For many millennia, Babylon was shrouded in a mythical aura as a place in the bible synonymous with decadence and sin. But its true historical significance lay buried under the desert sands of Iraq, only to be discovered late in the 19th century. In this amazing new documentary, we compare myth with historical fact in order to unmask this fabled city, and bring to life the city's legendary characters and buildings using the latest in 3D motion capture technology based on precise archeological data.
