Cleopatra's Lost Tomb (Full Episode)

Two of the ancient world's most famous names—Cleopatra and Mark Antony—were buried together in a tomb that has vanished from history. Ancient writers placed their monument near a temple of Isis in Alexandria, and while archaeologists have uncovered the temple, the palace district, and even parts of the city itself, the tomb remains lost. This is the story of a mystery that has outlasted empires. Alexandria has been broken apart by earthquakes, floods, rebuilding, and two thousand years of time, yet the search for Cleopatra's final resting place continues. Every new discovery seems to bring the answer closer while pulling it somewhere else. There is no sealed doorway waiting in the sand—at least not yet.
