Myths exist from every period in human history and remain powerful even centuries after they are first told. But how much truth is there to myths, and can we separate fact from fiction? Each episode of the riveting series Myths: The Greatest Mysteries of Humanity examines these questions with the assistance of scientists and hobby researchers. Archaeologists uncover ancient graves and go on underwater expeditions in locations across the globe.
