Qumran was an archaeological site located near the Dead Sea in Israel, best known for its association with the Dead Sea Scrolls, a collection of ancient Jewish texts discovered in the nearby caves in the late 1940s and early 1950s. It is believed to have been home to a Jewish sect, often identified as the Essenes, who lived in a communal and ascetic lifestyle during the Second Temple period. The site features ruins of a settlement, including ritual baths and a complex of scriptoriums where texts were copied and preserved. Qumran provides significant insights into the religious practices and beliefs of Jewish groups during this era.
