Summary

A magnificent trading vessel embarks on a royal expedition to a mysterious, treasure-laden land called Punt. Is this journey, depicted on the wall of one of Egypt's impressive temples, mere myth, or was it a reality? NOVA follows a team of archaeologists and boat builders as they reconstruct the vessel shown on the mysterious carving, and then finally launch it into the Red Sea on a unique voyage of discovery
