Today - on every continent - teams of scientists, archaeologists, salvagers and forensic experts dig and sift and toil. Delving into crime scenes and historical deaths, they uncover brutal evidence and discover medical clues, all in search of the truth behind some of the most compelling mysteries of modern times.

In RIDDLES OF THE DEAD, viewers travel into the world of 'living archaeology'; a place where state-of-the-art technology and old-fashioned detective work blend to create a new kind of investigative science. Once there, our scientist / adventurers challenge history, convention and themselves as they work to illuminate the past in a new and provoking light.
