It also includes several literary texts which are mainly leather fragments of the Hebrew Bible. Unlike the documents from Qumran itself, these have the advantage of being found in a well-recorded archaeological context. The sites discussed here include Ketef Jericho, Nahal Sdeir (Nahal David), Nahal Hever and Nahal Hever/Seiyal, Nahal Mishmar, and Nahal Se'elim.
