About this title

Synopsis

This is the story of how a professional metallurgist, with a fascination for ancient Jewish and Middle Eastern history, managed to decipher a 2,000-year-old metal scroll whose true meaning has baffled the 'experts' for nearly 50 years - and identified where the fabulous treasures listed in it are hidden.

The Copper Scroll is unique amongst the Dead Sea Scrolls, which record the activities of a secretive Jewish sect - the Qumran-Essenes - who lived by the shores of the Dead Sea at the time of Jesus.

By using his metallurgical knowledge, Robert Feather has identified the connection between the Essenes and the most advanced and rich civilization in the ancient world the Egyptians - a connection which will profoundly challenge our most fundamental beliefs in the origins of the major religions.

The treasure hunt unearths not only vast wealth, but powerful historical truths of immense significance, which will necessitate the re-evaluation of many conventional ideas.

About the Author

Robert Feather trained as a metallurgist and has been working as a technical engineering writer for the past twenty years. He has spent many years studying comparative religion, and has close links with the Dead Sea Scroll team based at Manchester University.
