Prairie dogs are America's answer to the meerkat - small, sociable and exceptionally cute. This offbeat film narrated by Rob Brydon takes us to the Wild West where prairie dogs live in huge colonies known as 'towns'. Like meerkats, they are comical to watch, but there is a whole lot more to prairie dogs than just being cute - they can talk. For 30 years Professor Con Slobodchikoff has been recording their calls in response to predators like coyotes, hawks and badgers. He believes he has discovered a language second only to humans in its complexity. It's a bold claim but is he right? Con has devised a series of cunning field experiments to help prove his point.

EP01 THE VANISHED CITY OF THE PHARAOH 皮拉美西斯(Piramesse),古埃及首都,由法老拉美西斯二世(Ramesses the Great)于3000年前建成。当这座失落的城市被发现时,考古学家感觉相当困惑,因为拉美西斯二世根本不可能在此处建城。本片重现了古埃及以及早期考古学家活动的场景,让我们跟随现代考古学家Manfred Bietak与Edgar Pusch的脚步,看他们如何解释皮拉美西斯消失的原因以及为什么数千年后它会出现在错误的地方。 EP02 THE CURSED VALLEY OF THE PYRAMIDS 在秘鲁北部兰巴耶克(Lambeyeque)山谷中,有将近250座用泥砖兴建的金字塔。很久以前兰巴耶克人存在着莫明的恐惧,他们认为建造金字塔是他们存活的关键。在一座名为Tucume的城市中,26座金字塔并排耸立,这是这个文明消失以前最后建造的金字塔,也是整个文明的顶峰。 是什么样的恐惧让这里的人们建造了如此多的金字塔,它们有什么样的功用,为什么整个文明突然之间消失?考古学家在废墟中发现了大量活祭的牺牲者,跟随这些线索,Tucume城的黑暗历史展现在我们眼前。 EP03 THE DARK LORDS OF HATTUSHA 赫梯(Hittite)是位于小亚细亚的文明古国,崛起于公元前2000年,最初是由讲赫梯语的赫梯人和迁来的讲涅西特语的涅西特人组成。公元前15世纪末至前13世纪中叶的新王国时期是赫梯王国最强盛的时期,这一时期编制了《赫梯法典》。在国王苏庇路里乌玛一世统治时期,赫梯摧毁了由胡里特人建立的米坦尼王国,攻占了米坦尼王国的首都瓦努坎尼,扶持了傀儡国王。他自己的儿子也成为其他一些小国的国王。 赫梯在新王国时期在叙利亚同埃及进行了争霸战争。霍连姆赫布、拉美西斯一世、塞提一世、拉美西斯二世这些埃及第19王朝前期的法老们同赫梯进行了激烈的争夺。交战双方在卡德什(Kadesh)战役中受到惨重损失。在赫梯新王哈图西里二世执政时,赫梯同埃及的拉美西斯二世在公元前1283年缔结了和约。公元前1246年,国王哈图西里三世采取和亲政策,将自己的一个女儿嫁给埃及的拉美西斯法老。后来发现于埃及卡纳克庙宇墙上的一幅雕刻,就描绘了当时埃及法老迎娶赫梯公主的情景。 公元前13世纪末,“海上民族”席卷了东部地中海地区,赫梯王国亦被其肢解。公元前8世纪,残存的赫梯王国被亚述帝国所灭。 1834年,法国人查里·特克思尔发现了消失已久的赫梯王国首都汉梯沙(Hattusha)。如今考古学家已经从这里发掘出许多遗迹,包括坚固的城墙、秘密隧道、神庙、宫殿、一座大型的仿金字塔建筑以及古代世界最大的图书馆之一。 本片重现了失落的赫梯王国,讲述赫梯王国兴起至毁灭的全过程。
