Largely forgotten for centuries, the ancient Maya were incredible. Their cities across Central and South America featured astonishing pyramids and palaces, while they were also successful farmers and highly creative artists. The Maya were the first people in the Americas to learn how to read and write, and they invented things like rubber, chocolate and chewing gum. They had a deep understanding of astronomy, mathematics and timekeeping, though they also had some horrible, bloodthirsty traditions such as making human sacrifices.

Ihren Pharaonen bauten die Ägypter Grabmäler für die Ewigkeit: die Pyramiden. Die bekanntesten sind die Pyramiden von Gizeh, sie sind aber nicht die ältesten. Bis heute weiß man nicht genau, wie die imposanten Bauwerke entstanden sind. Warum wurden Pharaonen mumifiziert und mit einem Schatz beigesetzt? Die Suche nach Antworten führt Tess, Theo und Quentin zu den Ursprüngen des Pyramidenbaus. Die Stufenpyramide von Sakkara gilt als die älteste Pyramide der Welt. Die Knickpyramide von Dahschur sollte die erste echte Pyramide der Welt werden, sie konnte aber aufgrund des falsch gewählten Untergrunds nicht fertiggestellt werden.
