Description
The history of the world is full of unusual events. History Mysteries Revealed gives the answers to such questions as why did the people of Easter Island compete in a deadly race for birds' eggs; were Neanderthal people the same as you and me; why did the Chinese build such a huge wall; did Vikings really have horns on their helmets, and was the Egyptian queen Cleopatra really Greek?
