The Marzeah Papyrus is an inscribed strip of papyrus that is claimed to be the oldest known Hebrew manuscript in the world, allegedly from the 7th century BCE. The document appeared in the antiquities market in 1990. It is included in the "Ink and Blood" [1] exhibition of Biblical texts that is touring the United States. At least one scholar claims it is probably a modern forgery.
