“Become an eyewitness to one dazzling archaeological find after another as National Geographic goes in search of Egypt's fabled past and uncovers some of the most exciting, headline-making discoveries of recent times”

French Archaeologist Dr Alain Zivrie takes us under the sand to unearth mysteries of the great tombs at Bahariya and Saqqara and paint a new picture of a 3000 year old society....

In Saqqara, Egypt's city of the dead, archaeologists began chipping away to find a honeycomb of burial shafts, passages and funeral chambers connected to the mighty  Ramses II and the boy-king Tutankhamen.  Filming for two years, National Geographic has exclusive access to this amazing site as the team uncovers one incredible find after another.

This breathtaking film unearths treasures from the Cliffside of Tombs overlooking the Nile Valley to the sprawling ''Valley of the Golden Mummies.''

It is a gripping archaeological detective story, told as only National Geographic can.
