The area around the Dead Sea has been inhabited since the neolithic (stone age) and has been known since then. The first of the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered by Muhammed edh-Dhib, a Bedouin nomad in1947 and the rest up until 1956 in eleven caves around the Wadi Qumran on the northwest shore of the Dead Sea.
