Synopsis: Into the Unknown tells the story of how science is continuously transforming our knowledge of the past. Archaeologist, professor, and prolific author Brian Fagan sets out on a fascinating journey across long-forgotten landscapes only lately brought to light through the magic of satellite imagery, remote sensing, and other modern techniques. He retraces ancient trade routes, encounters people of the past face-to-face, and explains how their innermost secrets often can be revealed by medical science and high-tech studies.
