Shrine of the Book

Shrine of the Book in DOS version.

“The Israel Museum opened in 1965 to worldwide praise as an important research facility. Of its many historical and religiously important collections, none are more famous than the Dead Sea Scrolls. The scrolls are contained in a wing called The Shrine of the Book. The Shrine's roof is an enormous white dome designed to imitate the clay pots in which the Scrolls were found. Those scrolls, discovered in 1947 by Bedouins in the Qumran caves on the Dead Sea, are said to date from 100 B.C., and area the oldest known Jewish manuscripts in existence.”

—Pamphlet, Mario is Missing! (PC)

The Shrine of the Book is a museum-sanctuary built in 1965. Located in Jerusalem, Israel, it is home to the Dead Sea Scrolls.

In the PC versions of Mario is Missing!, a Koopa Troopa stole the Dead Sea Scrolls from the Western Wall, forcing the shrine to close. Until Luigi returns the scrolls, the curator reopens the shrine.
