In this video, we present 10 surprising archaeological and palaeontological discoveries that transport us through time and reveal history's best-kept secrets. From the hidden Mayan city of Valeriana, rediscovered beneath the Mexican jungle thanks to LiDAR technology, to a skeleton in Norway that confirms a medieval legend, this tour is full of finds that will change the way you see the past. We'll discover the acoustic properties of Mayan temples in Edzná, the impressive trove of 500 Bronze Age artefacts in Scotland and cave paintings in South Africa depicting animals that went extinct 250 million years ago. We'll also explore how tobacco leaves marks on bones even after death and look at the possibility that Mycenaean female warriors were represented in ancient art.
