Treasures of the Copper Scroll
An ancient, unique scroll, fashioned from the purest of copper was unearthed in a cave near the Dead Sea in 1952 and has since, led scholars, including a colorful Texas archaeologist, on a quest for sacred riches. Some believe the inscription was simply a tale while others believed the text held the key to fabled treasures from the Temple of Solomon, including the Ark of the Covenant.
