Oldest Known Gospel May Be Revealed In Mummy Mask
(Above is a mask that is similar to the one found with the ancient scripts)
According to a recent article, back in the day of the mummy, pharoah’s were mummified with gold masks, where as ordinary people had to settle for used papyrus. Papyrus was worth a pretty penny at the time so people had to reuse the material with writing on it.
Researchers struck gold by this recent discovery. The earliest known gospel texts date from the years 101 to 200, and the newly found script is before the year 90! The script is a fragment of the Gospel of Mark and is set to be published. How cool is that?
