Calakmul, Tikal, Palenque, Chichen Itza, Naachtun. These archaeological sites are among the greatest marvels of Mayan civilisation.
Their towering pyramids stand as unmatched architectural feats. But long before they became tourist attractions, these cities were the capitals of mighty kingdoms, ruled by kings who were worshipped as gods. These mightiest kings caused the downfall of an entire civilisation.

An unprecedented archaeology series that is character driven and that mixes present-day archaeology and history with ancient history scenes brought to life with AI. A story filled with exciting events with twists and turns similar to a true drama series.
