Title: The World's last mysteries
Description: "Archaeology - the study of antiquity from whatever evidence can be found - gained a double aura of science and romance. As men began to probe and question their past, often hoping to find clues to the future, they increasingly came to realize that a wealth of civilisations had preceded them. The probings of science began to replace the myths with reason. And yet many of the discoveries made by science proved to be so extraordinary and so enigmatic that even now many new finds are posing more questions than answers." -- Introduction.
