THE CURSED VALLEY OF THE PYRAMIDS
EPISODE 2
5 Sep 2006 (59 mins) / BBC2 ("Lost Cities of the Ancients").
This edition takes a journey to the Lambeyeque valley in northern Peru to find the forgotten ruins of 250 mysterious pyramids, colossal structures made out of mud bricks.
In the Lambeyeque valley in Northern Peru lies a strange lost world - the forgotten ruins of 250 mysterious pyramids, including some of the biggest on the planet, colossal structures made out of mud bricks. Long ago, the Lambeyeque people were haunted by a terrible fear and believed that building pyramids was essential to their survival. Their obsession reached its height at a city called Tucume, an eerie place of 26 pyramids standing side-by-side, the last pyramids this civilization created before they vanished forever.

THE DARK LORDS OF HATTUSHA
EPISODE 3
6 Sep 2006 (60 mins) / BBC2 ("Lost Cities of the Ancients").
The war-like Hittites conquered all before them creating an empire to match that of the Ancient Egyptians. Their fortified capital - Hattusha - was built in the most remote of locations (Anatolia in northern Turkey), and was a masterpiece of civil and military engineering; It also contained one of the biggest libraries of the ancient world. So why did this great empire suddenly collapse and remain undiscovered by historians for so long?
