Engineering an Empire
Buried: Knights Templar Revealed
Join our hosts, Mikey Kay and Garth Baldwin, as they investigate whether the famed and mysterious Knight's Templar were really disbanded and destroyed in 1307 or if they survived, taking the Holy Grail with them. The historical detectives journey through the middle-east in an attempt to uncover new evidence of the true fate of this secretive organization. Starting off in the holy city of Jerusalem, the team explore archaic tunnels and a safe house that could have been used to smuggle religious relics to safety. Their exploratory travels then take them to the ancient city of Acre and on to Cypress to search for clues about a covert Templar mission. Secret Templar codes lead the unit to a monastery in Spain which might be able to prove that the knights survived the fateful arrests of Friday the 13th, 1307.
