I'm not sure which documentary that it is but it appears to be a chopped down version of episode 1 of Michael Wood's really rather good six-part series In Search of The Trojan War: <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkbUQKyie_w<br /><br />You can still get it on DVD and it's worth it, since it's very much an exploration in which Wood slowly becomes convinced that the Trojan War happened. In episode 6, he has various arguments with experts about whether it was genuinely an earthquake that toppled Troy VI (it would actually be impossible to tell) and whether it's possible that there was contamination between layers, which is interesting to say the least. <br /><br />There's a <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0563522658/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=0563522658&linkCode=as2&tag=thewordisnote-21" rel="nofollow">companion book</a>, too, which he updated in 2008 (I think) with the latest results of the archaeology as well. Well worth reading, too.Rob Buckleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12161472800655115351noreply@blogger.com
