The Dead Sea Scrolls are named after the location where they were discovered, near the Dead Sea in the Qumran region of Israel, in the late 1940s and early 1950s. These ancient manuscripts, dating from the third century BCE to the first century CE, contain texts related to Jewish history, religion, and culture. The name reflects both their geographical association and the fact that many of the scrolls were found in caves, often in a state of preservation that suggests they had been hidden away, possibly during times of conflict.
