Dead Sea Scrolls at Science Center

Obsessed as I am with events at the Seattle Center, I somehow managed to overlook the fact that the Pacific Science Center is hosting an exhibit on the Dead Sea Scrolls. Discovered in 1947 by a Bedouin goatherd, these ancient texts give us a look at history both spiritual and secular from way, way back. scroll.JPG
The exhibit opened on the 23rd of September and runs through the 7th of January, giving you plenty of time to check out exhibits on the discovery of the scrolls, the science used to determine their authenticity, and, oh yeah, the scrolls themselves. image courtesy Pacific Science Center

    Before seeing PacSci’s beautiful but misleading exhibit, everyone should read this blog — no one should be allowed to get away with pulling the wool over people’s eyes like that.
