Ancient Desert Death Trap

This NOVA documentary investigates enigmatic stone megastructures scattered across the Arabian Desert, some stretching for miles and visible only from the air. Roughly nine thousand years old, these Stone Age constructions were rediscovered a century ago and are only now being understood. The film explores who built them and what they were for. It is a fascinating archaeological detective story set in an unforgiving landscape. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
