Cities Of The Underworld (2006)
Most of us have an idea about what various civilisations look like from the ground up; Egypt's pyramids, Greece's temples, the Coliseum of Rome, Mexico's Great Pyramid of Cholula or Cambodia's Angkor Wat. But what of all that underground action? Each of these buildings had foundations, great cities had entire underground networks of tunnels - remember the catacombs? This series focuses on ancient culture from the ground down seeking answers beneath the surface.

The gladiator duels of ancient Rome were fights to the death in every sense of the phrase. You either won. Or you died. But their lives, such as they were, took place underground. Training, fighting, living was all subterranean. This episode examines the Flavian amphitheatre and the living quarters of people who were slated for death.

Cairo is the modern face of an ancient culture. There are more authentic artefacts scattered around the streets of the city than you can poke a stick at. But it takes more than archaeological skill to plumb the mysteries of this ancient civilisations, engineers skilled at digging up the secrets hidden in the bowels of the earth, are needed as well.
