The Dead Sea Scrolls, a collection of Jewish texts found in desert caves in the West Bank near Qumran in the 1940s and 1950s, date from the third century B.C. There are slight differences and some of those differences are important,โ said Joe Uziel, head of the antiquities authority's Dead Sea Scrolls unit.

Documentary tries to prove existence of dead Lincoln photo
โI've seen enough of these things to know that this is a whole lot of hysteria about something that is not Lincoln,โ said Harold Holzer, whose 1984 book, โThe Lincoln Image: Abraham Lincoln and the Popular Print,โ traced the 130 known photographs of the former president. Braun goes through a lengthy process herself, consulting with facial recognition experts, medical experts, a ballistics expert, Lincoln scholars and descendants of Ulke. The facial experts said the man in the image had a slight scar under the lip consistent with one Lincoln had. The image has been seen by several people in the community of Lincoln experts and is not believed, Holzer said. In one of the last photographs of Lincoln taken alive, his once-full beard was wispy, almost a goatee, he said.
