When the prayer scrolls become old, instead of throwing them away, they stuff it into the walls of the monastery. That way they weather away on their own.
April 22, 2010 Ð Scroll of Honor Dedication. Nearly 500 Clemson University graduates who died in service to their country were remembered Thursday during dedication ceremonies for the Scroll of Honor. Clemson President James Barker and selected dignitaries unveiled two purple-shrouded tiger statues as a crowd of up 1,000 applauded and stood at attention. To date 470 names are etched into the stone scroll. There are 27 names from WWI; one from the Nicaraguan campaign; 378 from WWII; 17 more from Korea; one, that of a pilot, from the Cuban missile crisis; 25 from the Vietnam War: and 19 from the Cold War era and the wars on terror. Two additional names were added just as the ceremony took place. The Clemson Corps, organized in 1999, is responsible for maintaining the Scroll of Honor records. The corps is associated with the Clemson Alumni Association and helps raise funds for the preservation of ClemsonÕs military history and the creation of scholarships for ROTC cadets..

The Dead Sea scrolls consist of roughly 900 documents, including texts from the Hebrew Bible, discovered between 1947 and 1956 in eleven caves in and around the Wadi Qumran near the ruins of the ancient settlement of Khirbet Qumran, on the northwest shore of the Dead Sea.
The texts are of great religious and historical significance, as they include some of the only known surviving copies of Biblical documents made before 100 CE, and preserve evidence of considerable diversity of belief and practice within late Second Temple Judaism. They are written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, mostly on parchment, but with some written on papyrus. hese manuscripts generally date between 150 BCE to 70 CE. The scrolls are most commonly identified with the ancient Jewish sect called the Essenes, but recent scholarship has challenged their association with the scrolls.
The Dead Sea Scrolls are traditionally divided into three groups: "Biblical" manuscripts (copies of texts from the Hebrew Bible), which comprise roughly 40% of the identified scrolls; "Apocryphal" or "Pseudepigraphical" manuscripts (known documents from the Second Temple Period like Enoch, Jubilees, Tobit, Sirach, non-canonical psalms, etc., that were not ultimately canonized in the Hebrew Bible), which comprise roughly 30% of the identified scrolls; and "Sectarian" manuscripts (previously unknown documents that speak to the rules and beliefs of a particular group or groups within greater Judaism) like the Community Rule, War Scroll, Pesher (Hebrew pesher פשר = "Commentary") on Habakkuk, and the Rule of the Blessing, which comprise roughly 30% of the identified scrolls.
Publication of the scrolls has taken many decades, and the delay has been a source of academic controversy. As of 2007 two volumes remain to be completed, with the whole series, Discoveries in the Judean Desert, running to thirty-nine volumes in total. Many of the scrolls are now housed in the Shrine of the Book in Jerusalem. According to The Oxford Companion to Archeology, "The biblical manuscripts from Qumran, which include at least fragments from every book of the Old Testament, except perhaps for the Book of Esther, provide a far older cross section of scriptural tradition than that available to scholars before. While some of the Qumran biblical manuscripts are nearly identical to the Masoretic, or traditional, Hebrew text of the Old Testament, some manuscripts of the books of Exodus and Samuel found in Cave Four exhibit dramatic differences in both language and content. In their astonishing range of textual variants, the Qumran biblical discoveries have prompted scholars to reconsider the once-accepted theories of the development of the modern biblical text from only three manuscript families: of the Masoretic text, of the Hebrew original of the Septuagint, and of the Samaritan Pentateuch. It is now becoming increasingly clear that the Old Testament scripture was extremely fluid until its canonization around 100 CE."
Practice plate for interlocking scrolls. I've included some progression photos. I begin by drawing the designs, transferring them and then cutting the outline. from there comes background removal and shading. Finished plate is 2 x 4 inches.
The Clemson Corps maintains the Scroll of Honor to honor those Clemson alumni who made the ultimate sacrifice- those who gave their lives in service to their country. To date, 470 alumni have been identified who were killed from WWI through the current wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Inside, they have a turbo-amazing version of this. It's mapped onto a photo-realistic globe. The globe floats in space, with an accurate nighttime shadow, and colored fiery particles shoot out of pinpoint geographic locations, representing live query stats.

This is my first scroll based on an authentic illuminated medieval manuscript, painted on cream cardstock to give the appearance of parchment.

此五彩百鹿尊器形敦碩，飾紋繁麗，造工複雜，集萬曆製瓷工藝之菁華。此器通體繪滿五彩紋飾，釉色絢麗明艷，圖案靈活生動。史書記載之萬曆皇帝，雖非勤政明君、亦不熱衷藝文，但其在位近半個世紀，天下尚安；而皇帝甚好奢華器物，故萬曆一朝，景德鎮御窰瓷匠得以盡展所長，創新彩釉技法，成品佳器頗豐。萬曆五彩色調濃艷，大紅大綠，色彩對比強烈。本品五彩瑞鹿按序間隔，著色豐富，構圖繁麗而均稱，賞心悅目，其中礬紅彩又以濃淡分出兩色，實不多見。
百鹿圖應始創於萬曆年間。鹿在古代寓意豐富，例如象徵長壽，被奉為千歲瑞獸；野生林鹿以靈芝為食，古人即認為鹿角集靈芝精華，視為入藥珍品。鹿音同「祿」，故百鹿又象徵「百祿」。
本器紋飾蘊涵多重吉祥寓意，佈局呈通景式，場景或仿自御苑或皇家獵場，故有野鹿等珍禽異獸棲居。明時皇家園林西苑，近紫禁皇城，修於明初，歷朝多位皇帝常遊幸於此。明中葉後，嘉靖皇帝翻修西苑樓殿，大興祀典齋醮、修道煉仙等玄事，更於二十一年遷入，稱為西內。

I have decided I will try to learn engravings into metal parts too, so here is a sketch I did, inspired by Norwegian art form "rosemaling", trying to learn the scroll work.. I guess this can be very useful when laying gold leaf motives and making designs for leather seats as well.
The engraving tool I´ll look into is the Steve Lindsay Airgraver, but it will cost me at least $2000. It looks awesome and the inspiration is to be able to engrave motorcycle parts as well.. The other day I found a woman living in Telemark, Norway using that equipment, so I found her email and sent her some questions.. within a few days I got a very kind reply where she said, I could feel free to call her if I had more questions, so I called her.. we ended up speaking on the phone for almost two hours and at the end of the conversation she offered me to loan one of her engraving systems to see if I liked it. She didn´t want any kind of deposit or paying for the shipping cost or anything.. that´s what I call good old fashioned trust, and I´m exited like a kid to check this out! :-)
SHOCK! Sweetington actually takes his camera OUTSIDE!! Some shots from my holiday in the Lake District. It seems that even when faced with grand mountain vistas, I am still drawn to the miniature!
This reminds me of my violin.

No idea what was going on here, but obviously a political protest. The cloth scroll contained a list of names and dates.
