In General
Dead
Sea Scrolls and Pottery at Qumran. Dr.
Jan Gunneweg. This is a proposal to study the Qumran Pottery. "The Dead
Sea Provenience Project concerns the Qumran Pottery found in association with
the site and the caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found. The pottery was
submitted to neutron activation analysis (NAA) to learn where the pottery was
made."
The Dead Sea Scrolls Project at the Oriental Institute,
Chicago. "From the
beginning the project developed in several directions. First and foremost,
there was the challenging task of deciphering and translating, from
photographs, the manuscripts from Qumran Cave Four that had previously remained
unpublished. Another aspect has been to explore the overall problem of
identification of the authors of the scrolls and, increasingly, to examine the
specifics of the Khirbet Qumran site and the theory that the manuscripts found
in the nearby caves were composed by a sect ostensibly living there." The
site includes: an introduction, articles and annual reports.
