Summary |
In this episode Dr Richard Miles explores the archaeological watersheds of the 20th century and how they have helped us build up a picture of the 'ordinary man's journey throughout time. From the discovery of Tutankhamun and his treasures, to the 2,000 year old perfectly preserved body of Tollund man, via the Nazi's attempts to uncover the secrets of Atlantis, and the discovery of a perfectly preserved Neolithic village in Orkney. Richard Miles uncovers what these finds tell us about ourselves, and own quest to understand our origins. (Part 3 of 3) (From the UK) (Documentary) G CC **Final** |
