I think a copy of Gerald Lankester Harding’s photographs of the Cave 1Q manuscripts as they were being excavated in 1949 may be at the École biblique in Jerusalem.Brent Nongbri continues to excavate the earliest photos of the Qumran cave excavations.[...]
Can anyone confirm or disconfirm the possibility that a set of Harding's excavation photos of Cave One are deposited with the École Biblique? If this is correct, the photos could offer some material evidence that Muhammad ed-Dhib recovered scrolls from Cave One.
