Science in Archaeology 3.0
Explores how cutting-edge technology and science have pushed the boundaries of archaeological studies and filled in some of the gaps in history.

From reconstructing an ancient Neanderthal cave, to retracing an ancient woman's footprints, to decoding the Herculaneum scrolls, scientists decipher the past by examining traces of history that have disappeared.
S1, EP3 "Making Sites Speak"
Exploring how cutting-edge technology can protect at-risk archaeological sites to help preserve the past; from the bottom of the ocean to deep inside pre-Inca temples, LIDAR, robots and digitization create virtual archives for the future.
S1, EP2 "Making Bodies Speak"
Technological innovations allow analysis of ancient skeletons, revealing more about people's diverse ancestry; isotope and DNA analysis from bones and dental plaque can determine skin, eye and hair color, as well as genetic ancestry and gender.
