8.00 p.m. |DCIVC| Mummy Detective: The Three Kings
The identity of the Magi who visited the Christ child in Bethlehem is a biblical mystery; trace their journey from Persia to Jerusalem to their confrontation with Herod; find out why they brought their signature gifts, and how they vanished from history.
8.00 p.m. |HISTC| CITIES OF THE UNDERWORLD | Naples - Beneath Vesuvius
Naples, Italy narrowly escaped meeting the same fate as its neighboring city, Pompeii in 79 AD when Mount Vesuvius wiped out everything around it. The wind saved Naples that day, but life in the shadow of this massive volcano is unlike any other - and so is its underground. For centuries, Neapolitans have carved out their underground, creating a parallel world where their secrets are safe. Entire neighborhoods line the underworld, time capsules of ancient life - with banks, bakeries and homes preserved below. From repelling into an ancient Greek cavern to uncovering Nero's famous stage underneath a modern apartment, Don Wildman steps back almost 2000 years to discover the world hidden beneath this volcano. We're peeling back the layers of time on Cities of the Underworld: Beneath Vesuvius.
