Dive deep beneath the waves of the Mediterranean off the coast of Egypt to discover the lost city of Thonis-Heracleion. For millennia, this bustling port and vital customs station at the mouth of the Nile was mere legend, a mythical "Atlantis" swallowed by the sea. Until modern underwater archaeologists, led by Franck Goddio, uncovered the sprawling metropolis. But within the city's submerged canals, they found something even more incredible: the largest ancient ship graveyard ever discovered, containing over sixty distinct vessels frozen in time.
This documentary explores the mystery of this underwater fleet, focusing specifically on the legendary Egyptian "Baris" ship. For 2,500 years, historians doubted Herodotus's bizarre description of these distinct Nile cargo boats, built with interlocking acacia blocks like "brickwork" and rigged with towering papyrus sails. We reveal how the painstaking excavation of the massive "Ship 17" finally proved the ancient historian correct, showcasing the incredible ingenuity of ancient Egyptian engineering used to conquer the treacherous Nile delta. Witness the cataclysmic earthquake and soil liquefaction event that dragged a thriving commercial hub and its dozens of ships into the abyss in a single moment.
