History - Digging For the Truth Mummies In The Clouds

Adventure has a new name! Host, explorer and survival expert Hunter Ellis / Zay Harding takes a fresh look at the world's greatest ancient mysteries and puts adventure back into history as he travels to some of the most intriguing, remote and physically challenging locations in the world. With a fresh and engaging approach to archaeology, Hunter / Zay goes to extremes and takes us along for the ride. Five hundred years before the Inca, a remarkable band of warriors called the Chachapoya built the greatest stone monument in the Americas. Amazingly, it's three times the size of Egypt's largest pyramid! Yet their civilization vanished almost without a trace. Hunter Ellis accompanies a team of archaeologists to this majestic site in remote northern Peru. Serious explorations have only been underway since 1997, and there's no telling what secrets will be revealed on this expedition!
