They could have just put a piece in a vacuum chamber for an extended period of time. The oil would have been drawn out and the piece could have been dated.......

An exhibit of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Bible is opening tomorrow in Milwaukee. It will run several months. THe exhibit was put together by our museam curators; it is not a traveling exhibit. So, you’ll have to come to Milwaukee to see it.
