Description

Ancient Greece was a civilization like no other--and now you can see why. Computer graphics, archival film, and classic art come together to recreate the past. Tour the Acropolis in the 5th Century B.C. Stand before Delphi's Temple of Apollo where the oracle spoke. Gaze at the Statue of Athena and marvel at the Parthenon. Walk through the Agora, the Temple of Zeus, and Olympia--home of the Olympic games. Sail to the legendary lost continent of Atlantis. Experience the daily lives and customs of Ancient Greeks in this unforgettable journey.

Extra Feature: Atlantis: In Search of a Lost Continent - Since Plato first described Atlantis 2,500 years ago, more than 5,000 publications have been written about this mythical island kingdom located in the Atlantic. Once described as the Cradle of Civilization, the astounding accounts of Atlantis describe an advanced society that included electricity and airships. Follow host Richard Crenna as he takes you through this exceptional story of science, history, and mystery.

Note: This is part 1 of a series of 3 parts.
