1. Tracking the First Americans
The 12,000-year-old skull of a human female, dubbed "Luzia", is unearthed near Brazil. Why doesn't she belong to any of the races residing in the New World at that time?

Renowned experts offer a first-time glimpse of the scientific truth behind Noah's Flood. Pioneering expeditions may finally unlock the secrets of this biblical calamity.
