While the cargo was initially thought to be ballast stone, it soon became clear that the ship was delivering tons of glass in varying degrees of workmanship. This remarkable discovery, the second of its kind, prompted the formation of a Franco-Italian archaeological team to investigate the wreck\u2019s cargo, now known as the Capo Corso 2, onboard the Alfred Merlin. This film explores the significance of glass in Ancient Rome through the team\u2019s deep-sea archaeological research, and how the development and dissemination of glassmaking methods changed human civilization forever.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4\u20135 PM<br \/>The Rise and Fall of the Incas: The Golden Age<br \/><\/strong>Directors Quentin Domard and Elsa Haharfi, Producer C\u00e9line Payot Lehmann, Pernel Media (France)<br \/>(56 min.)<br \/>From the Saqsaquayman fortress to the lost city of Vilcabamba, passing through Lake Titicaca and the Machu Picchu archaeological site, this documentary takes us on a journey to uncover the last mysteries of the Inca civilization.
