Seeking the First Americans
Archeologists from Texas to Alaska search for clues to the identity of the first people to tread the North American continent-- the early hunters who between 11,000 and 50,000 years ago crossed the Bering Straits in pursuit of game.
Shipwreck: La Tinindad Valencera
The wreck of La Trinidad Valencera, the fourth-largest ship in the Spanish Armada, was discovered by amateur divers in 30 feet of water off the coast of Ireland. Their finds, ranging from bronze cannons to leather shoes, tell a unique story of life on a 16th century battleship.
Other People's Garbage
Although written documents recount more than 350 years of events in America, they reveal little about what day-to-day life was like. Historical archeologists at three sites across the United States are uncovering a clearer and often very different story of the recent past than we've ever known.
