National Geographic: Lost Fleet Of Columbus - DVD

Though myth-busting archaeology, dramatic recreations, and cutting-edge forensic investigation, National Geographic attempts to accurately reconstruct the faces that may have walked beside the legends of the bible. With unprecendented access to four ancient skulls from the Holy Land, Lost Faces of the of the Bible seeks to rebuild not only a face, but the life and times of a bygone era. Travelling across the globe, archaelogists and scholars separate fact from myth, while a team of forensic anthropologists and artists put flesh on bone, using traditional and state-of- the-art methods of facial reconstruction.

It's among the most tantalizing mysteries in all of ancient Egyptian archaeology: What became of the legendary Queen Nefertiti and Akhenaten, the radical pharaoh and probable father of King Tutankhamun? And why were the relics of their fabled Amarna dynasty deliberately obliterated by later rulers. Now, an international team of scientists sets out to solve the riddle of Nefertiti's disappearance and the fate of her royal family. Using state-of-the-art-CT scanning technology to examine mummies linked to the Amarna mystery, researchers will produce the first detailed 3-D images of the remains- and unravel stunning, new answers to the 3,300 year-old puzzle of Nefertiti and the Lost Dynast
