Scrolls date from the last three centuries BCE and the first century CE (see "Age" paragraph in this article and the dedicated site of the
    Israel Museum
    ). Bronze coins found at the same sites form a series beginning with
    John Hyrcanus
    (135–104 BCE) and continuing until the
    First Jewish–Roman War
    (66–73 CE), supporting the radiocarbon and
    paleographic
    dating of the scrolls.
    [8]
    Manuscripts from additional Judean desert sites go back as far as the eighth century BCE to as late as the 11th century CE.
