Text in English and French. Qumran Cave 11Q was discovered by
Bedouin in 1956. In the cave, remains of around 30 Dead Sea Scrolls
were found, a few of them in very good state of preservation (the
Temple Scroll, the Psalm Scroll, the Paleo Leviticus Scroll, and
the Targum Job Scroll). The cave was excavated by Roland de Vaux
(Ecole Biblique et Archeologique FranAaise, Jerusalem) and Gerald
L. Harding (Department of Antiquities of Jordan) in 1956; later by
Joseph Patrich (University of Haifa) in 1988, and by Marcello
Fidanzio and Dan Bahat (ISCAB FTL and Universitedella Svizzera
Italiana) in 2017. Due to Roland de Vaux's premature death, the
archaeology of Cave 11Q has never been published. This volume
presents the final report on the 1956, 1988 and 2017 excavations at
Cave 11Q. Next to discussing the physical characteristics and
stratigraphy of the cave and offering a full analysis of
non-textual finds, the volume for the first time presents many tiny
manuscript fragments found in storerooms during recent work. These
fragments, most of which were collected during 1956 excavation,
have not been known until now. The volume, therefore, offers the
final report of Cave 11Q excavations as well as the editio princeps
of the new fragments, followed by a reevaluation of the entire set
of texts found in this famous cave.
