Archaeologists unearth a skull with this embedded in it! - Curse of the Ancients

7:00

Archaeologists have unearthed a skull with a bronze arrow head stuck in it. The slaughter at Tollense has captivated archaeologists for years and it was an amateur archaeologist who made the incredible find. In Curse of the Ancients, Professor Alice Roberts takes viewers on a journey across Europe and North Africa to discover epic sites and landmarks - fabulous cities abandoned, battlefields long forgotten and sophisticated civilisations toppled and lost to the mists of time. To our ancient ancestors, suffering these catastrophic events, it must have seemed they were cursed but science is now exploding those myths and re-writing history.
