Bettany Hughes' Lost Worlds: Dawn of Civilisations

Season 1 Episode 2: Episode 2

In the concluding part of her journey across Turkey, Bettany goes back in time to the extraordinary Neolithic sites of Karahantepe and Göbeklitepe, where life-sized stone figures, which lay buried for 12,000 years, offer a glimpse into a world emerging from the last ice age. She also travels to Gordion, the legendary home of King Midas - the man with the golden touch - and on to Sardis, the seat of King Croesus, as she investigates the dramatic rise and fall of ancient civilisations, where myths and historical reality meet.
