Dead Sea Scroll to go on display

by Hannah Tooley

According to the Daily Mail the 2,000 year old Dead Sea Scroll will be part of a new exhibition 'A Brief History of Humankind', which has opened at Jerusalem's Israel Museum.

It also features a tool thought to be around a million years old that could have been used for elephant hunting and a manuscript detailing part of Albert Einstein's theory of relativity.

In June the scroll will be replaced with a copy so that it can be returned to a secure, dark, climate-controlled environment to stop it from disintegrating.

The manuscript was found near the Dead Sea and it is the first time that it will be shown at the museum.

The Ten Commandments first went on public display in Washington DC in 1993 and has features in 21 exhibitions across the world since.

It has only appeared in the UK once in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum 17 years ago.
