Product Description
Ancient human footprints, stunning shipwrecks, mythical princesses and astonishing rituals. In 'X Marks the Spot' Professor Michael Scott traces the thrilling story of archaeology, from colonial expeditions to today's cutting-edge digs, unearthing traps, curses and buried treasure along the way. We meet the characters, some celebrated and some forgotten, who found world-famous discoveries like the Rosetta Stone, the Terracotta Warriors and Machu Picchu. We trek from the jungles of South America to the deserts of China, uncovering the true stories behind the wonders of past civilisations. And we learn why X never, ever marks the spot.
