Copper Scroll Archaeology

If you are interested in Biblical Archaeology then the copper Scroll project is exactly what you have been looking for. The Copper Scroll Project is headeed up by Jim Barfield of Apache Oklahoma.

Jim is an ex-firemarshall from the city of Lawton Oklahoma. He was awarded the international Fire investigator of the year award before taking on the Copper Scroll as his big investigation.

He and Chris Knight are currently in negotiations with the Israel Antiquities Authority for a time to start digging for the lost treasure of the Tabernacle of Moses and of Israel's later conquests.

Shalom everyone!



Chris and I are back home… Sadly we did not get to start the dig or advance the date. As some of you know the dig was scheduled for the first part of December, but with the involvement of an ecologist things got changed to April so Chris and I hoped to convince the ecologist that there was no danger to the environment while doing advance preparations for the dig...but the war put an abrubt stop to that plan. Some people had asked me if the government was holding us up by way of the ecologist intentionally or was it just simply fate. My answer is, it was just fate, nothing more.



Thank all of you that recommended that we take some time for our families…because the last week has been so nice, just relaxing and spending time with my wife and grandchildren adjusting to the jetlag once again. I am in the midst of writing letters, updating our budget expenditures and coordinating speaking engagements.



Yuval and I had met a couple of times at the site where he was doing the emergency excavation. The name, “emergency excavation” means nothing more than a dig conducted as a result of an accidental antiquities discovery by a construction crew but one of Yuval’s roles with the IAA is to do that very thing. After some small talk and interesting discussion about the site he was currently on he explained what he knew about the problem with the ecologist wanting us to wait until April of 2009 to begin the dig. Yuval was as in the dark as we were about the reason. In-fact, the best possible reason for the delay came from a most unlikely source…a waitress in one of the only restaurants in the small city of Arad by the name of Emmie.

What is the copper scroll?

"Under the ruins in the Vale of Achor, forty cubits under the steps entering to the east: are seventeen talents."

So begins the most intriguing and baffling of all the scrolls to be found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, the metal document called the...Copper Scroll. Baffling because it has never before been understood and intriguing because of the vast amount of buried treasures listed in the incredible text. The words of the Copper Scroll read like no other found in the ancient library of scrolls of the Dead Sea and potentially hold the key to finding the Alter of Incense, the Tabernacle of Moses, and the most sought after prize in archeology, the Ark of the Covenant.

Possibilities are high that the Copper Scroll could lead to a discovery that would make any other archeological find seem insignificant in scale....
