The inside of a Herculaneum delicate & ancient scroll, unseen for nearly 2,000 years, has been revealed using Artificial Intelligence.
Unseen for nearly two thousand years, this fragile piece of papyrus could reveal brand new ancient philosophical writings.
Scientists have used Artificial Intelligence to discover the contents of this Herculaneum scroll that was buried by Mount Vesuvius in 79AD.
It's so delicate that it would fall apart if it were to be unraveled so scientists used high-resolution X-ray scans and AI to detect the faint ink and open it virtually.
It's one of three that are housed at Oxford’s Bodleian Libraries in the UK and work is ongoing to improve software methods to read the entirety of the scrolls.
One of the first words is written in ancient Greek. At the time, literature was heavily engaged with philosophy, especially Epicureanism.
This breakthrough marks a major step in deciphering the ancient scrolls without damaging them.
Researchers continue to analyse the text, which could reshape our understanding of ancient literature and mind.
