  • Lost Worlds investigates the very latest archaeological finds at three remote and hugely significant sites - Angkor Wat, Troy and Persepolis. Lost Worlds travels to each site and through high-end computer graphics, lavish re-enactment and the latest archaeological evidence brings them to stunning televisual life. From the 900-year-old remains of Angkor Wat in the Cambodian jungle the staggering City of the God Kings is recreated. From Project Troia, in North West Turkey, the location of the biggest archaeological expedition ever mounted the lost city is stunningly visualised and finally from Persepolis the city and the great Persian Empire are brought to life.

    I’m a geologist and the sea having recessed a few miles over such flat terrain in the time elapsed is not unusual, and it has been well-documented elsewhere in the Mediterranean. The geophysicist’s studies seem to be confirming this and can be relied upon. But, that’s not a “deep drill”, tens of meters is very shallow drilling, we can drill many thousands.

    This Real History is well dated, as indicated by a Washington post 2/28/93 article. Korfman died in 2005. Dan, Susan and Matt, it would be nice to know the current status of the meaning of Illium. This is past history about ancient history. Valuable but 30+ years old.

    Unfortunately, Schlieman was a treasure hunter, not an archaeologist. He would never have found the site without Frank Calvert, to whom he never even gave a mention, much less credit for Calvert’s discovery of Troy at Hisarlik. He took all the gold found throughout this dig and decked his wife out in it, without noting it’s context, level, location, etc. That says it all. He wasn’t much better than those ISIS looters who blow up anything ancient in the hope of finding gold to finance their terror attacks on those who don’t follow their extreme religion.

      First lesson of History is to forget everything that happened after that time period one is looking at . You only know what that person , group of people at that location knew , how they thought , seen their world , their values their beliefs . Sorry but Mr. Schlieman even for that date , he lacked the highest ideals he should have had . But he was was not trained , nor did he have acidemic training of method of thought , but a deep passion to look . At that time most others did about as much damage to sites they dug up .During Roman times the site was well noted tourist stop . Check out Sumerian tablets being destoryed until the thought that they might be important . Best wishes in the joys of understanding earths geology and anything else that you find of interest .

    So some guy got pissed because some other guys stole, kidnapped and or commandeered, walked away with his wife or girlfriend. But did he really steal her? Kidnap her? Commandeer her? or was she just fed up with the other guy's bs. And left with this other dude. Think about it.
    Now you know.
    That is all.

    I read Homer's Iliad to read about the Trojan horse; only to find there was no Trojan Horse in the Iliad. The Trojan Horse is an invention of the Odyssey and elaborated upon by Virgil. I think that's proof enough there was no Trojan horse. But, that doesn't mean there wasn't a late bronze age war.

      The sack of troy is described in the Aneid by Virgil. Not a bad documentary but the writer should at least read the Iliad if they want to talk about it.
      Also I strongly recommend Stanley Lombardo's translations of the Iliad, Odyssey, and the Aneid. Very approachable.

      @@oker59 oh, no doubt. As a kid I tried reading some of those translations but I could never get through them. I recommend Mr. Lombardo's translation because they are easy to read, which makes it more enjoyable. These stories were meant to be heard by the common people, as to say mostly the illiterate lower classes of those times. Now I read more "better" translations but still find the simple translation more enjoyable. I guess it all depends on what you enjoy.
