AI helps decode scrolls destroyed during the Vesuvius eruption
Quick Glance: Decoded Passages from Herculaneum Scrolls Revealed
  • Using AI, 15 passages from a 2,000-year-old unrolled Herculaneum scroll have been deciphered, offering insights into an ancient philosopher's thoughts.

  • Researchers decoded the first word from an unopened Herculaneum scroll and revealed nearly complete passages from the ancient text, shedding light on philosophy from almost 2,000 years ago.

  • Advanced computer technology and AI allow researchers to analyze the Herculaneum scrolls without unrolling them, preventing damage to the fragile documents.

  • Over 2,000 characters, including the first full passages, have been deciphered from a scroll, as announced by computer scientists involved in the Vesuvius Challenge to accelerate discoveries on the scrolls.
