The adventure begins --
The treasure hunters --
In search of buried cities --
From sport to science --
Tombs, texts, and trophies --
Seeking the first Americans --
Putting time in order --
A new look at the New World --
Scientists in the field --
When, where -- and why --
Lost ships, sunken cities --
To the ends of Earth and time --
The future of the past.
