It sheds new light on moments in history that have long been shrouded in myth and controversy.

Filming with archaeologists, historians, scholars and scientists, no stone is left unturned in search of answers.
In this series where fact and legend collide, explore the history of each treasure and the possible implications of exposing the fascinating truth.
In the Season 2 premiere, "The Great Pyramid": The Great Pyramid at Giza is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the World that still stands.
For 38 of the last 45 centuries, it was the tallest building on Earth.
If you picked it up and dropped it in Manhattan, it would take up an entire city block.
And talking of blocks, conventional wisdom says that it is made up of 2.3-million of them.
Since it is widely agreed that it was completed in between 20 and 30 years, that means that one of those blocks was placed every six minutes, night and day, for something like 25 years.
Though archaeologists have been poring over this site for more than 200 years, we still do not really know how the ancient Egyptians built the Great Pyramid.
