The Sumerian King List claims 241,200 years of history before the flood — because ancient civilizations knew they had ancient civilizations. This film follows Babylon's Nabonidus digging 18 cubits at Sippar to find Naram-Sin's 3,200-year-old foundation deposit, Egyptian scribes marking Djoser's 1,100-year-old name in red on the Turin King List, and the 18 temple layers buried under Eridu. From the flood silt at Shurupak to Augustus restoring 82 temples, it shows how they dug, measured and worshipped a past already ancient to them.
