The Great Discoveries of Ancient Greece

Beschreibung

A story of two of the most heroic, and controversial, figures in archaeology: Heinrich Schliemann, who discovered the remains of Troy, and Arthur Evans who unearthed the great city of King Minos. Replete with drama and adventure, it tells of the 3,000-year old civilisations that were brought back to life.
