Provide a serious scholarly source for the claims about treasure and Dead Sea scrolls, or remove this material. Dfass 03:28, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unsourced

OK. After about 1 month with no one sourcing the passage below, I removed it. It seems pretty far-out to me, and it should not be part of the article without a very reliable attribution.

The introduction of the book includes allegedly ancient records which Rabbi Hertz called the "Mishnayot". The accuracy of the Valley of the Kings was later confirmed by the discovery of the Copper Scroll among the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the recognition in the 1990s that the Tosefta which Solomon Schechter had brought to Cambridge University in 1896 was the source of the Mishnayot.^{[citation needed]}
