Ancient Apocalypse (Season 2)

Produced by World Media Rights for ZDF. Past Preservers provided experts, Dr Karen Bellinger & Dr Michele Koons.

Ancient Apocalypse investigates stories of the collapse of some of the world’s greatest civilisations. Ruins can be found on every continent. Places where only the stones bear witness to the tales of fallen people. These ruins may be buried underground, hidden in the shade of a jungle canopy, or lost amidst the teeming activity of a modern city. However, they all raise the same questions. How could something so remarkable almost vanish from the face of the earth? Why do civilisations collapse?
