Mount Nemrud: The Throne of the Gods - PREVIEW

Purchase: http://www.der.org/films/mount-nemrud.html Located in one of the most remote areas of Eastern Turkey and considered the eighth wonder of the ancient world, Mount Nemrud has been shrouded in mystery for more than 2000 years. At 7,700 feet above sea level and containing a 150-foot high tumulus flanked by colossal statues, the Mount Nemrud sanctuary has become synonymous with absolute grandeur. Through the use of on-site interviews with world renowned scholars, 3-D computer animations, and battle reinactments, the filmmakers journey back in time to recreate history. Incorporating rare archival footage of excavations and memoirs of dedicated archaeologists such as Otto Puchstein and Theresa Goell are also.
