Look closer…
Take (1) – an object that seemed liked a religious manuscript, stick it in (2) – a place you’ll find in Menlo Park, CA, USA, and what happens?

Answer:

“Take a twice-erased and overwritten Archimedes document, and use the SLAC to fluoresce proteins with a very specific concentration of iron and, voila! it’s like the renaissance never even happened.”

Highly focussed X-rays leading to the production of what’s known as synchrotron light led to the deciphering of some pages previously considered illegible.

“Sometime after 1938, one owner of the manuscript forged four Byzantine-style religious images in the manuscript in an effort to increase its value. It appeared that these had rendered the underlying text forever illegible. However, in May 2005, highly-focused X-rays produced at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center in Menlo Park, California, were used by Drs. Uwe Bergman and Bob Morton to begin deciphering the parts of the 174-page text that had not yet been revealed.”
