Lost Treasure Tombs of the Ancient Maya (2021 - 2021)

Episode 1

Part one of two. Archaeologists search for evidence of the Maya civilisation and what became of it, making use of revolutionary new technology harnessing particles from space to analyse a 1200-year-old temple, while another team digs into a lakebed to search for clues to why the Maya abandoned their magnificent cities. The first episode examines one of the most magnificent royal burials ever found in Palenque, Mexico.
