In Breakthrough, Parts of Herculaneum Scroll, Buried by Vesuvius Eruption, Deciphered

Interesting...

A breakthrough in the challenge was made by American physicist Casey Handmer who noticed that the scans revealed faint textures in the shape of Greek letters, which he named “crackles.” American computer science student Farritor then used these crackles to train the AI software to recognize them and locate letters, revealing the first deciphered word in October — porphyras (purple in Classical Greek).

Combining their discoveries and technology, Farritor and fellow prize-winners Nader and Schilliger were able to use the same technique to successfully decipher 2,000 characters making up five percent of the scroll by the end of December, winning $700,000.

Papyrologists analyzing the excerpt deciphered by the three students say the scroll is a philosophical text discussing pleasure and senses. While the scroll’s author has not yet been discovered, some believe it may have been philosopher and poet Philodemus who had lived in Herculaneum. Researchers said there was a possibility that this scroll was part of the philosopher’s four-book text, “On Music,” of which only the last has been discovered.

Insanity.

The subject of the day after the war in Gaza is still very much under discussion and debate, both internationally and within Israel. 

The controversy over the recent conference in Jerusalem, "Settlements Bring Security and Victory," which called for the creation of Jewish settlements in Gaza after the war, indicates how complicated the issue is even within Israel. The conference was attended by several ministers and coalition members of Knesset.
