Attempts to unravel some of the scrolls ended in ashes as the library was carbonized, Brent Seales, a computer scientist from the University of Kentucky, explained.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People didn&#8217;t understand what they had. So, some scrolls were actually thrown away or burned and you can&#8217;t put Humpty Dumpty back together again,&#8221; Seales said.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-large\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/06\/26\/4bb07b7a-a02e-4926-a049-592ac7cc5128\/thumbnail\/620x349\/d7e8067a9b6211d2c1e6c82ea499ee90\/1750945505619.png#\" alt=\"1750945505619.png \" height=\"349\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/06\/26\/4bb07b7a-a02e-4926-a049-592ac7cc5128\/thumbnail\/620x349\/d7e8067a9b6211d2c1e6c82ea499ee90\/1750945505619.png 1x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Archaeologists in the 18th century found papyrus scrolls in the only ancient library in the world that is still intact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                CBS News<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But thanks to 21st-century technology, experts are now able to examine those still intact.<\/p>\n<p>That technology involved a particle accelerator in England.
