Saudi and international teams have collaborated on projects across the Kingdom, from studies of the Peninsula’s climatic history to underwater excavations in the Red Sea, and the exploration of several lost cities. But what new information do the archaeologists offer? And can their revelations change accepted views of Arabia’s history? Travelling the length and breadth of the Kingdom, this one-hour documentary film searches for answers – and celebrates the renaissance of Saudi archaeology.
